Although our patients do not usually report pain during their postoperative period, most agree that swelling is the most important source of discomfort, especially during the first three days, when it reaches its peak, before gradually decreasing.
l Position: the nurses will help you sit up as soon as
possible to help retained fluids flow down and thus eliminate them more easily.
It is recommended to remain at about 45 ° inclination.
l Medication: During your hospital stay the medication will
be intravenous, so you don't need to worry about it.
l Movement: it is important to start walking as soon as
possible, as soon as you feel strong enough to do it. In this way, the fluids
are mobilized and the return circulation is activated.
l Cold: a mask of constant cold will be placed to help
reduce inflammation while providing you with a sense of relief.
l Liquids: drinking water will help you discard toxins and
cleanse your body, also helping the process of inflammation.
When you get discharged from the hospital, it is time to do
light stretching. Especially those people who did double jaw surgery and facial
bone contouring surgery! But cannot go outside because of the coronavirus!
This movement will not bother your head and you don’t need to put your hair down!
So please feel free to follow it! ^__^
