How long it takes to recover from back lipoma surgery depends on the patient’s physical condition, the size, location and depth of the lipoma, and the exact recovery time varies from person to person. Lipoma is a common benign soft tissue tumor, which occurs in the limbs, trunk and other parts of the body. Open lipoma surgery mainly involves cutting and digging out the lipoma, and then the skin is sutured and pressurized. If the volume of lipoma is relatively small, the location is relatively shallow, the patient’s physical condition is good, there is no infection manifestation, generally 12 days after the operation can remove the stitches, indicating the recovery of the operation area; if the volume of the lipoma is relatively large, the location is deeper, the postoperative bleeding and seepage is more, there may be infection manifestation, the recovery time will be prolonged, and the specific healing and recovery time will be different from one person to another. It is suggested that patients should take good care of the postoperative period, change the medication regularly, and take amoxicillin, cefaclor and other drugs for anti-infection treatment.
