    Hello, I didn't say what surgery was, generally speaking, postoperative edema is not uncommon, and the common causes are:

    1. When the patient's blood pressure is unstable during major surgery, a large amount of fluid is added during the operation, which causes edema.

    2. Surgical blood loss is large, hypoproteinemia, colloidal osmotic pressure decreases, causing edema.

    3. Patients who have been bedridden for a long time after surgery and cannot eat will have edema after a large amount of fluid.

    4. Abnormal kidney function or heart function, causing edema.

    And so on and so forth...

    This is due to Staphylococcus aureus infection and the fact that the effusion itself has not been eliminated.

    If it is right heart insufficiency, it should be edema of both lower limbs at the same time, poor appetite, etc.

    The left calf is always swollen and swollen, and it is highly suspected that the saphenous vein of the left lower limb was taken when bypassing. If so, swelling of the lower extremities is normal after surgery and will gradually disappear as collateral circulation is established.

    **The method is to elevate the left lower limb, such as putting a pillow under the left calf when sleeping, to speed up the return of venous blood. Usually pay attention to minimize walking and reduce the time of lower limb sagging. Diuretic medications may be taken.

    If it is not the saphenous vein of the left lower limb that is taken during the bypass, it is best to see a doctor if other diseases are not ruled out.

    Both fractures and surgery can cause local tissue damage and partial capillary destruction, and surgery can also cause edema of the subcutaneous tissue in the surgical field, which takes time to recover. Before recovery, venous return of the lower limbs will definitely be affected, and leg swelling is inevitable. You don't have to worry, as long as the surgery** indicates that the surgery was successful, you just need to wait and recover.

    It is recommended that you elevate your lower limbs more and soak your feet in warm water every day to reduce the symptoms of leg swelling.

    It may be caused by less movement, water accumulation, and poor blood circulation after surgery. Give her more leg touches and walks.

    The best thing to do is to see a doctor.
