Patient's question:
I had a gynecological surgery half a month ago. Just now, my family cooked dishes with chili peppers. I ate some celery and peanuts from the dish. I only ate a few bites and didn't eat much. Is there no problem? I know about dietary restrictions. I only ate this dish for dinner today, so I had a couple of bites. Can I drink more hot water to flush it out?Doctor's answer:
According to your description and your current condition, apart from the discomforts without gynecological diseases. Generally, it is still recommended to pay more attention to a light diet and coordinate with appropriate activities. If you have very little bowel movements, such as a few mouthfuls of chili, it will not interfere with the incision at all. Therefore, you should not be too nervous or worried. Regular follow-up checks during recovery are sufficient. After surgery, it is best to avoid extremely cold and spicy foods to prevent bleeding and abdominal pain, which are beneficial for wound healing. Eating a little less is also not a concern.
