Ankles swelling 4 days after hysterectomy
Hi Everyone,
I had swollen ankles & hands while I was still in the hospital, but the swelling did go down after the IV came out. However, suddenly now on day 4 after the my abdominal hysterectomy, my ankles have swelled up so much! I did eat some salty foods today, so I'm thinking that's the issue, but I never had this problem before. Am I not going to be able to eat salty foods anymore without swelling up? Anyone else have this problem?

Re: Ankles swelling 4 days after surgery
Sometimes if you drink too much water, it can cause swelling. Also weird things seem to happen after this surgery. At ths time, I cannot eat certain foods anymore. Most of them are my favorite but they don't agree with me anymore. I would give you doc a call for a peace of mind.

Re: Ankles swelling 4 days after surgery
It can take some time for your body to get rid of all the fluids etc. If it does not go away though, you should let your doctor know. This recovery has been a doozie!! Im two days away from two weeks out and still pretty slow!! Good luck. )
