Cesarean section scar hyperplasia

After a cesarean section, patients should pay attention to the scars on their bodies, because these scars are not immobile. Sometimes scar hyperplasia may occur, and the scars will slowly grow and expand along the edges. It is important to do preventive work early, especially when the scars fall off after surgery. Do not rush to tear them off with your hands, otherwise it will be itchy and painful. Take care of the wound in time.

Caesarean scar repair

During the cesarean section scar repair process, mothers should pay attention to some precautions and start from the details, such as avoiding friction, avoiding direct sunlight, etc., so that the scar can be repaired faster and better.

1. Do not remove the scab from the incision too early after surgery. Removing the scab too early and forcibly will take away the epidermal cells that are still in the repair stage, even tear off the dermal tissue, and stimulate itching of the wound;

2. Avoid excessive friction and activity. Generally, the surface structure and function of scars are not perfect enough, and the epidermis is easily damaged. Some incorrect practices can easily damage it. When wiping scar medicine, do not use too much force or for too long. For joints, do not exercise frequently or excessively, which may cause the scar epidermis to loosen and separate, causing blisters.

3. Avoid sunlight to prevent ultraviolet stimulation and pigmentation;

4. Carry out prevention in the early stage. Pay attention to methods to prevent scar formation from the beginning, and be prepared to prevent scar formation at every stage. If you want to completely eliminate scars and restore your skin to its original appearance, you need to use scar removal products to achieve ideal results.

5. Pay attention to your diet during the scar repair period and avoid alcohol, peppers, onions, garlic and other irritating foods that will cause scars to itch.

How to take care of your cesarean section scar

Caesarean section scar care requires carefulness and caution, and both diet and hygiene must be scientific and reasonable. When itching occurs, avoid scratching or taking any medication.

1. Pay attention to keeping the scar clean, wipe off sweat stains in time, and be careful not to soak it in hot water, scratch it with your hands, or rub it with clothes. When the wound is just healing, there will be some secretions, which is the most likely place for bacteria to breed. At this time, the epidermis of the wound is very thin, which can easily cause infection and ulceration. During this period, you can clean it with a neutral detergent and then treat it with some anti-scar medication.

2. Apply some topical medications such as Fuqingsong, triamcinolone, dexamethasone, etc. to relieve itching.

3. Improve your diet and eat more fruits, eggs, lean meat, pork skin and other foods rich in vitamins C, E and essential amino acids. These foods can promote blood circulation and improve epidermal metabolism. Avoid eating spicy foods such as peppers, onions and garlic.

4. Keep the scar clean and hygienic, wipe off sweat in time, do not scratch it with your hands, rub the scar with clothes or use water to relieve itching, so as not to aggravate local irritation, promote inflammatory reaction of connective tissue, and cause further itching.

5. After the scars and scabies are removed, silicone care dressings such as Mepiform should be used immediately to prevent scar hyperplasia, prevent scar hyperplasia and protrusions, increase pigmentation, and affect appearance.
