Depending on the procedure a soft, bland diet would be recommended.

You can eat but not soft sticky foods that can enter the wound site. The most important healing process is to keep food and debris out of the wound .After eating flush out the site with a saline solution and or a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and water.
