A member asked:
What are soft foods that an adult can eat after having an appendectomy and colectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Best to ask: your surgeon!!!!. Not sure how far out from your surgery you are and why the bowel resection was done, and how the repair was made. All of these will determine an appropriate answer to your question. Your surgeon should have given you a recommended diet. If not call their office and get one!!
