After minimally invasive lumbar herniated disc surgery, you can usually take a shower about 2~3 days time after the stitches are removed. Minimally invasive surgery for lumbar disc herniation has the advantages of small surgical incision, less trauma, and quicker postoperative recovery compared with traditional surgery. Minimally invasive surgery usually requires 1~2 small incisions in the operative area. After surgery, the incision can be removed in about 5~7 days after regular incision and medication change, and the stitches can be removed in about 2~3 days after the removal of the stitches and you can take a shower after the stitches have healed. After removing the incision sutures, due to the existence of needle holes at the sutures, it is not possible to come into contact with domestic water at this time, so as to prevent water from entering the needle holes, which may lead to localized infections. Therefore, it is necessary to wait for 2 to 3 days after the removal of the sutures until the pinholes have completely healed before bathing and other activities. After contact with domestic water, you need to observe the condition of the incision, and when abnormalities such as redness, swelling and oozing occur, you should seek medical treatment promptly. When the sutures are removed after minimally invasive surgery for lumbar disc herniation, you can take a shower in about 2~3 days, and when abnormalities occur at the incision, you should consult a doctor in time.
