Can you eat garlic after hemorrhoid surgery?

You can’t eat garlic after having hemorrhoid surgery because garlic is a spicy, irritating food that can cause irritation to the anal canal and rectal mucosa, causing mucosal congestion and also affecting anal wound healing. Do not eat spicy and irritating foods after hemorrhoid surgery, such as chili, mustard, pepper, ginger, onion, garlic, etc. After surgery, you should eat more fiber-rich foods and fresh vegetables and fruits, such as celery, spinach, cabbage, apples, bananas, dragon fruit, etc. The food should not be too refined or too fine, and the diet should be moderate and not overeating.
