Why Is Post Surgery Care Important?

As a leading homecare in Colorado, Inspiration Home Health Care, LLC prioritizes excellent care to our clients who are in their post-surgery stage.

Why is post surgery care important? It’s a crucial part of a patient’s healing process regardless of whether it’s a minor or major operation.

A medical procedure that includes anesthesia or an incision has a risk of complications and infections. Hence post-operative rehabilitation is crucial to ensure a safe recovery.

A study from the University of South Florida Department of Colon and Rectal Surgeries reports that around 5% of infections occur in all surgeries while 33% are in abdominal surgeries.

Do you want to recover quickly? While your recovery timeframe varies from others, Verywellhealth.com provides do’s and don’ts after post-surgery.

  • Don’t drive too soon
  • Don’t lift until you’re fully recovered
  • Don’t smoke
  • Do use pain medication as advised
  • Do take your full course of antibiotics
