Things to note about diet after appendicitis gas discharge

After suffering from appendicitis, many people need surgical treatment. Although appendicitis surgery is now considered a minor operation, patients still need to pay attention to many things after the operation, especially in terms of diet. After appendectomy surgery, the patient cannot eat anything or drink water before passing gas. He can only eat after passing gas.

Note 1

After surgery for acute appendicitis, you cannot eat anything, including water, before ventilation.

Note 2

After surgery for acute appendicitis, you can drink some warm water after ventilation, and then you can eat radish soup. It is a good time to eat radish soup, which is also called ventilation soup. Eating it is beneficial to intestinal peristalsis, allowing the patient to defecate earlier and restore gastrointestinal function earlier. (Generally ventilation will be done the next day after the operation, but it also depends on individual physical condition).

Note three

After surgery for acute appendicitis, you can eat some porridge or soup on the second day after ventilation, but be careful not to eat greasy food.

Note 4

After surgery for acute appendicitis, you can slowly increase your food intake after three or four days of ventilation, and start eating some fruits, such as bananas or apples. Other fruits should not be eaten for the time being.

Note five

Vegetables that can be eaten within 10 days after acute appendicitis surgery include winter melon, radish, cauliflower, etc. After the operation, you can stew some black fish soup for the patient to drink, which is conducive to the healing of the wound.

Therefore, a certain amount of vegetables should be included in the diet, especially green leafy vegetables. Such as green leafy vegetables, radishes, beans, fruits, whole grains, mushrooms, and fungus.
