Ask Surgeon: Ask Surgeon for express instructions. Eat extremely soft or liquid diet. Something like Boost or Insure, high in protein, would be helpful. Keep mouth immaculately clean. Avoid physically stressful activity. Avoid analgesics that promote fluid mobilization such as Advil (ibuprofen) or aspirin.
