Is it safe to vape after surgery?
After surgery, the ideal is to inhale nothing at all, but if the craving is pulling at you, vaping is undoubtedly better than lighting up a cigarette and clogging your scars with tar. Your body is in repair mode, so don't subject it to a combustion factory. However, before turning your hospital bed into a strawberry-scented sauna, you must absolutely ask your doctor's opinion so you don't sabotage your recovery on a whim.
Nicotine can constrict blood vessels, which slows down the oxygen supply needed for tissue healing. While vaping is a lesser evil compared to traditional tobacco, it is not neutral during a post-operative period. Your surgeon is the only captain of your internal plumbing; follow their instructions to the letter to avoid complications that even the best insurance won't erase. Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet.
