Nanyang Breast Augmentation Hospital - How to alleviate the discomfort during the recovery period?
Nanyang Breast Augmentation Hospital is a medical institution focusing on breast plastic surgery, providing safe and efficient plastic surgery services for patients. Although plastic surgery can improve breast shape, the recovery period after surgery needs careful care and attention. The following will introduce how to relieve the discomfort in the recovery period of surgery from four aspects: postoperative pain, edema, sleep and diet.
1. Relieve postoperative pain
Postoperative pain is one of the common uncomfortable symptoms of plastic surgery. First, patients should use analgesics reasonably according to the doctor's advice. Do not increase or reduce the dosage by yourself, so as not to affect the recovery process after surgery. Secondly, the pain can be relieved by local cold compress. The ice bag is placed around the breast for 10-15 minutes each time to effectively reduce postoperative pain. In addition, it is also very important to keep the breast well rested, and avoid strenuous exercise and oppression to reduce pain.
In addition to the above methods, patients can also try some non drug treatments. For example, pain relaxation training, through deep breathing and muscle relaxation exercises to reduce pain. In addition, massage can also be used to gently massage the tissues around the breast to promote blood circulation and lymph flow and reduce postoperative pain.
2. Reduce postoperative edema
After surgery, edema may appear around the breast. In order to alleviate postoperative edema, patients can use cold compress and hot compress alternately. In the first 3 days, cold compress can be used to reduce edema. After that, hot compress can be used to promote blood circulation and lymph flow, and promote the discharge of edema. In addition, the patient should properly raise the pillow height during sleep, which is conducive to lymphatic drainage and reduces edema.
In addition, exercise is also an important means to reduce postoperative edema. The patient can carry out moderate upper limb movements, such as raising the hand and rotating the wrist, which helps to promote lymph circulation and edema regression. However, patients should avoid strenuous exercise and lifting heavy objects to avoid affecting wound healing.
3. Improve sleep quality
After surgery, some patients may experience sleep problems. Try the following methods to improve sleep quality. First, keep a proper sleeping position. It is recommended that the patient use semi sitting or side lying position to reduce the pressure on the breast and help reduce discomfort. Secondly, keep a good sleeping environment, such as keeping the room quiet, the temperature appropriate, and avoiding light stimulation. In addition, regular work and rest time and relaxed bedtime preparation activities, such as foot soaking, listening to soothing music, can also help patients fall asleep.
4. Reasonable diet
The postoperative diet has a great impact on the comfort and effect of the recovery period. First of all, patients should avoid eating spicy and irritant food, such as pepper, ginger, etc., so as not to stimulate the breast and cause discomfort. Secondly, the diet should be balanced, and more fiber rich foods should be taken, such as vegetables, fruits, whole wheat bread, etc., which will help promote intestinal peristalsis and prevent constipation. In addition, patients also need to drink more water to maintain good water metabolism, which is helpful for waste discharge and edema reduction.
In a word, the discomfort in the recovery period after surgery is inevitable, but through reasonable nursing and self-management, many discomfort symptoms can be alleviated.
