Postoperative care of pelvic adhesion patients- dietary guidelines

When infected by bacteria or virus, the pelvic organs will have inflammatory changes. And these inflammatory changes easily induce pelvic congestion, edema and increased secretions, finally leading to pelvic adhesion. For the treatment of pelvic adhesion, surgical treatments are accepted by most patients. Then what should patients pay attention to after the surgery? What should they eat and not eat?

 

Generally speaking, after the surgery, patients are not recommended to eat spicy food and drink carbonic acid beverage, wine, etc. Surgery only eliminates the existed adhesion; it doesn't remove the lesions. These food and drinks are likely to stimulate the lesions, causing the recurrence of pelvic inflammation. As a result, the pelvic adhesion is easy to recur. So patients should not eat these foods after surgery.

 

In addition, after doing the surgery, patients should also avoid food like sweet potato and beans. These foods are easy to induce flatulence, causing abdominal distension and discomfort.

 

Besides, patients had better limit the intake of greasy food, lest the functions of spleen and stomach should be affected, adding difficulties to absorption of nutrients. And this will make the patients weaker, making it difficult for the patients to recover.

  

At last, except the above forbidden food, there is still some food which patients should eat more after the surgery. These foods include vegetables and fruit. Dietary fiber in these foods can reduce the cholesterol in blood, avoiding constipation.

    

However, in order to prevent infection and recurrence of the disease, and recover soon, only diet is not enough; patients should also pay attention to some other postoperative cares. Patients should take extra care for personal hygiene and generally take some anti-inflammatory and bactericidal drugs like fuyan pill to accelerate the postoperative recovery.

 

All in all, after the surgery, pelvic adhesion patients should eat more fruits and vegetables, less stimulating food. At the same time, in order to help the postoperative recovery, patients can choose traditional Chinese medicine to recuperate. This will be beneficial to one's health. Of course, in order to reduce the damage caused by surgical treatment, patients might as well try conservative therapies at first after diagnosis. Wish all patients recover at an early date!
