What postoperative nursing care should be paid attention to in Nanjing Medical and Aesthetic Grade III Class A Hospital for breast augmentation?

Breast augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery in Nanjing Medical and Aesthetic Grade III Class A Hospital. After surgery, proper nursing is very important, which can promote wound healing and reduce postoperative complications. The following are some precautions for postoperative nursing of breast augmentation surgery:

Postoperative rest and posture maintenance

A few days after the operation, the patient needs to stay in bed absolutely to avoid strenuous exercise and excessive activity. When resting after surgery, the upper body should be kept as upright as possible. You can use a mattress or pillow to raise the upper body to reduce the pressure in the operation area. Maintaining correct posture is helpful to reduce postoperative pain and swelling, and promote wound healing.

During bed rest, patients need to avoid overexertion and sitting for a long time to prevent postoperative congestion. At the same time, change the lying position regularly to avoid being fixed in the same position for a long time, so as not to cause local pressure sores or discomfort.

Generally speaking, you can get out of bed properly the next day after surgery, but you still need to be careful to avoid strenuous exercise and overexertion.

Wound care and scar prevention

Immediate wound care is very important for postoperative rehabilitation. Patients should change the dressing regularly according to the doctor's advice to keep the wound clean and dry. Avoid forcefully touching, squeezing or stimulating the wound to prevent infection and laceration.

During wound healing, the patient needs to avoid liquid invasion, such as water, sweat, etc. Avoid direct sunlight within 3 months after operation to avoid scar deepening. If it is necessary to go out, you should use an umbrella or wear suitable clothes for sun protection.

In order to prevent postoperative scar deformity, patients can use the scar prevention ointment or gel recommended by the doctor, and carry out correct application and maintenance according to the doctor's instructions. Avoid using any ointment or external medication without the doctor's consent.

Postoperative diet and moisturizing

Within a few days after the operation, the patient needs to pay attention to the choice and quantity of diet. The diet should be light and easy to digest food, avoiding spicy and greasy food, so as not to affect the digestive function and recovery speed. It can increase the intake of foods containing high protein, such as fish, tofu, milk, etc., which is helpful for wound healing and recovery.

Postoperative skin also needs special moisturizing to avoid dryness and cracking. Appropriate skin care products can be used according to the doctor's instructions, and cosmetics and bath products containing irritant ingredients can be avoided.

Follow up and postoperative recuperation

Regular follow-up after surgery is very important, and doctors will make professional assessment and guidance according to the recovery of patients. Patients need to follow the doctor's instructions for further consultation and relevant examinations to monitor recovery and diet adjustment.

The recovery period after breast augmentation surgery is long, so patients need to wait patiently and take proper physical conditioning. Avoid strenuous activities and prolonged sitting. At the same time, carry out relevant exercises and massages according to the doctor's suggestions to promote the recovery of the shape of the chest and the elasticity of the skin.

To sum up, the nursing work after breast augmentation surgery in Nanjing Medical and Aesthetic Grade III Class A Hospital includes rest and posture maintenance, wound care and scar prevention, postoperative diet and moisturizing, return visit and postoperative recuperation. Only with proper postoperative care and precautions, patients can recover faster and achieve satisfactory plastic results.
