Spontaneous pneumothorax & diving

Hello,

 

I have my own diving company and I am working as a commercial diver, mainly in inland waters.

Diving after a thoracic sympathectomy

Hi all,

I'm considering going through an endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy as a treatment for facial hyperhidrosis. I’m a bit reluctant about the surgery as I’m a diver and the procedure in the chest cavity. I would like to know if this surgery might prevent me to work as a commercial diver or if it could potentially cause any dive-related complication.
Thanks for the help.
Best,
Gabe
