Can you drink coffee or orange juice after Breast Reduction?

Question

Michael A. Epstein, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question.I don't see why not, but I would discuss that with your surgeon, as each provider has different restrictions for patients following their procedure.

Ted Eisenberg, DO, FACOS, FAACS · Answer

Yes you can. I advise my cosmetic breast surgery patients to take it easy on their diet until lunch the day after surgery. I tell them to consider starting with some soups and stay away from any fast foods. It's always a good idea to ask your surgeon his or her dietary restrictions for you. Good luck with your surgery.

Steven Holzman, MD · Answer

I think you can drink anything you want after surgery except for mixing alcohol with narcotic pain relievers.  Caffeine should be fine.

Tom J. Pousti, MD · Answer

Always best to one postoperative questions by her plastic surgeon but you should be fine with either one of those drinks. Best wishes.

Michael E. Ciaravino, MD (in memoriam) · Answer

Typically orange juice is fine to drink post operatively, but doctors preferences on caffeine can vary. It is best to speak with your PS about his/her restrictions on caffeine intake.
