Hello. Thank you for posting.

It would depend on what kind of surgery you had. Ask your doctor what is ok to eat and what he or she can give you or recommend for gas and bloating. Generally, a light diet after surgery is recommended, at least the first day as some people may feel nauseated after anesthesia. Because of that, some doctors recommend avoiding dairy the first day and sipping ginger ale or ginger tea.
