What to do if the mother's wound hurts

Generally speaking, delivery is divided into caesarean section and natural delivery. Caesarean section is a method of delivery in which the doctor will make a side cut through the mother's perineum when conditions do not allow and take the fetus out through the incision. This wound will have a long recovery period, and the mother will experience more pain than a normal birth. It is normal for a woman to feel pain in her wound after childbirth. She should calm down and recover slowly over time.

What to do if the wound hurts after childbirth?

The pain from birth wounds referred to here includes episiotomy that most mothers who give birth naturally will experience, and the incision that mothers who give birth by cesarean section will experience.

Generally speaking, the main component of scar tissue from a knife edge is collagen fiber. After a period of time, the collagen fibers will be broken down and absorbed, causing the scar tissue to soften and shrink, and the pain to decrease or disappear.

However, a small number of women are born with a scar-prone physique, that is, excessive synthesis of collagen fibers during the wound healing stage causes scar hypertrophy, forming irregular lumps that protrude from the skin and are painful when pressed, which are called keloids. The wound during childbirth is still raised after healing, and

If you feel pain when you press, it may be a keloid.

suggestion:

1. You should ask a doctor to observe carefully as soon as possible to determine whether a keloid has formed on the incision. If keloids are formed, topical ointment can be applied to relieve keloids and discomfort. However, it is best to use the medication under the guidance of a doctor.

2. If the scar is particularly severe, you can go to the hospital for surgery to remove the scar and then use special materials to suture the incision.
