Answered by Master. Doctor Nguyen Thai Binh - General Surgery Department, Vinmec Ha Long International General Hospital.
Hello friend,
With the question “Can I eat after 1 day of appendicectomy without farting? , please answer as follows:
Usually after 12-24 hours after appendectomy, the patient will have bowel movements again. In some cases of peritonitis caused by a ruptured appendicitis, you may pass gas a little slower. So you should not be too worried, you can still eat a light snack to stimulate bowel movements soon to return with normal movement.
If you still have questions about whether you can eat or not eat after appendix surgery 1 day after surgery, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System to check. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
