Hello,
It is not related to surgery.
Avoid unwanted stress and anxiety. Relaxation techniques like yoga and meditation can help a bit.
If symptoms persist better to consult a psychiatrist and get evaluated. In that case, you might require anti-anxiety drugs like Clonazepam.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
