Bone broth is great for healing after surgery. Collagen especially helps with repairing tissue.

Kefir is also very healing.

If youre taking pain meds, it wouldnt hurt to get a stool softener maybe something like restoralax/miralax is great. White grape juice is also good for that purpose.
Hope youre doing okay! My aunt had knee surgery and I had to change the dressings a few times. Sometimes the dressing got stuck to the wound and made it difficult to change but if you moisten the gauze up itll lift off easily.
