What is the real reason for low back pain after cesarean section?

1. Low back pain may be a sequelae of anesthesia.

It is undeniable that some of the low back pain after cesarean section is a sequelae of anesthesia. The anesthesia during cesarean section is epidural anesthesia, which requires a puncture in the waist. This puncture will cause certain damage to the muscles and ligaments of the waist and back, causing postpartum low back pain. Among them, a very small number of mothers also have symptoms of nerve root damage and epidural hemorrhage after delivery.

2. Low back pain may be caused by calcium deficiency.

Calcium deficiency in the mother's physique is also a cause of postpartum back pain. During pregnancy and delivery, the pregnant woman's physique is relatively weak, and coupled with the need to breastfeed after delivery, the loss of calcium in the body will be very serious, which can easily cause postpartum back pain.

3. Low back pain may be caused by postpartum fatigue.

As the saying goes, "Postpartum diseases can be cured by postpartum care." If postpartum back pain is not treated properly during the postpartum period, it will be a major health hazard for the mother. Many mothers start to be busy with various housework and taking care of the baby after giving birth. If they overdraw their physical strength, their bodies will be overwhelmed. This will naturally cause back pain in the long run.

4. Low back pain may be caused by lack of exercise.

The older generation believes that "confinement" means resting in bed, so many women sit in bed for a long time during the confinement period. However, in fact, long-term lack of exercise will lead to slow blood circulation in the body, increase abdominal fat, increase the burden on the waist muscles, cause lumbar muscle strain and cause low back pain.
