How many days can I eat after appendicitis surgery?

Hello, appendicitis surgery is divided into traditional surgery and laparoscopic surgery. Traditional surgery usually has 65,438+0 transverse incisions at Maxwell's point, and the incision length is usually about 5 cm. This kind of incision injury is relatively large, and the recovery of intestinal function after operation, including normal activities, will be limited to some extent.

Laparoscopic surgery, which is commonly used now, belongs to minimally invasive surgery. Three incisions of 5 mm to 1 cm can be made in the abdominal cavity, and then the operation can be completed. The relative injury will be less, there will be a shorter fasting time, and you can get out of bed in a shorter time, so you should distinguish between these two situations.

If it is a traditional operation, it usually takes 3 to 5 days to return to normal diet. The normal diet here includes eating whatever you can, but you can't overeat. Laparoscopic surgery usually takes 2~3 days. After appendicitis operation, you can't eat or drink water before anus exhausts. Because the intestinal peristalsis slowed down after operation, the intestinal function did not recover, and eating too early aggravated the intestinal burden and delayed the recovery of the disease. If there is no obvious pain and discomfort 8 hours after operation, it is recommended to get out of bed in time to help the intestinal peristalsis recover. The diet is mainly liquid food, so that patients can eat a small amount of water or soup above millet porridge first. If there are no other uncomfortable symptoms, you can gradually increase the consistency of porridge or porridge. After operation, it is recommended not to eat cold, greasy and spicy food, avoid strenuous activities within 3 months, and eat normally after 3 months.
