How long does it take to recover from a hand surgery?

I am a 33 year old male. I want to know how long does it take to recover from a hand surgery?

That is a very difficult question to answer without more detailed information. There are simple surgical procedures, such as a trigger finger, where the recovery is quite quick. However, with complicated procedures, such as complex fractures or nerve reconstructions, the recovery can take months. I suggest you discuss this with your surgeon. Good luck.
