Q&A : Are we more prone to infections during summer?_Facial bone surgery, Double jaw surgery

Are we more prone to infections during summer?
Since antibiotics and cooling systems are well developed nowadays, how to maintain good post-operative surgery care is more important than the weather. Human beings are homoeothermic animals who are remarkable in maintain constant body temperature. Therefore, inflammation due to the increase of body temperature during summer is not something to be concerned about. Performing the surgery in an aseptic operation room and proper use of antibacterial agents greatly eliminate such possibilities of infections.



However, poor aftercare may result to infections and inflammation even if the surgery was performed under a completely sterilized environment. 

The patients must follow the hospital’s instructions about maintain proper hygienic behaviors such as keeping surgery areas away from dirty gauzes and hands, and most importantly, refraining from drinking, smoking, stress and loss of sleep.
