A moving plate 408 is fixedly installed between one ends of the two sets of return springs 407, and four flexible massage balls 409 are fixedly installed on the surfaces of the two moving plates 408. The cams 406 are driven to rotate by the two motors 405, and the moving plates 408 are pushed to move by the cams 406. The flexible massage balls 409 have an adjustable massage effect on the surrounding area, thereby improving the recovery speed after surgery.

[0029] When implementing, follow these steps:

[0030] 1) When in use, the postoperative protective block 1 is put on, and the first connecting belt 201 and the second connecting belt 203 can be connected by sticking the Velcro hook surface 204 and the Velcro fleece surface 202 to fix the postoperative protective block 1;

[0031] 2) Then the postoperative protective plate 403 is fitted to the postoperative part of the person;

[0032] 3) Twist the worm 305 again to support the patient's chin with the support pad 309;

[0033] 4) Finally, the two motors 405 drive the flexible massage balls 409 to move back and forth, thus providing a massage effect on the patient's periphery.

[0034] In summary, the thyroid postoperative recovery protection device, by providing a spring 402 and a postoperative protection plate 403, can make the postoperative protection plate 403 fit the postoperative part of the person, and the No. 1 connecting belt 201 and the No. 2 connecting belt 203 can be connected by the adhesion between the Velcro hook surface 204 and the Velcro fur surface 202 to fix the postoperative protection block 1, and the person's chin is supported by the support pad 309 to prevent the wound from being damaged by lowering the head. The height of the support pad 309 can be adjusted according to the length of the patient's neck, and the worm 305 is twisted to drive the support pad 309 to move up and down to adapt to the length of the neck of different people, and it is widely practical.

[0035] Furthermore, by setting the coordination among the groove 404, the motor 405, the cam 406, the return spring 407, the movable plate 408 and the flexible massage ball 409, when the patient wears the postoperative protective block 1, the cam 406 is driven to rotate by the two motors 405, and the movable plate 408 is pushed to move by the cam 406, and the flexible massage ball 409 is used to massage the surrounding area. When the cam 406 is not in contact with the movable plate 408, the return spring 407 is used to drive the movable plate 408 to return to its original position, so that the flexible massage ball 409 can achieve the purpose of reciprocating movement, thereby realizing the massage effect and improving the recovery speed after surgery.
