Sleeping position after breast fibroid surgery

Breast fibroma is a type of fibroid disease that grows in the breasts of many women. After the presence of breast fibroma is discovered, most of them require surgical removal. Otherwise, some breast fibroma may worsen and turn into breast cancer. Although breast fibroid surgery is a minimally invasive surgery, patients should also take care of their bodies after the surgery. So what is the best sleeping position after breast fibroid surgery?

First of all, the patient should lie on his side after completing the fibroid surgery and try to avoid the surgical site. After all, once gravity is placed on the surgical site, it is easy to compress the wound, causing it to split or become infected. Therefore, sleeping posture is particularly important. Of course, lying flat is completely fine, because lying flat will not cause damage to the wound. The specific recovery time takes about half a year. When sleeping during this half year, you should try to avoid your sleeping posture pressing on the wound area. Sleeping on the other side where surgery was not performed is the best sleeping position, which can avoid the recurrence of fibroids.

After the wound has fully recovered, there are not so many requirements for sleeping posture, and you don’t need to pay special attention to the problem of sleeping posture. At this time, you should pay more attention to diet and life. Eat less foods rich in estrogen, such as soy milk and chicken wings. Keep a good mood to prevent the recurrence of fibroids. Have healthy living habits in life and change previous bad living habits. For those who are in poor living conditions, they must completely change their living conditions to avoid the recurrence of fibroids. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the entire process of preventing fibroids. This is also the most important point that patients need to pay attention to after surgery. Only in this way can they have a healthier body.

Patients who have undergone fibroid surgery should not only pay attention to their sleeping posture, but also pay attention to their eating habits, which should mainly consist of low-fat vegetarian food. Because high-fat foods not only cause obesity, but also lead to an imbalance in hormone levels. You should avoid smoking, drinking, and caffeinated foods such as chocolate and carbonated soda.
