Summarize this article:

While you clean your wounds, inspect them for signs of an infection. Symptoms include redness, swelling, pus coming from the wounds, and a hot sensation around the wounds. You may also have a fever.Call your doctor right away if you spot any signs of an infection. Staying mobile is an important part of recovery. While a full recovery can take 4-6 months, get back to your daily life as soon as possible. Start with small tasks like walking around your home, cooking, and cleaning. Then begin leaving your home and doing some shopping or going for a light walk in the neighborhood. Don’t climb on anything until you’re fully healed. Speak with your doctor if any activities cause you a lot of pain. If you’re still on painkillers, avoid operating cars or other motor vehicles until you’re no longer taking them. Make sure you’re able to press down both pedals before driving.
Contact your doctor if you see signs of an infection. Begin resuming your daily activities after 2 weeks if you can.
