After the ablation, you will be required to flop flat for several hours. You should not lift anything over 10 pounds for a couple of days. Any time that you cough, laugh, or sneeze for the first few days, you should put pressure over the area where on earth the ablation catheters were inserted. No strenuous activity or exercise should be done for about a week. You won't be capable of take a bath for the first week so that the wounds can heal, but you can shower.
It's a pretty simple procedure, and after only a few days you should be back to your regular activities.
