How to nurse after breast augmentation?
Breast augmentation surgery is a kind of cosmetic surgery, which can help women improve the shape of the chest and increase the fullness of the chest. Postoperative care is very important to help patients recover better and faster. Here are four aspects of post breast augmentation care.
Rest and activities after surgery
Rest after operation is very important and needs to be carried out under the guidance of doctors. The patient should try to avoid strenuous exercise and keep a good rest state to help the body recover. Under the guidance of professional doctors, some activities can be carried out properly, such as standing, walking, etc., but it is necessary to avoid standing or walking for a long time.
In addition, patients should avoid lifting too heavy objects and strenuous stretching exercises, so as not to cause too much pressure or traction on the chest and affect the surgical effect. Pay attention to maintaining a comfortable posture, and avoid leaning forward or bending the upper body too much.
In the balance between rest and activity, patients can perform moderate activities according to their own comfort and the doctor's instructions, but they must be careful not to overexert.
Care and cleaning of wounds
After operation, wound care is very important. It is normal that the patient may feel pain and discomfort within a few days after the operation. The doctor will give appropriate pain relief drugs according to personal conditions, and the patient should take them according to the doctor's instructions.
The patient needs to keep the wound clean and dry. When bathing, gently clean the wound with warm water and pat it dry with a clean soft towel. Patients should avoid using lotion containing alcohol or irritant ingredients to clean the wound, so as not to cause infection or irritation.
With the healing of the wound, the doctor will recommend the patient to use some anti-bacterial ointment or apply some vitamin E oil at an appropriate time to promote wound healing and reduce scar formation. The patient should report the wound condition to the doctor regularly, and follow the doctor's recommendations for wound care.
Wear appropriate underwear
After surgery, it is very important to wear proper underwear for the shaping and recovery of the chest. The doctor will give advice on continuing to use the bra according to personal conditions. Generally speaking, the bra after surgery should have good support, be able to stabilize the chest, and help reduce the burden on the chest.
When selecting bras, patients should pay attention to whether the size is appropriate to avoid too tight or too loose. A bra that is too tight will put pressure on the wound, while a bra that is too loose will not provide enough support. Choose materials with good permeability to avoid the impact of static electricity and irritation on the wound.
At the same time, the patient should pay attention to the correct wearing method when wearing the bra, to avoid the bra falling off due to too much activity, and pay attention to keeping the bra clean and replacing it regularly.
Regular review and rehabilitation guidance
After breast augmentation surgery, patients need regular reexamination and rehabilitation guidance. The doctor will give corresponding suggestions according to personal conditions, including diet, exercise, exercise, etc. Patients need to return to the hospital regularly to receive the doctor's inspection and guidance to ensure the stability of the surgical effect and the smooth progress of recovery.
During the reexamination and rehabilitation period, patients should pay attention to maintain an optimistic attitude, avoid excessive worry or anxiety, reasonably arrange their own life and work, and follow the doctor's recommendations for recovery training and rehabilitation guidance.
Summary
Nursing after breast augmentation is the key to promote postoperative recovery. Patients need to rest and exercise under the guidance of doctors, pay attention to the care and cleaning of wounds, wear appropriate underwear, and regularly review and receive rehabilitation guidance. Only by proper nursing can patients recover as soon as possible and obtain satisfactory results.
