Patient's question:
A woman is 34 years old this year, and her mental state has not been very good recently. She doesn't know what's wrong either. Please ask: What should she pay attention to in daily life after having an uterine polyp surgery?Doctor's answer:
1. Dietary Notes: After surgery, patients can consume nutrient-rich soft foods and gradually increase the intake of stimulating foods.2. Careful Observation of Urination: Early supervision, guidance, and assistance should be provided to help patients urinate. For those with difficulty urinating, techniques to facilitate urination can be used, and catheterization may be necessary if needed.
3. Early Mobilization: Except for high-risk patients, patients can be guided to perform appropriate movements (e.g., leg lifts) within 6 hours post-surgery. After 6–8 hours, they can start getting out of bed and gradually increase their activity level.
4. Pain Management: Postoperative patients may experience varying degrees of pain. It is advised to encourage relaxation, as the pain often subsides on its own. If the pain persists, analgesics can be administered.
