How long till bowel stab wound heals post-surgery?

How long does a stab wound to the bowel takes to heal after surgery

Dr. Samrat Jankar

Surgical Gastroenterologist

Answered on 9th Sept '24

A stab wound in the bowel is indeed a serious injury that will require surgery for a solution. After the surgery, the healing time can vary but it usually takes several weeks to a few months. Symptoms of this may involve intense pain, fever, and vomiting. Repairing the damaged bowel with surgery is the solution, in addition to proper wound care and medication to prevent infection, which is the main reason for the surgery. It's important to heed your doctor's orders to have a quick and easy recovery.

Sir mere bete ko kala latrin horaha hai.kuch bhi khane per dard horaha hai. Endoscopy report me esophagus ke GE junction me 39 cm ka tumor bata raha hai. Please help kare.

Male | 20

If there are pains after eating and the stools are blackish, it could be a sign of some serious problem that is taking place inside the body. The 39 cm tumor at the junction of the esophagus and the stomach is the cause of this problem. These types of tumors can be malignant, hence, the person may face trouble swallowing as well as experience weight loss. The options of surgery or other methods such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy might be necessary to eliminate the tumor.

I was given a Syrup for urine injection, but my mistake maybe my over view I have taken it without diluting, Change at present Vomitings I just want to know side effects or next step I need to take

Female | 23

It is apparently that urine injection syrup you have taken without diluting it. This can cause vomiting as a side effect. The major factor is the irritation of your stomach. To help, drink plenty of water and rest. If the vomiting persists or the condition is severe, there is a need to see medical help immediately.

Hi, I've been having ulcer pains for the past six days, I've taken Omeprazole 20mg for those days and antibiotics but the pain is still recurring even rignt now and this pain is accompanied with fever and bitter tongue.

Female | 22

The fever and bitter tongue suggest that your condition has worsened. I recommend that you consult a gastroenterologist soon for thorough assessment and management.

I have a fatty liver. Level 2 sgpt. I want treatment

Male | 37

I would urge you to consult with a gastroenterologist and liver specialist to receive treatment for your fatty liver. A level 2 SGPT shows that your liver is damaged to a moderate extent and needs prompt medical intervention. Besides medical care, you need to make some lifestyle changes, such as consuming less alcohol, losing weight, and sticking to a balanced diet.

I was feeling unwell, was given some anti malarial, not much change, later typhoid was suspected, but I didn't do a test. I've been on ciproflaxacin, I feel like going for a blood check up but it might not work since I've been on medicine, am asking for advice

Male | 20

It seems that dealing with a complex situation. Being sick and taking drugs can lead to inaccurate results of a blood test. Knowing exactly what is wrong is necessary for the right treatment. Symptoms of fever, stomach ache and general body weakness are common in both malaria and typhoid. Failing to go through the test may complicate matters further. My advice is to wait for some days after completion of the ciprofloxacin course before going for a blood test. This will enable you to get clearer results about your health status.

What will happen to my body I am on strike for 24 days not eating food and just take 2 sips of cold water twice a day?

Female | 33

If you don't consume food for a month and only take sips of plain water not very often, your body is going to be very weak. There could be lightheadedness when competent thinking and muscles can even become smaller. In addition to being harmful to your organs, this also can be a matter of life and death. Eat properly to remain healthy. Try to take tiny portions of food and drink water many times in the day.

My gran is a 64 year old female. She started vomiting over 6 hours ago. She can’t eat or hold anything down. She’s also complaining of a headache and pain on her right side. What can we do to help? She is on insulin and hypertension medication

Female | 64

Vomiting, headaches, and pain on her right side can mean she has pancreatitis, which is very serious. Take her to the hospital now. They’ll be able to find out what’s wrong and make her feel better. Also, bring along her insulin and any medicine she takes for high blood pressure.
