The recovery time after gastric perforation cannot be generalized and is usually related to the severity of the patient’s condition. In general, if the gastric perforation is detected in time and is caused by benign lesions, a gastric tube should be left in place for about 2-4 days after surgery, and a liquid diet should be allowed on the second day after removal, and the transition to semi-liquid after 1-2 days, and the sutures should be removed 7 days after surgery. If the gastric perforation is serious and a major gastrectomy is chosen, the patient will need more than 2 weeks to recover. In addition, for gastric perforation caused by tumor, the recovery time after surgery is related to the size and stage of the tumor, and some patients may take 1 month or even longer to recover. It is suggested that patients should pay attention to chewing and swallowing slowly after surgery, which can make the food better digested and absorbed, and help to reduce the burden of stomach and promote the recovery of the organism.
