The fact that you have had a bowel movement after appendicitis surgery indicates that bowel function has returned to normal. Appendicitis surgery includes both minimally invasive and open surgeries. Minimally invasive surgery involves the surgical removal of the appendix mainly under laparoscopy, while open surgery is the traditional surgical treatment. Regardless of the type of surgery, after the surgery, if you have a bowel movement, it means that the bowel function is now basically recovered and you can start eating. However, when the intestinal function has just recovered, avoid eating too much, you should eat small and frequent meals, with light and easy-to-digest food, and try to eat some thin and soft food. Avoid spicy, stimulating, greasy food, such as chili peppers, fatty meat and so on. In addition, after appendicitis surgery, pay attention to develop the habit of regular bowel movements, to keep the bowels smooth.
