The recommended time to start drinking after appendicitis surgery is at least one month later, and even longer. This is because antibiotics, such as cephalosporin antibiotics or penicillin antibiotics, need to be given after appendicitis surgery. If alcohol is consumed too early, alcohol will produce a disulfiram-like reaction with these drugs, which will cause flushing and difficulty in breathing, and may even endanger the patient’s life, so it is necessary to drink as late as possible. Also after surgery, the local wound healing process can be itchy and uncomfortable if there is alcohol stimulation, and sometimes it can lead to scarring hyperplasia, so try not to drink alcohol. If you need to drink alcohol, it is also best to drink when the incision is completely grown and there is no local redness or swelling. Therefore, the exact time to drink alcohol depends on the condition and can be consulted with the attending physician.
