How long does it usually take for a lymphatic fluid leakage wound to heal?

Lymphatic fluid leakage is one of the postoperative complications, and the specific healing time is related to the size of the wound. Normal recovery usually takes 3 to 5 days, but in more serious cases, it may take 1 to 2 months to recover. Lymphatic fluid leakage is usually caused by damage to the lymphatic vessels during surgery and is a post-operative complication. Recovery is usually gradual in 3 to 5 days after surgery for patients with small trauma. During the recovery period, patients should eat a low-salt, low-fat diet with plenty of protein and easily digestible foods. If the trunk of the lymphatic vessels is injured during surgery, some patients may need 1 to 2 months to recover. The exact time varies depending on the individual’s physical condition, the severity of the disease and other factors.
