Traditional suture method has been used in hernia surgery for more than a day. Is the patient unable to eat because of severe pain a failure or a normal reaction?

Traditional suture belongs to tissue tension repair. It is a repair method using normal human tissues (excluding repair materials).

In fact, at present, most hospitals will not do this kind of repair, because the trauma is big, the recurrence rate is high (because the mechanism of hernia is the gradual disappearance or weakening of tissue collagen), and the pain lasts for a long time (because it is tension suture). For hospitals that are still doing tension suture, many doctors are not clear about the anatomical levels of pain triangle and death triangle. Normal activities can only be carried out half a month and one month after operation. Material repair belongs to tension-free suture, which can move normally in 3-7 days, so at present, hernia repair is still mainly based on material repair.

And according to what you said, you can't simply judge that some people have a lower pain threshold.

But it is also possible that the nerve was sutured during suture, which led to traction pain.

Eat after surgery until you are exhausted.

I suggest that you don't be nervous for the time being and continue to pay attention. And pay attention to the exudation of the wound.
