Moreover, a weakened immune system can leave you susceptible to infection, particularly at the site of your surgical wound but also in the sinuses, nose and mouth, skin, and urinary tract. You may also be less able to fight off illnesses such as a cold, the flu, or pneumonia. And illness and infection can seriously hinder post-operative healing.
