Must-Have Products For Post-Surgery Recovery

Surgery recovery can be physically and mentally taxing. Even simple, everyday tasks that once could be easily done, such as showering and using the toilet, would now feel like a Herculean task. However, there are proactive steps you can take to make recovery as easy as possible as your body undergoes healing. These measures include planning ahead and ordering any products you may need for your post-surgery recuperation, which can make a world of difference to your recovery process. With these five products, you will be much more equipped for hospital discharge and make your post-surgery recovery less stressful than it needs to be. 

Rinse-free Bath Wipes, Bath Bench 

One of the most inconvenient side effects following a surgical procedure is reduced mobility. Having rinse-free bath wipes and bath benches are essential to making bathing feasible, and safer, with a limited range of motion. 

Blood Sugar Monitoring Kit 

After surgery day, it is advisable to routinely check your blood sugar levels with a blood sugar monitoring kit. This is so because when you have surgery, the procedure itself and the effects of anesthesia may lead to elevated blood sugar levels, which may cause health complications such as wound infection and slow healing. 

A blood sugar monitoring kit is instrumental in helping you keep regular track of the sugar levels in your blood and keeping them under control, which enables you to take early intervention measures to prevent your sugar levels from getting too high or too low. This helps to delay and reduce the onset of health complications, ensuring a smooth journey to recovery. 

Incontinence Products 

One of the most common and frustrating side-effects of a general anesthetic is incontinence, which can last from weeks to months.  Therefore, it is vital to have incontinence products on hand, for a more convenient and comfortable road to recovery, and make cleaning up easier. From incontinence pads to adult diapers, there is an array of incontinence products with varying absorption capacities and sizes to suit your situation and needs. 

Regardless of the type of incontinence product you use, anyone recovering from surgery will be more emotionally at ease and sanitary with incontinence products during their recovery. 

Walkers, Rollators, Ramps, Wheelchairs 

Certain surgery procedures may limit your mobility during your post-surgery recovery. Mobility equipment such as walkers, rollators, ramps, and wheelchairs, help to maintain your balance, prevent falls, and get around more safely. It also goes a long way in making the recovery process that much more convenient and easier for you. 

Pillows 

Depending on the surgery, it can be challenging to get comfortable. Not only can this be frustrating, but it could even slow down recovery by worsening your sleep quality, which in turn, prevents tissue growth and repair from taking place. If you want to get snug and cozy for your body to heal, you could opt for a wedge pillow that aids reclining, a knee pillow that helps alleviate pain or pressure, or even a donut pillow to help distribute weight. 

And there you have it, our top five essential products for a less painful, and smoother journey to post-surgery recovery.
