Yes, it is generally considered safe to fly after a PFO (patent foramen ovale) closure, but it's important to follow your doctor's specific advice. Most physicians recommend waiting a few weeks before flying to allow for proper healing and to assess any potential complications. Always consult with your healthcare provider to ensure that your individual situation is taken into account.
