Surgery Favorites
I have had many surgeries but luckily for you I know some basics that might help you prepare for one better.
If you have abdominal surgery, take two days leading up to the surgery and a couple days after. The gas pain from them blowing up your stomach is no joke. I learned the hard way.
Great pillow in general, king size was nice to help keep me comfortable for multiple surgeries.
Take a couple days leading up and then each day you have pain medicine after. The anesthesia, anti nausea, and pain medicine will cause constipation and this will prevent it.
This helps you get comfortable when everything feels uncomfortable. ❤️
This saved my life. Great for reaching your entire back, abdominal pain, you can wrap it around your leg if you're having pain. The larger size is perfection.
These were perfect after having endometriosis excision surgery.
Switching these on and off with tylenol help so much after surgeries. Especially if you don't have pain medicine.
This feels so good while healing and helps with swelling.
May seem dramatic but having to get up after surgery because you're hot is annoying. This changed my after surgery healing process. The noise helped me stay asleep too instead of waking up to every little noise going on in the background.
Switching these on and off with advil helps so much after surgery. After one of my surgeries doing this helped better than the actual pain medicine.
Another great option after endometriosis surgery.
This helped with swelling and bruising, extra plus was finding out it helps with under eye puffiness too.
This is a lifesaver when starting new medication. The last thing you want to do is have an allergic reaction after surgery.
Great for incisions.
This stuff works wonders for healing inflamed, irritated, and dry skin. It locks in moisture like no other. Great for slugging too if you do not like aquaphor or vaseline. Goes on thick but does eventually soak in. Has zinc in it, works well for razo...
