We haven't had this kind of surgery but with abdominal surgery we usually keep them as quiet as possible for at least a week and don't allow ramps and the like for 10 days to sometimes as long as two weeks here.

Since this isn't a standard surgery ask your vet for a scedule idea before moving to the next step. (If you could put it up and mention that this is for a removed ulceration on the side, that would be useful since the stresses differ from the usual surgeries. Then it would be in the archives.)
