How long to get strength back after bowel resection surgery?

Recovery time after bowel resection surgery varies by individual and the extent of the surgery. Generally, patients may start to feel stronger within a few weeks, but it can take several months to regain full strength and normal energy levels. Factors such as age, overall health, and adherence to post-operative care can influence recovery speed. It's important to follow your surgeon's advice and gradually increase activity as tolerated.
