Postoperative Recovery

Postoperative recovery is necessary following most surgical procedures. However, on some occasions, postoperative recovery can include complications such as infection, pain, nausea or vomiting, fever, hemorrhaging, hernias occurring at the incision point, and even more severe complications such as embolism, atelectasis, or cardiac stress. Depending on the type of surgery, other injuries may have occurred during or after the procedure. In some instances, injuries happen because patients do not allow for proper healing time. The complications that come from postoperative recovery can lead to more severe problems and generally require treatment by a healthcare professional so that further injury or illness does not occur. Most postoperative complications occur within three days of the operation, but some can happen throughout the postoperative recovery period. If any symptoms occur during the postoperative recovery, it’s imperative that proper diagnosis and treatment is received immediately, to prevent further complications and more severe injuries. Proper treatment will help ensure enhanced recovery times.
