Can I drink coffee after having double eyelid surgery?
I am 21 years old. I had double eyelid surgery two days ago and would like to know whether I can drink coffee after having double eyelid surgery.

Under normal circumstances, it is not recommended to drink coffee immediately after undergoing double eyelid surgery, although the specific situation should be determined according to individual physical condition and post-operative recovery.
Caffeine has a vasoconstrictive effect and may affect blood circulation in the surgical area, which is not conducive to wound healing. During the first few days after surgery, the body is in a critical stage of trauma repair, and maintaining good blood circulation helps promote wound healing. In the early phase after double eyelid surgery, it is generally recommended to avoid consuming caffeinated beverages such as coffee, tea, and cola for at least one week, to minimize adverse effects on blood circulation. Caffeine may also cause elevated blood pressure and increased heart rate; before the surgical wounds have fully healed, this could lead to anxiety or sleep disturbances, and insufficient rest is not conducive to post-operative recovery.
After double eyelid surgery, a light diet is recommended, avoiding spicy, irritating, or greasy foods, as these are不利于 the healing of the eyelid area. Eating more fresh seasonal vegetables and fruits can help supply nutrients needed by the body. Post-operative care should include keeping the wound clean and dry to prevent infection. Regular follow-up visits to the hospital are necessary to monitor the healing process.
