02 Precautions for diet after appendicitis surgery
1. After the operation, the first choice was to eat liquid food, lean meat Congee, fish soup, lotus root starch, etc. Because the patient is relatively weak after surgery and their physical function has not recovered, eating liquid food can not only ensure nutritional needs but also reduce intestinal burden, allowing the body to recover faster.
2. Within 10 days after surgery, do not eat high protein foods such as eggs and milk, as well as foods containing a large amount of crude fiber such as chives and green leafy vegetables.
3. After 10 days of surgery, it is advisable to eat more coarse fiber foods to promote intestinal peristalsis and aid in bowel movements. At this time, it is important to pay attention to nutritional balance in diet, eat more vegetables in a timely manner to supplement vitamins for the body, and thus maintain smooth bowel movements.
4. Eat more foods containing vitamin C, such as oranges, tangerines, kiwis, and other fruits. It can promote wound healing.
5. Do not eat milk, soybean milk and other foods that are easy to cause flatulence, and do not drink strong tea, coffee, wine, carbonated drinks and other stimulants.
6. After surgery, it is important to maintain a regular diet, schedule meals, and avoid overeating or hunger. This can help the body form a conditioned reflex and aid digestion.
7. After surgery, eat slowly and chew carefully. The more times one chews, the more saliva is secreted in the mouth, in order to fully protect the gastric mucosa and reduce the burden on the gastrointestinal tract.
8. The temperature of the postoperative diet should be appropriate, with no scalding or cooling as the standard. It is recommended to drink water about an hour before breakfast every day.
