Complications of Surgery

Complications of surgery refer to unexpected problems that may occur after an operation. These can include infections, excessive bleeding, blood clots, or reactions to anesthesia, which can all impact recovery. In some cases, a surgical site may not heal properly or a patient might experience pain, scarring, or organ damage. While many surgeries have high success rates, it's important to discuss potential risks with your doctor beforehand, as these complications can vary based on the procedure, a patient’s health, and other factors. Proper care and monitoring post-surgery can help reduce these risks.
