Can you drink yogurt with appendicitis?

Some patients with appendicitis can drink yogurt, while others cannot, depending on their condition and whether they need surgery or not. If the appendicitis is mild and anti-inflammatory treatment is needed without surgery, yogurt can be consumed. Because yogurt contains many proteins and also many beneficial bacteria, it can help gastrointestinal motility and reduce the symptoms of appendicitis such as bloating and poor exhaustion. However, if the patient is preparing for surgery, he or she usually cannot drink it, especially 6-8 hours before surgery, when he or she needs to be completely prohibited from eating and drinking. Therefore, it is necessary to consult with the attending physician as to whether or not you can drink yogurt. After having appendicitis, you should also not drink drinks containing alcohol, do not eat excessively spicy food, and have a proper intake of fresh fruits and green vegetables and a proper intake of low-fat, high-quality protein.
