    FAQ's

    General surgery is a surgical field that encompasses the diagnosis, preoperative evaluation, and postoperative care of individuals dealing with a diverse array of medical conditions. General surgeons commonly address conditions related to the abdomen, digestive system, endocrine system, breast, and soft tissues. They often collaborate with anesthesiologists, nurses, and surgical technicians as part of a surgical team.

    General surgeons are trained to perform a diverse range of procedures, including removing the appendix, gallbladder removal, hernia repairs, bowel surgeries, thyroid and parathyroid surgeries, breast surgeries, tumour removals, and other organs surgeries.

    Consider consulting general surgeons if you need surgical treatment for conditions like hernias, gallstones, appendicitis, or thyroid disorders. They also perform surgeries related to breast cancer or suspicious lumps. If you are contemplating a surgical procedure, a consultation with a general surgeon will provide valuable insights and guidance tailored to your specific needs.

    On the day of surgery, you will undergo a thorough preoperative evaluation, including vital sign measurements and necessary tests. After being cleared for surgery, you will receive anaesthesia in the operating room, where you will be closely monitored throughout the procedure. Post-surgery, you will be moved to a recovery area and closely monitored until stable. The surgical team will provide clear post-operative instructions and address any questions or concerns you may have.

    Recovery varies based on the procedure’s type and complexity. You might experience discomfort, pain, or fatigue. Specific post-operative instructions provided by your general surgeon, including pain management, wound care, activity restrictions, and dietary recommendations, should be followed closely to ensure a smooth recovery and minimise complications.

    Regular follow-up appointments are crucial for monitoring your progress after surgery. The duration and frequency depend on your specific surgery and healing process. Attending these appointments is essential for proper healing and addressing any concerns or complications.

    Laparoscopic surgery, or minimally invasive surgery, is a surgical technique that requires small incisions and the use of specialised equipment and a camera to accomplish the treatment. This method frequently results in less scarring and quicker healing.

    To support recovery and prevent complications, follow your surgeon’s instructions regarding activities and exercises. This may include avoiding heavy lifting, strenuous exercise, or activities that strain the surgical site. Adhering to these guidelines promotes proper healing and reduces the risk of complications.

    Stitch removal timing varies but generally occurs within 5 to 14 days after surgery. Your surgeon will provide specific instructions on when and how to get your stitches removed, ensuring proper healing and minimising scarring. Assessment during a follow-up appointment determines the appropriate time for stitch removal.

    Consult with your surgeon about your regular medications before surgery. They will provide instructions on whether to continue taking them or make adjustments. Inform your surgeon about all medications to ensure a safe and successful surgery.

    Consult with your surgeon for personalised dietary guidelines before and after surgery to enhance your recovery. Typically, fasting until midnight before surgery ensures an empty stomach. After surgery, you might be advised to follow a modified diet, including adequate fluids, small, frequent meals, and avoiding spicy or greasy foods. Following these instructions supports healing and minimises complications.

    All surgeries carry some inherent risk, but our modern operating rooms are well-equipped to handle complications, and surgical risks can also be influenced by certain medical conditions. Consult with experts for personalised advice and information tailored to your specific situation.

    While surgeons avoid recommending surgery when a safer alternative exists, sometimes it becomes necessary for the most effective treatment. Our experts at Apollo are here to provide general surgery treatment and guidance.
