How to recover from pubic pain after normal delivery

Many mothers who choose natural childbirth will have their pelvic bones stretched by the fetus due to excessive force during delivery, and the surrounding muscles and cruciate ligaments will be damaged due to excessive stretching. Therefore, many mothers will have toe pain after giving birth. So, how to recover from pubic pain after normal childbirth? Let's have a simple understanding of this issue. I hope the following points will be helpful to everyone!

What is pubic separation?

Metatarsal pain mainly occurs at the junction of the thigh root and abdomen. This type of pain does not occur only after the pregnant woman has given birth, but has already appeared in the late pregnancy. In the late pregnancy, as the fetus grows and develops, the fetal head entering the pelvis will also expand the pelvis, causing pubic separation. What are the consequences of toe pain and poor toe repair? If the toe repair is not good, the main symptoms after giving birth are not only toe pain, but also uterine prolapse, vaginal relaxation, urinary incontinence and other troubles.

Pubic separation, what should the mother do?

1. Early activity after giving birth

The best way to relieve toe pain is to resume activity as soon as possible. Bed rest after giving birth is more likely to cause toe pain. Mothers who choose natural childbirth are advised to resume activities on the first day after giving birth. Mothers who have undergone cesarean section should also resume activities as soon as possible. Getting out of bed as soon as possible can not only speed up the recovery of toe bones, but also stimulate gastrointestinal motility, prevent vascular embolism, and relieve bloating. It is best for mothers who have delivered by caesarean section to use a belly band when getting out of bed and moving around.

2. Comfortable bedding set

Choosing a comfortable mattress is especially important for mother's toe bone repair. The mattress should not be too hard or too soft. A mattress that is too soft will cause excessive support on the spine and pelvis, and you will not be able to get enough rest, which will cause back pain and leg pain the next day. A mattress that is too hard will put too much pressure on the pelvis due to its own force and the body curve. Choose a mattress with appropriate hardness and softness, so that the mattress can completely cater to our body curves, and the actual effect is best.

3. Pubic separation fitness exercise

You can do yoga poses to repair pubic separation half a month after giving birth. The mother kneels on the fitness mat with her back, supports herself with her hands, stretches her right leg backward, holds for 5 seconds, and returns to the kneeling position. Switching feet and returning to kneeling position counts as one cycle, and continue for 5 cycles.

4. Helps supplement calcium and zinc

After giving birth, eat more fish, shrimp, walnuts, milk and other calcium-rich foods, and also pay attention to supplementing vitamin D and sun exposure. If you supplement calcium and zinc immediately, your pelvis will be stronger and less prone to injury.

5. Use the abdominal belt appropriately

It is very necessary to use a belly band after giving birth. Generally, hospitals will provide a belly belt after giving birth. It is good to use the one provided by the hospital. Don't blindly believe in advertisements. Those belts on sale are not much better than those provided by hospitals, but the price is much higher.
