After hemorrhoid surgery, patients should pay attention to dietary adjustments to promote recovery and healing. It is recommended to consume plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits to ensure adequate nutrition. Good choices include vegetables such as spinach, celery, carrots, eggplant, and tomatoes, as well as fruits like apples, oranges, pears, and bananas. Patients should also eat more foods rich in dietary fiber, such as oats, barley, legumes, sesame seeds, and corn, which can help with bowel movements, reduce gastrointestinal strain, and support the recovery from hemorrhoids. Additionally, patients should avoid spicy, greasy, and grilled foods, as these may irritate the digestive tract and hinder the healing process.
