You can usually get out of bed 6-8 hours after appendicitis surgery, but sometimes it can take up to a day later, depending on the patient’s type of anesthesia, metabolism of the anesthetic, and physical condition, among other factors. If the patient had epidural anesthesia, he or she can start walking out of bed 6-8 hours after surgery, but should not walk too much. If the patient has had general anesthesia, but the anesthetic has not been completely metabolized, he or she may still feel dizzy and unwell eight hours after surgery, and it is necessary to extend the time to get out of bed. If the patient has severe appendicitis and has a drainage tube in the abdomen, as well as cardiac monitoring and other conditions, it is also necessary to extend the time to get out of bed. Therefore, it is necessary to consult with the attending physician for the specific time to get out of bed. After getting out of bed and walking, it helps to promote gastrointestinal function peristalsis, so it is still recommended that patients leave bed and move around as early as possible.
