Patient's question:
Each menstrual period lasts for 8-10 days to be completely clean. There is mild cervical erosion and hypertrophy.Doctor's answer:
Medical Analysis: Hello!1. Observe urination: Early encouragement, guidance, and assistance in urination for the patient. For those with significant difficulty urinating, induction of urination can be performed, and catheterization may be necessary if needed.
2. Early mobility: Except for high-risk patients, the patient can be guided to perform appropriate turning and movement in bed within 6 hours post-surgery. After 6–8 hours, they can get out of bed and gradually increase activity levels.
3. Pain management: Postoperative patients may experience varying degrees of pain. Instruct the patient to relax, as the pain can often subside on its own. If it does not, analgesics can be administered.
4. Perineal care: Postoperatively, the perineum can be cleaned with a 1/5000 potassium permanganate solution or a 0.1% chlorhexidine solution twice daily to prevent retrograde infection of the uterine cavity during catheterization.
5. Dietary considerations: Postoperatively, a nutritious soft diet should be consumed, and the intake of irritating foods should be reduced. If recurrence is a concern, the 【TiaoGongXiaoZhiPiao】 can be used for care to achieve complete eradication of the root cause.
6. Routine care: The patient should lie flat without a pillow for 6 hours to avoid raising the head too early, which may cause cerebrospinal fluid to seep from the puncture site into the subarachnoid space, leading to low intracranial pressure, stretching of intracranial veins and meninges, and resulting in headaches.
Recommendations: For patients with large surgical wounds and significant bleeding, a uterine balloon catheter is often placed postoperatively. Saline solution (8–10 ml) is injected into the balloon to compress the bleeding site. Postoperatively, observe vaginal bleeding. If a large amount of fresh blood is discharged, report it to the doctor immediately and follow medical advice for treatment. If there are no abnormalities, the uterine balloon catheter is usually removed 24 hours post-surgery.
