5. Be aware that for a few days following your procedure, a soft diet is suggested. Examples of soft foods are pastas, soup, baked potatoes, etc… Avoid chips, popcorn, spicy foods, and any other sharp foods.
6. Slight bleeding will occur after your surgery. Remember to change your sheets and pillow cases to darker colors.
