How many days does it take to recover after uterine fibroid surgery?

It takes 20 to 60 days to recover from uterine fibroid surgery. The specific time depends on factors such as the surgical method, personal physical recovery ability, and postoperative care.

Uterine fibroid surgery is a common gynecological surgery, including laparoscopic surgery, laparotomy, hysteroscopy, vaginal surgery, etc. No matter which surgical method is used, it will cause certain damage to the body, so recovery takes some time. If you choose hysteroscopy or vaginal surgery, the trauma is relatively small and the recovery is relatively fast. If the postoperative care is correct, it will take about 20 times to recover. If the patient chooses laparotomy, the personal physical fitness is relatively poor, and the postoperative care is not good, resulting in local infection, it will take about 60 days to heal.

There are many factors that affect physical recovery, so you should do a good job of nursing after surgery, keep the wound clean and dry, and avoid contact with water too early to avoid postoperative infection. You should also eat a light diet. You can eat more foods with high protein content such as eggs, meat, and milk, which have a good effect on wound healing. Avoid eating spicy foods such as peppers and ginger.

If symptoms such as wound pain, abscesses, redness and swelling occur after the operation, it is recommended to go to the hospital for treatment in time. The doctor can adjust the treatment plan according to the patient's actual situation.
