Many female friends may suffer from cervical erosion due to improper diet in their daily lives, and usually undergo uterine cavity surgery. After undergoing uterine cavity surgery, their bodies will be very fragile, and there are many precautions in their daily lives. So, what should they pay attention to after undergoing uterine cavity surgery? Let's learn about it together with the editor!
What to pay attention to after uterine cavity surgery
After hysteroscopy surgery, many patients may experience a slight feeling of abdominal heaviness, but it usually improves the next day. However, at this point, it does not mean that the body has fully recovered, but rather that rest needs to be ensured. Especially for friends who usually have poor physical health, it is important to pay attention to rest and avoid doing physical activities.
After undergoing hysteroscopy surgery, women must pay attention to keeping their external genitalia clean. Sexual activity and swimming must be prohibited when the internal wounds of the body have not fully healed. If there is a slight bleeding symptom after hysteroscopy surgery, it is a normal phenomenon. But if the blood flow persists, it is necessary to seek medical treatment in a timely manner.
Many patients who have undergone hysteroscopy surgery have recovered very well during treatment, thinking that they have already recovered and do not need postoperative examinations. However, this idea is actually wrong. Although hysteroscopy surgery has a strong therapeutic effect on the cervix, the wound healing caused by it is not very easy, so regular postoperative examinations are still necessary.
Postoperative nursing of uterine cavity surgery
1. Early activity: Except for high-risk patients, patients can be guided to turn over and move around in bed within 6 hours after surgery. They can then get out of bed and gradually increase their activity levels 6-8 hours later.
2. Pain care: Postoperative patients may experience varying degrees of pain, and instructing them to undergo relaxation surgery can often relieve the pain on their own. If the pain cannot be relieved, analgesics can be given.
3. Observation of urination: Early supervision, guidance, and assistance for patients to urinate. For those who have difficulty urinating, they can be induced to urinate and given catheterization if necessary.
4. Dietary care: After surgery, nutritious soft foods can be consumed to reduce the intake of irritating foods.
5. Routine care: Lie flat on the pillow for 6 hours to avoid premature lifting of the head, which may cause cerebrospinal fluid to leak out of the meningeal cavity from the puncture site, resulting in low cerebral pressure and stretching of intracranial venous sinuses and meninges, causing headaches.
6. Perineal care: After surgery, 1/5000 potassium permanganate or 0.1% chlorhexidine solution can be used to scrub the perineum twice a day to avoid retrograde infection of the uterine cavity during catheterization.
