Healing After Eye Surgery
There is no doubt that wound care after any type of surgery is a must. You need to keep the affected area clean and protected from dirt or grime. Consider how this impacts your recovery from eye surgery.
The right products make it possible to prevent even a small amount of light from getting through the bandage. They also aid in reducing the potential for any outside element to trigger an infection and hamper the recovery. Along with the dressings and ointments required by your physician, consider investing in several eye patches. Those patches offer additional protection and also make it easier to hide the dressing. Along with keeping the area free from contamination, the patch will also help you feel a little better about how you look in the days and weeks after the surgery.
Dealing With Temporary Incontinence
Many forms of surgery lead to temporary incontinence issues during the recovery period. While the problem will only last for a few weeks or months, worries about continence issues can make it more difficult to get out and do the things you want to do. Fortunately, there are a number of incontinence products that will make it easier to be in control rather than feel at the mercy of this short-term problem.
If you have never looks at incontinence undergarments before, the fact they are so compact may surprise you. The designs on the market today look quite a bit like a standard pair of underwear. Don’t let the appearance fool you. Incontinence underwear is made using materials that help to keep moisture from settling on the skin and also prevent leakage. Many products are also able to minimize the odor. That provides you with the opportunity to discreetly slip away from the dinner table or head for the restroom at work, clean up, and put on a fresh pair without having to be rushed.
Skin Care Products
Some procedures leave the skin irritated, dry, or lead to temporary rashes. In order to prevent flaking and inflammation, you need skin products formulated to hydrate and protect the skin. Various ointments can be applied that will accomplish just that. The result is that your skin is protected as you continue to heal and there are no long-term consequences like splotches or discoloration. A doctor can provide suggestions on how much product to use and how often.
Healing from a medical procedure is much easier when you have the right type of products on hand. Talk with your doctor about what sort of products will be especially helpful for you. Doing so will minimize the potential for complications, provide relief from pain or discomfort, and ultimately help you heal a little faster.
