MYTHS ABOUT SURGERY DEBUNKED!
Too many people fear surgery because of stories that are simply not true. At Dr. Chuwanga Clinic, we believe knowledge is power, and the right information can save a life.
MYTH 1: “Surgery is always dangerous.”
FACT: Modern surgical procedures are safer than ever. With skilled surgeons, advanced equipment, and proper pre-surgery evaluations, the risks are minimized. Most patients recover smoothly with proper care.
MYTH 2: “If you do surgery once, you’ll keep doing surgeries forever.”
FACT: Not true. Surgery is done to correct a problem, not create more. In many cases, one successful procedure prevents future complications.
MYTH 3: “Surgery is only the last resort.”
FACT: Early surgical intervention can prevent severe complications. Waiting too long can make conditions worse and more difficult to treat.
MYTH 4: “All surgeries require long hospital stays.”
FACT: Many procedures today are same-day surgeries, meaning you go home the same day. Recovery times have improved greatly.
MYTH 5: “Surgical wounds take forever to heal.”
FACT: With proper post-operative care, most wounds heal quickly. Patients receive clear guidance to ensure fast and safe recovery.
MYTH 6: “I’ll be in unbearable pain.”
FACT: Pain management has advanced. Doctors use tailored medication plans to keep patients comfortable throughout recovery.
