I felt nauseous and vomited a few days after gastric cancer surgery

Patients with gastric cancer may experience nausea and vomiting after surgery, which may be due to the failure of gastrointestinal function to recover or anastomotic leakage. It is recommended to seek medical treatment in time and receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

1. Gastrointestinal function has not recovered: If it is in the early stage, it may be because the gastrointestinal function has not fully recovered, causing the above symptoms. Generally, no special treatment is required, and it will gradually ease as the body gradually recovers;

2. Anastomotic fistula: If anastomotic fistula occurs, active anti-infection treatment is required, and analgesics should be used as prescribed by the doctor to improve the symptoms of pain. At the same time, attention should be paid to dietary conditioning, with light and easily digestible food as the main food, and spicy and irritating food and raw and cold food should be avoided to avoid aggravating the condition. If necessary, parenteral nutrition support can be used to supplement the energy and various vitamins required by the body, which will help promote wound healing and disease recovery.

It is also considered to be related to pyloric obstruction. At this time, a complete abdominal CT scan is needed to confirm the diagnosis and give targeted treatment. In daily life, you should pay attention to rest more, ensure adequate sleep time, and try to reduce staying up late for a long time. In addition, you should also keep a good mood and don't give yourself too much psychological pressure. You can appropriately participate in some aerobic exercise to strengthen your physical fitness, such as jogging or swimming, which can improve your immunity.
