Postoperative rehabilitation treatment for meningioma

Tumor is a common disease that occurs in people. There are two types of tumors: malignant tumors and benign tumors. For many people, malignant tumors are a more harmful type of tumor because they can turn into cancer. Well, that's just bragging. It's a relatively common tumor in the old Bu range, which causes great harm to people's brain health and sometimes directly affects people's life safety. Usually, surgery is required to achieve the desired treatment effect after a meningioma occurs. So what aspects should we pay attention to in the postoperative rehabilitation treatment of meningioma?

If you have a meningioma, don't panic. Meningioma is a benign tumor. Surgery is the main treatment method. Generally, if symptoms of meningioma appear, surgery should be performed as soon as possible. The smaller the tumor, the lower the risk and difficulty of surgery. Even if there are no related symptoms, surgery should be performed as soon as the examination finds that the tumor is growing. If the meningioma grows in a relatively superficial location, surgical treatment should be actively performed.

Surgical removal of meningioma is the most effective treatment. With the development of microsurgical techniques, the surgical results of meningiomas have been continuously improved, allowing most patients to be cured.

While maintaining good rest after surgery, patients also need to receive psychological care, maintain a positive and optimistic attitude, and actively take care of their personal lives.

What other care should patients need to pay attention to after meningioma surgery?

1. Diet: Eat a high-calorie, high-protein, vitamin and fiber-rich, low-fat, low-cholesterol diet, and eat less animal fat and pickled products. Avoid strong tea, coffee, tobacco, alcohol and other irritating foods. Take medicines on time and in the prescribed dosage as directed by your doctor. Do not stop, change, increase or decrease the dosage without authorization to avoid aggravating your condition.

2. Wound care: After the stitches are removed and the wound heals well, you can wash your hair after 2-3 weeks. But the movements should be gentle, and remember not to pick or scratch with your hands.

3. Rehabilitation: After 1-3 months of proper rest, you can resume normal physical labor. Keep exercising, combine work and rest, and have someone accompany you when you have difficulty moving to prevent falls.

4. Keep warm and prevent colds.

5. Outpatient follow-up after 3-6 months.
