Appendectomy Discharge Instructions by Myra Atule is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The discharge plan instructs the patient to resume light activity at home, eat a bland low-fat diet for a few days before expanding to a regular diet, and drink 6-8 glasses of water per day unless otherwise directed. It also advises limiting lifting to under 15 pounds and sports/strenuous activity for 1-2 weeks, and watching for danger signs like swelling or fever that require contacting their doctor.
