Diet

Get plenty of rest and avoid strenuous activity for at least 2 weeks.
If you feel pain or discomfort, take the medications prescribed by your doctor on time.
Keep the surgical incision or suture site clean and dry, and change the dressing as directed by your doctor.
If you experience fever, bleeding, severe pain, or abnormal discharge, contact the clinic immediately.

First days: Consume clear liquids (water, diluted natural fruit juice, thin soup).
The following days: Gradually add soft, light foods such as soft rice, mashed potatoes, vegetable soup, and yogurt.
Consuming fresh vegetables, fruits, and fiber helps improve bowel function and prevent constipation.
Avoid fatty, fried, and gassy foods (heavy grains, carbonated drinks) in the first week.
Drinking enough water (at least 8 glasses a day) is very important to prevent dehydration and speed up the healing process.

Light walking is recommended after a few days, as it helps with blood circulation and prevents clots.
Avoid heavy lifting and strenuous exercise until your doctor approves.
Return to daily activities is usually possible between 2 and 4 weeks after surgery (depending on the type of procedure).

The first post-discharge visit is usually 7 to 10 days later.
The pathology results (if a biopsy was taken) will be reviewed and explained by the doctor at the next visit.
Continuing treatment or dietary changes will be determined by the doctor based on the patient’s condition.
