What is the recovery time from Laparoscopic Appendectomy? - Dr. Sathish N

The recovery time with laparoscopic appendectomy is hardly about 2 days hospitalisation or of late people have been sending patients on the same day after surgery. Moreover if there is a complex laparoscopic appendectomy that has happened for a patient, the patient would have had to stay back for almost 3 to 4 days. The recovery stay is not related to the laparoscopic procedure as such, but because of the disease process. There are lot of instances where the appendix has ruptured, there are lot of adhesions, we would have to release the adhesions, as result the intestinal motility would be decreased. It is called as paralytic ileus. The patient will not be able to pass motions or take anything orally. As a result of which he will have to stay back for IV fluid supplementation. Sometimes there are patients who have a little bit of exaggerated pain at the umbilical port site or at other port sites, as result of which they stay back to get good analgesic control. In addition it is seen that in most of the laparoscopic appendectomy is actually a boon for the patient because in open appendectomy, the scar will be about 4 to 5 cms or rather 6 cms and if it is a difficult appendectomy, then we will have to do a difficult cut and remove the appendix. But in laparoscopic appendectomy, in most of the times, the surgery passes of smoothly and the patients and get back to work in a matter of 2 or 3 days.

Had surgery at 1730 11/4/20, discharged 11/5 @ 1400. Returning to work 11/8/20. Thank you Dr. Tsai.

[@jeffreykirton1780]

3-4 days is not average. Many recoveries take much longer depending on several factors. Dont push it. Your body will tell you when its healed and ready to get back to it.

Got my appendectomy 3 months ago and I am still in pain. Apparently my appendix was dying inside of me when I had appendicitis so my recovery is going to be long. It doesn't end for a long time.

[@shelleydavis5231]

A little bit of exaggerated pain? Home after 2 days? Back to work in a matter of 2 to 3 days? You have got to be kidding me! My son had this surgery after a ruptured appendix. he is 11 years old. I have never seen so much pain, it's 2 weeks after surgery, he is a little better but still walking bent over and slowly. Definitely not ready for school or any regular activity... I still watch him like a hawk for any reinfection or pain symptoms

[@amybeth5898]

Going back to work in two or three days is nuts. I was still in the hospital then. Now I am five days post surgery and I expect at least one more week before I can work again. The pain I am in now is horrendous.

If open surgery it takes minimum 1 month to become completely normal like complete normal... 2-3 weeks for pain to completely go away nd u can walk with comfort without bending over .. Worstest of all : you cannot cry hard in pain.. the more you cry hard the more it pains because the muscles over there get stretched or contracted!

I’ve had my surgery a week ago and I’m still experiencing quite of a lot of pain. Sometimes in my chest, not necessarily near the appendix. I was told the chest pain is common because they inflate my stomach full of oxygen when they did the operation. Do you have any advice on how to get rid of the chest pain? Please reply!

[@octaviaarchie5775]

You have to walk. That is the only way to get rid of it.

plz reply me Eliias..i also have same problem of chest pain while laughing on cannot speak loudly due to chest pain..how u recoverd?

[@shelleydavis5231]

Try activated charcoal, a lot of air is pumped into the stomach to inflate it for surgery. This air is stuck inside the body after surgery and activated charcoal capsules helps with these . There are some KZbin videos on its success after laparoscopic surgery. It brings incredible relief especially trying to pass gas after surgery, it soaks up all the gas, but be cautious if you are on any meds as it will suck that up too. And of course. You have to walk walk walk
