After the Procedure
Most children stay in the hospital for just a few days after this surgery. Most recover rapidly. Children can eat their normal foods once they start eating again. Before leaving the hospital, the nurse should teach you how to care for the wound or wounds. If Steri-Strips were used to close the wound, they should be left in place until they fall off on their own in about a week.
The doctor may give you a prescription for antibiotics to prevent infection and recommend safe medicine to use for pain.
Prognosis
The outcome is usually excellent.
