What dietary precautions should be taken for a hernia?

Patient's question:

Wasn't my stomach and intestines particularly bad before? Then I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and they said it was a hernia. Then, they prescribed me many medications for the stomach and intestines. After taking them for a week, it didn't get better. I wonder if it's still related to diet. What dietary precautions should be taken for a hernia?

Doctor's answer:

In terms of diet for hernia, there are not too many restrictions. Avoid fatty and greasy foods, and avoid overeating. If you have a hernia, it's important to seek active treatment. With the advancement of modern medicine, the success rate of surgery is relatively high. There is also a minor procedure that allows you to return to normal work and life within two to three months after the surgery. After the surgery, appropriate activity is recommended to prevent adhesion, avoid heavy physical labor, and get plenty of rest. Oral anti-inflammatory medications can also be taken for preventive purposes.
