Bathing time after minimally invasive appendicitis surgery varies from 1-3 weeks after surgery, and sometimes longer again, depending on the severity of the condition, the postoperative recovery, and the way the sutures were closed. If the appendicitis is relatively mild and there is no significant redness, pain or oozing from the incision after the surgery. If the suture chosen is cosmetic, you can take a bath in about 7-10 days after surgery, but you cannot take a bath because it may irritate the wound and cause scarring. If the patient has severe appendicitis, such as perforated appendix or even periappendiceal abscess, and the incision is also red, swollen and oozing after surgery, the bathing time needs to be extended. If the patient has diabetes and the blood sugar is not well controlled, it is also necessary to extend the bathing time, so it is necessary to consult with the attending physician.
