A few questions about Post-Operation

[Tenex]

I had a few questions regarding post-op would be great if I could get some expert advise or just experience. FYI I have done 2600 grafts.


1) I currently experience some pain in the "recipient" area, this is more of a sharp pain that comes for a few seconds and goes and is just specific to certain areas but my concern is that prior to operation, I experienced a similar type of pain on my scalp in the areas that I later lost the hair in. Is this normal?

2) How much physical activity is too much in the first few days post operation? I still went for a walk, did some shopping etc.... Could this change anything and when can I see myself fully exercising (ie: weight lifting)?

3) If for any reason, I accidentally dislodge a graft, will I notice it?

4) I am in tele-sales which means I sit a lot infront of the computer and make a lot of phone calls, How many days should I wait before I go back to work?

5) How long can I wear the baseball cap at a time? The post-op notes I have says use it only if it is absolutely essential. I do need it every time I go out....
