Foods to Avoid During Post-Surgery Care
Post-appendix surgery care, especially in the final recovery phase, plays a crucial role in healing and preventing complications. Dr. Arun Bhardwaj emphasizes the importance of dietary management during this time. Patients should avoid:
Spicy Foods: Spices can irritate the digestive tract and slow down healing.
Fried and Fatty Foods: These can be difficult to digest and may cause discomfort or bloating.
High-Fiber Foods: While fiber is generally healthy, after appendix surgery, it’s best to avoid high-fiber foods like raw vegetables, legumes, and whole grains until your digestive system fully recovers.
Carbonated Drinks: These can cause gas and bloating, which may be uncomfortable during recovery..
