Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

I am Dr. DADAPEER K, an Ophthalmologist and I will be answering your question.

I reviewed your history.

Doing push up exercises will not cause any problem now and you can go ahead with the exercises.
Doing exercises and other sternous physical activities are to be avoided in the immediate post operative period upto 3 months after surgery.

Hope this is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.
