How to remedy cold shoulders during confinement

The cold shoulders during the confinement period can be remedied. The cold is mainly caused by factors such as wind and air conditioning during the confinement period. This will affect the discharge of postpartum lochia, the contraction of the uterus and the discharge of blood stasis. Therefore, you should pay attention to keeping warm during the confinement period. If your shoulders get cold during confinement, you can use massage and exercise to remedy the situation, or you can use moxibustion or acupuncture to remove moisture.

If your shoulders get cold during confinement, if it is not too serious, you can take a hot bath for 30 minutes every day, lie on a hard bed, and do two sets of flying swallow exercises every day. However, it is recommended to consult a gynecologist and take relevant care in daily life.

Keep warm during confinement:

The indoor temperature should be between 20℃ and 25℃. In the south where there is no heating, air conditioning and electric heaters can be used to maintain the indoor temperature; and when the climate is dry, it is also very important to maintain appropriate indoor humidity. Generally speaking, the indoor humidity should be between 55% and 65% (in order to know the indoor humidity conditions at any time, you can buy a hygrometer). A more convenient way to increase humidity is to buy a humidifier. It would be even better if it also has a sterilization function, or put a basin of water in the room.

Daily care during confinement

1. Be sure to rest for one month or one and a half months. For two weeks after delivery, you must stay in bed except for eating and going to the bathroom. If you sit or walk around frequently, it may cause uterine prolapse.

2. Prepare two or three strips of white gauze with a width of about 30-40 cm and a length that can wrap around the abdomen 12 and a half times. After delivery, you should tie a belly band tightly to prevent your internal organs from sagging. Prolapse of internal organs will lead to gynecological diseases, protruding abdomen and ugly body shape. Wearing a belly band can also improve the condition of an obvious lower abdomen before childbirth. The abdominal band cannot be replaced by ordinary pants or abdominal belts. Because not only do they have no effect, they also have a counterproductive effect.

3. In the first two weeks, you can only use warm wine water for sponge bath. The method is to boil half water and half rice wine, add a little salt, soak a towel in it, wring it dry, and rub it on your body. You can take a shower from the third week and take a bath after the full month. (Natural delivery)

4. Use boiled water until it is warm before washing your face or brushing your teeth. You can use skin care products.
