RE 80yr old active male has had gall bladder operation. What are the prescribed do's and don'ts after such op. They sent him home the same day of surgery. Can he have sex, drive a car, eat spiced foods? what are the time parameters of healing so that he is okay after such an op. He always strives to get active again. He was driving within one week. He body surfs in the Pacific Ocean and swims ocean and pool as often as possible. When can he do all these things. How long/wks do his after checkups go on after such a surgery on 9/15. Thanks. Wants to know.
