A perforated stomach ulcer is an inflammatory disease in which the layers of the organ are destroyed and bleeding appears. If the patient has such a condition, surgical intervention is indicated. After it is carried out, the functions of the digestive organs are gradually restored. Therefore, it is important to follow a diet and postoperative regimen. You can learn more about them from a surgeon or gastroenterologist.
Recovery on the first day
Immediately after surgery for a perforated gastric ulcer, the patient gradually recovers from general anesthesia. At this time, he does not eat food and may be in a state of sleep. After this period is over, it is necessary to gradually saturate the body with useful substances. On the first day, you should not eat food enterally, that is, by swallowing. Therefore, all nutrients are administered intravenously.
After completing the first day, the patient is advised to eat in small quantities. This is done according to the following rules:
- drinking only drinks, solid food is prohibited;
- It is allowed to drink warm tea with sugar;
- To remove substances from anesthesia and restore kidney function, drinking warm rosehip decoction is recommended;
- drinks begin to be consumed gradually, from 1 tsp. every half hour.
Using the above rules allows the patient to restore normal peristalsis of all parts of the esophagus. If this stage has passed satisfactorily, other products begin to be introduced. The menu after surgery must be expanded gradually so as not to cause excessive stress on the stomach and other parts of the gastrointestinal tract.
Principles of a therapeutic diet
During the two postoperative months, the patient must adhere to a strict diet. Compliance with all medical rules and recommendations will avoid relapse of the disease and the development of the inflammatory process. For a speedy recovery, adhere to the principles of a healthy diet.
After surgery to remove a stomach ulcer, the patient must remember the rules to restore his condition:
- Not to starve. Abstinence from food for medicinal purposes is permissible only for the first three days after the intervention. You need to eat at least 6 times a day in small portions. The optimal weight of one is 200 g.
- You can only eat home-cooked food. This means that industrial sweets, sausages, cheeses, canned food and sugary soda are completely removed from the diet.
- Spicy dishes and marinades pose a danger to the mucous membrane, irritating it. Even garlic, which is so beneficial for the body, should be excluded from the menu, since it is a natural irritant and also provokes the release of acids. Restrictions also apply to table salt, which is better replaced with sea salt.
- Eating after surgery involves grinding solid food into a puree. For example, boiled vegetables can be blended using a blender.
- Doctors prohibit cooking food with added oil or animal fats to avoid complications. In general, after gastric surgery, the diet should consist of steamed or oven-cooked dishes that do not cause irritation of the mucous membrane.
- Observe temperature conditions. Do not allow foods that are too hot or cold, as a sharp change will negatively affect the condition of your epigastrium.
Doctors will provide you with a complete list of products for consumption in the postoperative period.
What is allowed
After gastric surgery, the patient is prescribed a strict diet, which he must follow for at least a year. You can try any of your favorite treats only starting from the second postoperative year.
So, doctors allow the following products:
- omelet and steamed eggs;
- dietary meat (turkey, chicken and beef);
- low-fat dairy products;
- vegetables (potatoes, pumpkin, carrots, zucchini);
- fruits (apples, pears, bananas);
- cereals (oatmeal, rice, buckwheat, pasta).
A menu that includes this food will give the patient strength and energy for a speedy recovery.
What is prohibited
During the period after perforation, the patient should not consume a number of foods that will negatively affect his condition and create discomfort in the stomach and intestines. The list of prohibited foods includes:
- bakery products, muffins;
- legumes;
- any sauces;
- sweets, nuts and seeds;
- preservation, marinades;
- seasonings, spices;
- semi-finished products;
- fried and fatty foods.
Peptic ulcers completely exclude products that contain cocoa.
Also during the recovery period, and in later life, you should give up smoking and other bad habits.
Basic rules for following a postoperative diet
In the first 2 weeks, it is important to follow all the surgeon’s instructions. During this rehabilitation period, the damaged mucous membrane begins to heal. Any excessive exposure is fraught with damage to the mucous layer and bleeding.
It is recommended to adhere to the following rules:
- strict dosage in food, the doctor prescribes its amount in grams per dose;
- food is divided into 6-8 meals, each portion is small;
- all products must correspond to the dietary table number;
- food should be neutral to eliminate the aggressive effect on the mucous membrane;
- products should be easily digestible and not cause excessive release of hydrochloric acid;
- The maximum temperature for heating food should be +50°C, and the minimum temperature should be +30°C.
Following these rules will allow you to recover quickly without complications. For patients with peptic ulcers, it is recommended to use table numbers: 0, 0A, 0B, 1, 1B.
Diet after surgery
Meals after gastric ulcer surgery should be balanced and steamed. This method of preparation should be followed for a long time, and sometimes for the rest of your life.
The main goal of postoperative nutrition is to minimize the load on the digestive tract and ensure protection of the stomach walls. Therefore, the diet after surgery should be determined by a specialist. He must provide a detailed list of permitted and prohibited foods and recipes. In any case, you must follow a diet. Otherwise, there is a high risk of a recurrent ulcer.
1 Week
In the first week after surgery, the patient is advised to rest and receive the most gentle nutrition possible. In the first 24 hours you should not only eat food, but also drink water. With your doctor's permission, you can drink half a glass of water on the second day. This amount of liquid is divided throughout the day.
If the recovery process is within normal limits, then during the third day you can drink 0.5 liters. warm water. On the fourth day after gastric ulcer surgery, you are allowed to eat liquid food prepared according to a dietary recipe. For example, low-fat turkey or chicken broth, liquid jelly.
The volume of food is calculated in glasses. So, you are allowed to drink 3-4 glasses a day. On the fifth day, liquid semolina in water and low-fat yogurt are introduced into the diet. In order for the body to recover faster, meat puree begins to be administered 7 days after the operation.
2-3 week
The subsequent diet should consist of easily digestible and boiled foods. After a week, you are allowed to eat the following dishes:
- mashed potatoes;
- porridge in the form of puree;
- vegetable soups with broth;
- steam cutlets;
- baked vegetables;
- curd soufflé;
- some dried bread.
Advice! At this time after surgery, it is advisable for the patient to buy food for children at the pharmacy. Such products meet all dietary requirements.
The attending physician should tell you what you can eat after gastric ulcer surgery during this period.
After 3rd week
Particular attention should be paid to the choice of foods 3 weeks after gastric surgery. After all, it is during the first months that the digestive system gradually adapts to the new diet.
During this period, other products gradually begin to be added. The menu includes almost all permitted products. Special attention is paid to dishes enriched with animal proteins: low-fat cheese, low-fat fermented milk products, chicken, eggs, fish.
If recovery proceeds without complications, then after 2-3 months the consumption of non-acidic mashed berries and fruits is allowed. However, it is necessary to adhere to dietary nutrition for a long time. You can expand the menu after a year if the rehabilitation process is going well.
Thus, after surgical treatment of a peptic ulcer, nutritional correction is required, as well as compliance with all doctor’s recommendations. Only with favorable development can you return to your normal diet 2-3 years after surgery.

What is a stomach ulcer and what causes it?
A stomach ulcer is a disease that is characterized by a violation of the integrity of the mucous membrane of the organ. This disease in most cases is provoked by the activity of pathological bacteria. As a result of this process, the level of acidity increases, and the secreted gastric juice decomposes not only the food entering it, but also the walls of the organ itself, forming perforated ulcers. In some cases, drug treatment is insufficient and the patient is offered surgical intervention.
A perforated ulcer is a very dangerous disease. It represents the occurrence of an open defect through which its contents leak from the stomach into the abdominal cavity. The consequence of this process is the occurrence of peritonitis, which if not eliminated will inevitably lead to death.
In addition to the action of bacteria, the occurrence of this disease is facilitated by:
- reduced immunity;
- decreased duration and quality of night sleep;
- stress;
- long-term use of medications;
- bad habits - smoking and drinking alcohol;
- improper diet;
- heredity;
- the presence of other stomach diseases.
People who have the above factors in their lives need to undergo a medical examination once a year. It will help detect the defect at an early stage and try to cure it only by taking medications, giving up bad habits and restoring proper diet and rest. Otherwise, surgery will be inevitable.
How to eat
All food eaten must be pureed. Do not allow coarse or large pieces to enter the stomach - they injure the unhealed mucous membrane and can provoke unpleasant complications. In addition, after such stress, the gastrointestinal tract is not yet able to fully digest food.

Particular attention should be paid to the regime. Eating at the same time will help the body prepare for this process in time and produce the proper amount of gastric juice. The patient, taking into account individual characteristics and the time of awakening/going to bed, must draw up a meal schedule and follow it strictly. The intervals should be no more than two hours.
Thus, the patient will eat approximately 7 times a day. Ideally, distribute the diet, leaving the most easily digestible foods for the evening. The last meal should occur no later than two hours before going to bed.
What portions should be:
- on the second day you can drink no more than 150 ml of water, 10 ml several times a day. With each subsequent day, the amount of fluid consumed should be increased by 150 ml;
- on the third day you can eat 500 ml of food in fractions. The norm for days 4–5 is to increase the volume eaten to 800 ml - 1 liter.
So gradually the patient should reach the norm of consumption.
It is important to remember the categorical ban on overeating, especially in the first period after surgery.
General rules
Resection of the stomach or part of it in a number of cases is the only possible method of treating and saving the patient’s life. Stomach surgery is a radical method of treating extensive malignant neoplasms ( stomach cancer ), stomach ulcers , polyps, and gastric bleeding that are not amenable to conservative treatment. Despite the progress of medicine, gastric removal remains one of the most difficult surgical operations, and even if it is successful and there are no significant complications, rehabilitation takes a long period of time, and nutrition after gastric surgery is the most important component of this process.
Diet after gastrectomy or after removal of part of the stomach
Parenteral nutrition after gastrectomy begins with Diets No. 0A , 0B , 0B ( 1A , 1B , 1B surgical) prescribed sequentially. Their intended purpose is to provide the patient’s body with a minimum amount of basic food nutrients, unload and spare the stomach, and prevent intestinal bloating and flatulence . The diet contains easily digestible foods containing complete proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins and macro/microelements and an increased amount of free fluid. Salt consumption is sharply limited.
On the first postoperative day, the patient is shown to be hungry; on day 2 - the diet includes 250 ml of warm sweet tea and rosehip infusion (50 ml), which are given after 15-20 minutes in a teaspoon; on days 4-5, in the absence of abdominal bloating and normal peristalsis, Diet No. 0A and 2 soft-boiled eggs are prescribed; on days 6-8 Diet No. 0B ; on days 9-11 - Diet No. 0B .
- Diet No. 0A . Contains 5-10 g of proteins, 15-20 g of fats and 180-200 g of carbohydrates. The volume of free liquid is 1.8-2.2 l, sodium chloride is no more than 1-2 g. The energy value of the daily diet varies between 760-1020 Kcal. Food is served in liquid form. Fractional diet - up to 7-8 times a day and the amount of food per meal is no more than 250 g. The diet includes mucous decoctions with cream, light low-fat meat broth, fruit and berry jelly/jelly, sweet rosehip decoction, fruit and berry juices . Dishes with a pureed and dense consistency, drinks containing carbon dioxide, and whole milk are completely prohibited.
- Diet No. 0B . Contains 40-50 g of protein, 50 g of fat and 250 g of carbohydrates. The volume of free liquid is up to 2 l/day, sodium chloride is no more than 4-5 g. The energy value of the daily diet is 1580-1650 Kcal. Food is prepared in liquid/puree form. Diet - up to 6 times a day, portion size should not exceed 400 g. In addition to the permitted products of Diet No. 0A , the diet is expanded by adding mucous cereal soups cooked in vegetable broth, soft-boiled eggs, liquid pureed rice and buckwheat porridges cereals, protein steamed omelettes, pureed dietary meat and fish, sweet berry jelly.
- Diet 0B . It is a diet of a transitional stage to subsequent physiologically complete nutrition. Contains 80-90 g of protein, 70 g of fat and 320 g of carbohydrates. The volume of free fluid is 1.5 l/day. Sodium chloride no more than 6-7 g. The energy value of the daily diet is 2100-2400 Kcal. Food is served in puree form. Diet: 5-6 times a day. The diet additionally includes cream/mashed soups, pureed steamed meat and fish, pureed cottage cheese with cream, fermented milk drinks, baked apples, pureed fruit/vegetable puree and 50-75 g of white crackers.
The duration of each surgical diet is 2-4 days, but, if necessary, the time spent on them can be lengthened or shortened. That is, approximately, after 9-12 days, the surgical diet after the operation ends, and the patient is transferred to the standard Diet No. 1 according to Pevzner (mashed version), which limits the amount of food consumed at one time: no more than 250 g of the first pureed dish or a glass of liquid (250 g), and for lunch - only two dishes. Meals are fractional, 5-6 times a day.
The diet contains an increased amount of protein (100-110 g), which includes dishes from boiled minced meat, boiled fish, fresh mashed/calcined cottage cheese, and egg white omelettes. The amount of fat in the diet is at the level of physiological norms or several times higher (80-90 g). If the patient does not tolerate fats well (and in their pure form too), which is manifested by bitterness in the mouth, regurgitation, diarrhea, their quantity is limited to 60-70 g. The carbohydrate content is reduced to 300-320 g due to easily digestible carbohydrates.
In some cases, in particular with dumping syndrome , manifested by dizziness , weakness, palpitations , chills, a feeling of heat, abdominal pain and bloating, diarrhea that appears after eating, it is necessary to completely eliminate foods containing sugar, since the consumption of easily digestible carbohydrates is one of the reasons for its appearance.
