Patient's question:
I was hospitalized on September 16th for an ectopic pregnancy. I underwent laparoscopic surgery to remove the affected fallopian tube. I was discharged on September 21st. Can I take a bath now? There is still a postoperative adhesive bandage on my navel.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if the wound is not contagious, you can remove the adhesive bandage three days after the stitches are removed. Health advisors recommend that as long as there are no symptoms of redness, swelling, or inflammation in the wound, you can now take a bath. Additionally, for patients with ectopic pregnancy during treatment, their dietary condition and care are also very important. Patients should pay close attention to rest, engage in appropriate activities to avoid unnecessary injuries, maintain a balanced diet in daily life, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and exercise more to enhance their immunity.
