After a cesarean section, a woman's body needs special care and conditioning, because the body is relatively weak after a cesarean section and needs more time to recover.

1. Women have physiological characteristics such as menstruation, pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding, as well as pathological characteristics such as menstrual disorders, leucorrhea, pregnancy diseases, gynecological diseases, and birth control, so low back pain is a common symptom. More than 80% of multiparous women may experience low back pain, especially during menstruation, pregnancy and postpartum period, which is often considered to be physiological pain and does not require special treatment. In fact, the degree of low back pain in women varies from person to person, there are great clinical differences, and the duration of the pain also varies. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out some treatment, but more importantly, it is one's own self-recovery and health care. Low back pain may not seem to be a serious illness, but severe cases can affect work and life, causing pain to patients. Moreover, it often recurs and is difficult to cure completely. The following are some of the common causes of low back pain in women: abnormal position of the uterus, pelvic inflammatory disease, pelvic tumors, pelvic blood disease, IUD insertion and other stimulation, which can also cause low back pain by compressing the nerves; relaxation of the sacrospinal ligament and lumbar muscle strain can increase the support force of the waist and fatigue can cause low back pain; too many births, frequent abortions, excessive sexual activity or exogenous dampness can also cause low back pain.

Women with low back pain should pay attention to keeping warm, especially in the cold and damp seasons of winter and spring, and they need to keep their waists warm. Try to avoid getting wet in the rain and catching cold, sleeping in the wind at night, etc. Avoid lying in damp places for a long time. In cold and damp seasons, you can use an electric heating mattress to dispel the cold and keep warm. Regular waist movements can stretch the waist muscles and promote blood circulation in local muscles. Therefore, for patients who sit or stand for long periods of time at work, they should exercise their waist appropriately from time to time to relieve tension in the waist muscles and relieve pain. For example, you can walk a little indoors, do some exercises to move your waist, etc.
