How to prevent recurrence of intrauterine adhesion after surgery

Intrauterine adhesion is a relatively common female disease. When a woman suffers from this disease, she should go to the hospital for treatment in time, otherwise it will have a greater adverse effect on the woman's physical health and even cause infertility. After the surgical treatment of intrauterine adhesion, if it is not properly and carefully cared for, adhesion will occur again. Therefore, women must pay attention to the care of their bodies after the operation.

How to prevent recurrence of intrauterine adhesion after surgery

1. Early activities:

Except for high-risk patients, patients can be guided to turn over and move around in bed appropriately within 6 hours after surgery, and can get up and move around after 6-8 hours, and the amount of activity can be gradually increased.

2. Pain care:

Patients may experience varying degrees of pain after surgery. Most pain can be relieved by relaxation techniques. If the pain cannot be relieved, analgesics can be given.

3. Observe urination:

Early supervision, guidance and assistance should be given to patients to urinate. For those who really have difficulty urinating, induced urination can be given and catheterization can be performed if necessary.

4. Diet care:

After the operation of intrauterine adhesion, you can eat nutritious soft food and reduce the intake of irritating food.

5. Routine care:

That is, lie flat without a pillow for 6 hours to avoid raising the head too early, which may cause cerebrospinal fluid to seep out of the meningeal cavity from the puncture site, resulting in low brain pressure, stretching the intracranial veins and meninges and other tissues, and causing headaches.

6. Perineum care:

Afterwards, the perineum can be scrubbed with 1/5000 potassium permanganate or 0.1% chlorhexidine solution twice a day to avoid retrograde infection of the uterine cavity during catheterization.

7. Observe vaginal bleeding:

For patients with large surgical wounds and heavy bleeding, an intrauterine balloon catheter is usually placed after surgery, and 8-10 ml of normal saline is injected into the balloon. It has the effect of compressing and stopping bleeding. Pay attention to vaginal bleeding after the operation. If there is a lot of blood flowing out, report it to the doctor in time and follow the doctor's instructions for treatment. If there is no abnormality, the intrauterine balloon catheter is usually removed 24 hours after surgery.
