Patient's question:
I have had a cervical polypectomy for half a month now, but I don't know what to pay attention to in daily life. I want to ask what can be eaten after a cervical polypectomy?Doctor's answer:
After the surgical removal of cervical polyps, it is recommended to avoid spicy and irritating foods in your diet. You can consume more fresh vegetables and fruits, primarily to supplement various vitamins, which helps in wound healing. This includes apples, durian, celery, cabbage, lettuce, etc. During the postoperative recovery period, it is important to avoid sexual activity and avoid taking baths. These measures help prevent infection. During the crusting and shedding phases, pay attention to the amount of vaginal bleeding. Generally, it should not exceed menstrual flow. If there is excessive bleeding, seek medical attention promptly for a check-up and hemostatic treatment to prevent anemia caused by excessive blood loss.
