Hello!Thank you for posting here.
Have small meals frequently.Increase your liquid intake. Have only soft food.Avoid hard and spicy food stuffs. Take bland food that can easily be digested by the body .Reduce fiber foods. Fats and oils should also be avoided.
Liquid intake in the body must be increased.Include salty juices, diluted fruit juices, electrolytes, milk and eggs in the patient's diet.
hope this helps.
