Lumbar pain after 40 days of normal delivery will be better if you lie down

Scars, and women’s wounds heal much faster. Generally, you can get out of bed and walk upright the next day after a normal delivery, but after a caesarean section, you need to stay in bed for a week before you can move normally. However, some women find themselves experiencing lumbar pain 40 days after giving birth. What is going on?

How to deal with pain during childbirth?

1. Understand and accept it psychologically.

Fear in the heart comes from the fear of the unknown. The way to defeat the unknown is to know the known. Therefore, it is very necessary to understand the causes of pain during childbirth. Generally speaking, the cause of this extreme physical pain is uterine contractions.

In addition to uterine contractions, there is also pain at the moment of delivery due to pelvic discomfort or posture incoordination, or pain caused by the involvement of internal organs or compression of pelvic nerves.

2. Experts point out that when facing the pain of natural childbirth, you should have a relaxed attitude. The more nervous and afraid you are, the more the pain will be exacerbated. This vicious cycle can make clinical practice unpredictable. Therefore, when there is no uterine contraction pain, you must rest more. When facing contractions, don't shout and waste your energy.

During contractions, you can use the method of inhaling through your nose and exhaling through your mouth to divert the pain. When your attention is not focused on the pain, natural childbirth is not as scary as you imagined. Of course, massage, delivery positions, etc. can relieve pain. In order to reduce the pain of natural childbirth, water birth has come into being.

During childbirth, for their own good and for the good of their baby, most pregnant women will choose natural birth. But when an accident occurs, an emergency caesarean section will be performed. Regardless of the method of delivery, pain is certain to exist.

Ways to relieve back pain:

Ask a family member to help with the massage or use massage equipment.

Massage is a good way to relieve back pain. It is recommended to massage for 15-20 minutes every day, ask family members to help with massage, or use massage chairs and other massage equipment for massage. If the pain is severe, it is recommended to ask a professional doctor to massage for a period of time.

It is recommended to keep your waist warm.

When the waist is warm, the pain can naturally be relieved. It is recommended to prepare a hot pack. The feeling of back pain after childbirth is the same as the back pain during menstruation, a feeling of soreness and swelling. In general, you should pay attention to keeping your waist warm, that is, you should keep the hot pack on your waist at all times. Keep your waist warm when resting, and the back pain will be relieved.

Don't do housework in one go.

There is no need for women to be so hard on themselves. The house can be cleaned up slowly. Be kind to yourself. If you have a backache, you should not do heavy work. Just leave the strenuous work to your man. When you are tired, take a rest and then clean up. There is no end to the housework, so if you have a backache, do it slowly and in sections.

Drink Chinese medicine to regulate your body.

Postpartum back pain is generally caused by the fact that the entire body has not recovered yet, especially for women who have undergone caesarean section. The recovery time is slower than that of women who give birth naturally. Therefore, if the pain is always there, you should ask a Chinese medicine doctor to check your pulse and prescribe some Chinese medicine to regulate your body and relieve the back pain, and take good care of yourself.

You can apply a plaster externally, it must be the kind that produces fever.

Pain anywhere in the body will make people feel uncomfortable, so if it hurts, you have to find a way to solve it. For postpartum women's back pain, we can use external application of plasters, the kind that gets hotter the more you apply it, which has a therapeutic and relieving effect on pain.

Never do sit-ups.

I have tried this little oak. My waist has been hurting intermittently after giving birth. Like the sequelae I mentioned before, in order to lose the fat on my belly, I insisted on doing sit-ups for a week, and then my belly became flatter. But I really couldn't afford the injury. My waist was dislocated, and then I went to the hospital. The doctor put my bones back in place and made them creak. It was very painful. So it is recommended that postpartum mothers should exercise in moderation. If you have waist pain, it is not recommended to do sit-ups.
