Patient's question:
When I was young, I often heard them say that I had a hernia, but at that time, our family's financial conditions were limited, so I didn't get treatment. Now that I'm older and can also earn money myself, I went to the hospital two days ago for surgery. The doctor asked me to pay attention to my diet. Hello. Can I drink tea after a hernia surgery?Doctor's answer:
When undergoing hernia surgery, it is important to avoid drinking tea and wait until the condition stabilizes before consuming it. After the surgery, it is necessary to use anti-inflammatory medication for treatment, as tea can interfere with the effectiveness of the medication. This is to prevent infection or a cold, as coughing after hernia surgery can interfere with the surgical outcome. It is essential to enhance nutrition, focusing on consuming soft and easily digestible foods while avoiding spicy and irritating foods to prevent constipation.
