Patient's question:
After minimally invasive surgery for uterine fibroids, the incisions made on the abdomen, covered with gauze, how many days can the gauze be removed? How many days can I take a bath?Doctor's answer:
Laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery: You can remove the sterile gauze from the wound site one week after discharge.If the wound is healing well, with no other discharge and scab shedding, you can take a bath. Showering is recommended; soaking in a tub is not allowed. After bathing, always keep the incision clean and dry.
For severe uterine fibroid patients, it is advised to seek immediate medical attention and follow the doctor's recommendations for prompt treatment. Do not switch to new medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect on the treatment outcome.
