Introduction
In general, rhinoplasty refers to nasal augmentation surgery. After undergoing rhinoplasty, it is usually not recommended to eat hairtail fish. You should follow your doctor's advice, maintain a light and nutritionally balanced diet, and avoid consuming spicy, greasy, or excessively hot foods, as these may place additional stress on the wound. Additionally, it is important to keep the wound clean and dry to promote healing.
Generally, rhinoplasty refers to nasal augmentation surgery, and it is usually not recommended to eat hairtail fish after the procedure. The typical reference price for rhinoplasty ranges from 5,000 to 10,000 yuan per session, with visible improvement generally seen within 4 to 6 months; however, symptoms such as redness, swelling, and pain may occur. Detailed explanation is as follows:
For patients who have recently undergone rhinoplasty, the surgical site contains an open wound, and the skin tissue is in a sensitive and healing state. Hairtail fish, as a type of seafood, contains abundant protein, fatty acids, and minerals. These components may act as allergens for certain individuals, potentially irritating the wound. Consuming hairtail fish at this time might increase the risk of skin allergies, causing adverse symptoms such as redness, swelling, itching, and inflammation at the wound site, thus affecting normal wound healing and the surgical outcome. Therefore, it is generally not recommended to eat hairtail fish after rhinoplasty.
It is also recommended to avoid consuming spicy, greasy, or excessively hot foods that may irritate the wound and worsen the condition. At the same time, it is important to keep the wound clean and dry to promote recovery.
