Patient's question:
My wife worked very hard to give birth to our baby, and she has been losing weight recently. I want to ask everyone how many days after a cesarean section can one eat rice? I think rice should be much more nutritious!Doctor's answer:
After women undergo cesarean section surgery, in addition to changing dressings and sterilizing them on schedule and using anti-inflammatory drugs to prevent incisional inflammation, dietary factors are quite crucial. After passing gas, they can gradually eat a liquid diet and then return to normal eating. Within the first month after a cesarean section, it is better to drink millet porridge, which is good for the absorption of nutrients by the gastrointestinal tract, the body's adjustment, and enhancing nutrition. Rice is relatively hard and can easily cause digestive system symptoms, so it is better to wait until at least two months after the cesarean section before eating rice.
