What are the reasons for fever after uterine fibroid surgery?

Patient's question:

Hello, doctor. My wife is 33 years old this year and has uterine fibroids. She just had surgery yesterday, and the doctor said the surgery was very successful. However, for some reason, she has been having a fever ever since. Hello, what could be the reason for a fever after uterine fibroid surgery?

Doctor's answer:

If there is a recurrence of discomfort and fever after surgery, it may also be caused by poor nursing care or even a re-infection. In such cases, it is important to rest and seek medical attention for blood tests if necessary. Medication adjustments should be made based on the results, and body temperature should be closely monitored. Appropriate use of antibiotics is recommended. Generally, within about a week, the condition should stabilize. Carefully observe whether there is still a small amount of bleeding.
