What should I pay attention to during appendicitis surgery?

Appendicitis is painful. Mild appendicitis can be treated with oral medications, and severe appendicitis can be treated with surgery. As long as the surgery is performed, it must be taken seriously. Any surgery has risks. There are many things to pay attention to after appendicitis surgery, such as eating a light diet, avoiding strenuous exercise, taking medications on time, maintaining a good attitude, etc. What should you pay attention to during appendicitis surgery? Let’s take a look at that next.

1. Preparation

1. Pants (you can’t wear tight clothes after the operation, a pantyhose or shorts is what you need).

2. Urine pot (please feel free to bring it. If it is within six hours after the operation and you are still on an IV and don’t want to go to the toilet, don’t bring it).

3. Millet porridge (when the doctor allows you to eat after the operation, it must be 4. after the doctor’s permission).

5. Toilet paper (please feel free).

2. Notes

1. You must be on an empty stomach before the operation and are not allowed to eat anything. The doctor will tell you this, not even water.

2. Many tests are required before surgery, including blood routine test, color Doppler ultrasound, urine test, etc. to confirm whether it is appendicitis.

It is estimated that you will have to run for a while, except for acute appendicitis. . .

3. Appendicitis surgery can be divided into minimally invasive and non-minimally invasive. The cost of minimally invasive surgery may be higher, but the operation is more intuitive and requires three holes to be made in the abdomen. I won’t explain it with pictures here, just search it yourself.

4. Don't be nervous and relax during the operation. Appendicitis can be regarded as the smallest surgical operation. After all kinds of equipment are installed, the anesthesia will begin. You must answer the doctor's questions carefully and don't be vague.

5. Generally speaking, you can get out of bed and move around a little six hours after the operation, but you still have to listen to your doctor. The anesthetic will generally wear off after six hours, and you may feel pain at this time. Generally speaking, you can tolerate it. If you really can't stand it, you can tell your doctor.

3. Suggestions

1. Do not drink alcohol and avoid eating raw, cold, or spicy foods. Eat less fried and indigestible foods. Dietary taboos

2. Avoid overeating and eat small meals frequently.

3. Prevent excessive fatigue. Because overwork can reduce the body's resistance to disease and cause the condition to suddenly worsen.

4. Be sure to listen to your doctor. For example, if the doctor tells you to get out of bed and move around, don't stay in bed all the time. It is beneficial to intestinal peristalsis and restores the body. Remember, don't eat if your doctor tells you not to.

, if exhaust is required. The doctor will tell you, follow his advice and wait to be discharged.
