Laparoscopy is the minimally invasive technique and has made patients life easier. It is the bloodless and method of surgery, which overcomes all the drawbacks of traditional surgery.  It is a common misconception that one needs a minimal care post laparoscopic surgery. But there are certain tips to follow to quickly restore your normal health condition.

Avoid infection

Although laparoscopic surgery does not involve a large cut, unlike traditional surgery. So you must monitor the wound and immediately report the doctor if there is oozing or bleeding or pus, redness, and soreness.  You can take a shower or bath after two days of surgery but avoid swimming in a pond until two weeks to prevent infection.

Avoid strain

Avoid strenuous activities like exercise or running or heavy lifting for the first few weeks so that the internal wounds heal completely.  A strain may create pressure on the area of surgery resulting in pain and bleeding.   Avoid going to work for a week but mild walking is enough!

Healthy Diet

On the first day after surgery, you may take light liquid such as apple juices to avoid stomach upset and later resume your regular diet. Eat and drink healthy to avoid dehydration and constipation. Fast food may deprive you of essential nutrients in the body, which may delay the wound healing process.
