Dietary restrictions after bone grinding surgery in Shanghai Ruijin Hospital

Shanghai Ruijin Hospital is a real hospital, which has a high reputation in the field of plastic surgery. Bone grinding surgery is a common plastic surgery, which changes the facial contour by cutting cheekbones, mandibular angle bones and other parts. During postoperative recovery, patients need to pay attention to the reasonable combination of diet to speed up wound healing and promote physical recovery. The following are the dietary restrictions recommended by Shanghai Ruijin Hospital after bone grinding surgery.

1. Avoid irritating food

For a period of time after surgery, it is necessary to avoid eating irritating food, such as pepper, onion, ginger, garlic, etc. These foods may cause oral irritation and increase the risk of wound infection. In addition, acidic food should also be avoided as far as possible, such as lemon, yogurt, etc. Irritant and acidic foods may have adverse effects on wound healing and prolong the recovery time.

During this period, you can choose warm, non irritating food, such as light rice porridge, noodles, tofu, vegetables, etc. Try to avoid greasy or spicy food to avoid aggravating the gastrointestinal burden.

2. Pay attention to the taste of food

Due to certain swelling and pain on the face after surgery, the taste of food may be affected. In order to enable patients to fully obtain nutrition, soft and chewable food can be selected. For example, porridge, cooked vegetables and fruit puree are all good choices. These foods are easy to digest and will not cause discomfort to patients during eating.

In addition, cutting food into small pieces or using a food grinder to stir it into a thick shape can also increase the taste of food and reduce the difficulty of eating.

3. Supplement sufficient protein and vitamins

During postoperative recovery, maintaining good nutrition intake is essential for wound healing and rehabilitation. Protein is an important nutrient necessary for wound healing, which can be supplemented by intake of lean meat, poultry, fish, bean products, dairy products and other foods.

In addition, vitamins also play an important role in wound healing. Vitamin C contributes to the synthesis of collagen and can be taken by eating fresh fruits and vegetables. Vitamin K can promote blood coagulation and can be supplemented by eating green leafy vegetables such as kelp, spinach and cauliflower.

4. Drink more water and keep adequate water intake

During postoperative recovery, adequate water intake is very important for discharging body wastes and maintaining good intestinal function. In addition, water also helps blood circulation and promotes wound healing.

It is recommended to drink enough water every day to maintain the water balance of the whole body. At the same time, you can drink moderate amount of warm water, fresh fruit juice, etc., to supplement water while taking in some necessary nutrients.

summary

Bone grinding surgery is a complicated plastic surgery, and postoperative dietary restriction is very important for the rehabilitation of patients. Shanghai Ruijin Hospital advised patients to avoid irritant food, choose soft and chewable food, supplement adequate protein and vitamins, and maintain adequate water intake after surgery. Only by properly adjusting diet can patients better promote wound healing and speed up the rehabilitation process.
