How long it takes to resume normal work after appendicitis surgery is based on the specific surgical method of appendicitis, the patient’s condition, and the nature of the work to determine the time to resume normal work. 1, open appendectomy: the surgery is usually performed in the right lower abdomen to cut a McKinsey incision, after the skin and subcutaneous tissue into the abdominal cavity, and then the appendix is removed, generally in 7-10 days after surgery wound The stitches can be removed and the wound can be engaged in light physical work such as clerical work in about 14 days; if you are engaged in moderate or heavy physical work, or if the symptoms of appendicitis are more serious such as purulent appendicitis or appendicitis with perforation, it usually takes about 30 days to resume normal work after surgery; 2. Minimally invasive appendectomy: The appendectomy is mainly performed with the assistance of laparoscopy, because it is minimally invasive Because the surgery is minimally invasive, there is no large surgical incision in the abdomen, so the healing after surgery will be relatively faster, and patients can generally be discharged from the hospital in 3-5 days. Of course, it is also mainly light physical work, and patients who are engaged in heavy physical work can be appropriately extended for another 5-10 days. In addition, after appendicitis, patients should pay more attention to their diet. Early on, some liquid and semi-liquid diet should be the mainstay, which should be as nutritious, light and easy to digest as possible to help post-operative patients enhance their nutrition and intestinal recovery. For the post-operative wound of appendicitis, it is necessary to return to the hospital regularly to change the medication to prevent wound infection and prolong the recovery time of the surgery. It is also important to visit the hospital regularly for follow-up examinations after surgery, which can help patients determine the degree of recovery and help them return to normal work and life more quickly.
