What should I do if my legs feel cold during confinement?

The confinement period for women is actually a rather painful period. On the one hand, due to the great consumption during childbirth, the body may sweat from time to time, but they also have to pay attention to keeping warm. Many mothers neglect to keep warm, which will cause cold pain in the body. Especially on the legs, what should you do if you feel your legs are cold? At this time, in addition to keeping warm, you can also take measures such as hot compresses with coarse salt or soaking your feet in hot water to relieve the symptoms.

【Knee pads to keep warm】

Knee pain is very torturous. Not only middle-aged and elderly people suffer from knee pain, but those of us who have just given birth will be afflicted if we are not careful. After the knees get cold, you must keep warm. No matter when, even when sleeping, it is best to wear knee pads to keep warm. I personally think the effect is very good. Moreover, when the weather is cold, you must wear thicker clothes. Don't lose not only the temperature but also the health for the sake of style.

【Regular exercise】

Exercise can improve our ability to resist cold and help us improve our cold-sensitive constitution. As the saying goes, exercise in winter can help you avoid getting sick. This shows how important exercise is to human health. To this end, we can try squatting three times a day to strengthen the quadriceps. I do weight loss exercises every day. Why not do it?

【Hot compress with coarse salt】

Using coarse salt to hot compress the affected area can effectively relieve the pain caused by the invasion of cold air. Due to the large particles of coarse salt, it absorbs more heat energy, dissipates heat evenly and slowly, and gives the affected area enough warmth to make the affected area more comfortable. It is recommended that when using coarse salt hot compress treatment, the temperature should not be too high and the hot compress area should be correct. It should be pointed out that this method is prohibited for patients with acute injuries accompanied by bleeding.

【Hot water foot bath】

Soaking your feet can accelerate blood circulation, and soaking your feet in hot water can drive away the cold, especially in winter. Soak your feet in hot water for about half an hour every night. Sometimes I like to add some salt, and sometimes add ginger slices. These have the effect of removing cold and dampness and improving sleep. Sometimes I am too lazy and just use hot water. It is very effective. As long as you can persist every day, the cold and pain in the knees can be solved.

【Food to drive away the cold】

Beef and mutton are well-known foods for dispelling cold, and they are also foods we eat frequently. In addition, foods such as kelp, seaweed, cabbage, spinach, etc. can increase calories and promote blood circulation, thereby playing a role in resisting cold. Winter is approaching, so everyone should eat more cold-repelling foods.
