How many days after a painless abortion procedure can one take a shower?

Patient's question:

How many days after a painless abortion procedure can one take a shower?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, you should prepare well before the surgery. On the day of the surgery, do not wash, as the surgery has already been disinfected. You can shower the next day with appropriate water temperature. The water should not be too hot or too cold. Avoid getting cold when washing your hair or showering, and pay attention to protecting yourself!
Guidelines:
Generally, you can shower or bathe half a month after an abortion without anesthesia, but avoid tub baths. Rest appropriately after an abortion without anesthesia, and reduce reading newspapers or watching TV. Avoid heavy physical labor. Eat more nutritious foods, especially those rich in protein, to help your body recover quickly. Generally, avoid cold drinks for 7-10 days after surgery, and avoid spicy foods within a month.
