Is it better to leave the hospital and go home on the eighth day or the ninth day?

There is no fixed answer to whether to choose the eighth day or the ninth day when you leave the hospital.

On the one hand, the choice of discharge time should be decided according to the patient's specific condition and the doctor's advice, and should not pay too much attention to the specific discharge date. When the condition is stable, the general doctor will allow the patient to leave the hospital.

On the other hand, some traditional customs think that the 3rd, 6th and 9th of the lunar calendar are unlucky days, because "3rd, 6th and 9th" all mean "duo" in ancient Chinese, so these three days mean that the patient may be ill for some time. However, this is only a traditional custom, which has no practical influence on decision-making in real life.

Generally speaking, whether to leave the hospital in the eighth or ninth grade should depend on the illness, doctor's advice and personal or family customs.
