Ask Dr. Carolle |
 I am planning to have surgery. I have heard that people who are under stress and undergo surgery take a longer time to recover. Is that true?
 Yes, it is true. According to many studies, patients who used one of the various types of relaxation techniques appeared to have a less complicated and shorter recovery, as well as requiring less pain medication. I would advise researching relaxation methods such as deep breathing, meditation, self-hypnosis, etc.
