If your friend is experiencing pain and the wound from the appendix removal surgery has not healed properly after the stitches were removed, it's important for him to seek medical attention. He should consult with his healthcare professional or the surgeon who performed the procedure as soon as possible.
The healthcare professional will be able to examine the wound and determine the appropriate course of action. It's possible that your friend may need to have the wound restitched if it hasn't healed properly. The healthcare professional will assess the situation and provide the necessary treatment.
To manage the pain in the meantime, your friend can try over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen, as long as they are suitable for him based on his medical history and any other medications he may be taking. However, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional before taking any new medications.
In terms of promoting wound healing, your friend should follow the surgeon's instructions regarding wound care. This may include keeping the wound clean and dry, changing dressings as directed, and avoiding activities that could strain or disrupt the healing process. Eating a balanced diet that includes adequate protein, vitamins (such as vitamin c), and minerals can also support the healing process. However, it's essential for your friend to follow any specific dietary recommendations given by his healthcare professional.
Again, it's crucial for your friend to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and guidance tailored to his specific situation. They will be able to provide the most accurate advice and ensure appropriate wound care and pain management
