Maintaining hygiene is the first step toward successful salivary gland surgery recovery. Gently clean the area around the incision using sterile gauze or as instructed by your doctor. Avoid touching the wound with unwashed hands.
During the initial recovery phase, choose soft foods that do not strain your jaw or cause discomfort. Soups, mashed vegetables, yogurt, and fruit juices are excellent options. Avoid spicy or acidic foods that may irritate the surgical area.
Pain, swelling, or minor discomfort are normal after salivary gland procedures. Always take the prescribed antibiotics and pain relievers as directed by your ENT specialist. Skipping medications can slow down recovery and increase the risk of infection.
Apply a cold compress or ice pack on the affected area for short durations to reduce swelling. Keep your head elevated while resting. These simple steps significantly improve comfort during your salivary gland surgery recovery.
Avoid heavy exercise, lifting weights, or strenuous activities for at least two weeks after surgery. Gentle movements are fine, but give your body the rest it needs.
Regular follow-ups at Microcare ENT Hospital Hyderabad help ensure your incision heals well and there are no signs of infection or nerve damage. Your ENT specialist may perform a physical examination and ultrasound if needed.
Proper salivary gland surgery recovery not only helps reduce complications but also improves long-term results. By following these easy post-surgery care tips and staying in touch with your doctor, you can heal quickly and comfortably.
