Post-operative care for uterine fibroids is just as important as the surgery and can also cause damage to the body if not well taken care of. Now that the hospital stay for surgery is shorter, what are the precautions patients should take when returning home? So let’s learn about it below. 1, wound care: pay attention to keep the wound clean, dry, etc., generally about 10 days to completely heal the wound. If it is laparoscopic surgery, you can take a bath in about 5 days, open surgery or wait 10 days. It should be reminded that at present, both minimally invasive surgery and open surgery are generally hospitalized in about 3 days, which is a short period of time, so patients should pay attention to whether the wound is red, swollen, hot and painful after returning home to prevent the occurrence of infection and inflammation. 2.Menstrual condition: Because the surgery of uterine fibroids will be chosen at the end of menstruation, so usually menstruation will come about 1 month after the operation, and it is normal to have menstrual disorder in the first 2 months, so there is no need to be too alarmed. If the normal menstrual cycle does not resume 2-3 months after surgery, you should go to the hospital for examination or follow-up. 3, life and living: after surgery, pay attention not to overexert yourself, avoid doing actions that will cause abdominal pressure within 2 weeks after surgery, such as bending, squatting, climbing stairs, cycling, lifting heavy objects, etc., which will make the wound painful and may also cause pelvic congestion. Routinely after surgery, patients are advised to recuperate at home for about 1 month, and can exercise appropriately according to their physical condition. Keep the vulva clean and dry, conjugal intercourse is recommended after 1 month of surgery. 4, dietary attention: post-operative food should not be too early, generally after the anal exhaust began to drink a small amount of water, such as no discomfort, can eat liquid food, such as rice soup, vegetable soup, etc., and then gradually transition to soft food and ordinary food, eat more light food and fruits and vegetables, but does not include some easy to produce gas fruits and vegetables, such as: groundnuts, beans, onions, etc., will cause abdominal flatulence.
