How long is the recovery period after brain tumor surgery?
Recovery time varies but typically ranges from a few weeks to several months, depending on the extent of surgery and individual factors. Generally, hospital stays last 3–10 days, with initial recovery taking 4–8 weeks. Full recovery, including regaining cognitive and physical functions, may take months to a year. Rehabilitation, such as physical and speech therapy, may be needed. Follow-up care, including MRIs and monitoring, is crucial. Always consult a neurosurgeon for personalized recovery timelines and post-surgical care recommendations.
