After throat cyst surgery, you can usually eat after 24 hours and start to eat liquid food, such as rice soup or fish soup, etc., and you can resume normal diet after about 3~5 days. Throat cyst surgery requires anesthesia, and it usually takes about 6 hours for the anesthesia to wear off. After the anesthesia wears off, due to the trauma in the throat area, there will be swelling and discomfort, so you usually can’t eat much on the first day after surgery. After 24 hours after surgery, you can usually eat something appropriate, but you can only choose to eat liquid food, about 3~5 days later, the local swelling will gradually subside, the discomfort will gradually reduce, so you can eat a semi-liquid diet, but avoid oily, spicy and stimulating and too hard food, so as not to affect the recovery. During the recovery period of throat cyst surgery, the diet should be light, and attention should be paid to replenish nutrition, you can eat more food rich in vitamins and high quality protein, and drink more water, which is conducive to recovery. If there is any abnormality during the recovery period, go to the hospital in time.
