Clinical Overview
The period immediately following surgery is critical for long-term success. Proper wound care, pain management, and physical therapy are essential components of the recovery process.
Key Symptoms
Signs of post-surgical complications include redness or discharge at the incision site, sudden fever, increasing pain, or calf swelling.
Treatment Options
Follow the surgeon’s mobilization plan, take prescribed medications on time, and attend all follow-up appointments. Respiratory exercises are often needed to prevent pneumonia after general anesthesia.
Prevention & Lifestyle
Quit smoking before surgery to improve healing, maintain nutrition levels, and strictly follow the pre-operative and post-operative instructions provided by your clinical team.
