<p>Every doctor always gives full attention to a surgical wound care “In the first week, patients must receive wound cleaning every day or some cases may receive by skipping day by day while food that patients are allowed to intake should not be oily, rich in strong taste, or hard to be digested. Moreover, for living or doing activity the doctor will suggest them to avoid doing workout including outdoor activities in about 1-2 week after that then they can start doing light exercising.</p>
