What causes back pain after childbirth?

You must pay attention to the problem of back pain after childbirth and make correct adjustments after understanding the cause. This is mainly because many women have increased weight on their waist and abdomen during pregnancy, which leads to spinal lordosis. After giving birth, this may cause increased fatigue of the lumbar muscles and cause pain.

1. Women often experience back pain after giving birth . This is a normal physiological reaction. Don't worry too much about it. However, it is important to remind you that you should pay more attention to rest after giving birth! Proper rest can effectively relieve the symptoms of back pain.

2. Causes

1. Because the weight on the waist of pregnant women increases during pregnancy, the spine is lordotic, and the extensor muscles are constantly tense, causing "fatigue soreness" in the lower back or muscle groups above the sacrum.

2. Some mothers spend most of their time lying in bed during the "confinement period" and rarely move, which can also cause lumbar muscle fatigue and aggravate lower back pain.

3. Solution

1. Allow the waist and back muscles to get proper rest, because when the muscles are in pain, they will release a pain substance that continues to stimulate the surrounding tissues, causing contraction of blood vessels and muscles, and causing new pain. If they are not well cared for, it will become a vicious cycle and the pain will continue.

2. Spend as much time as possible lying down. This can reduce the burden on the muscles around the spine that support the body upright and relax them. Generally, many Chinese medicinal materials are added to tonic foods, and wine is used as a medicine guide. These Chinese medicinal materials can relax the meridians and promote blood circulation, dilate capillaries, and increase blood circulation.

3. You can lie flat on your back on the bed, bend your knees and bring them towards your chest. Hold your knees with both hands, slowly exert force, and bring them as close to your chest as possible. Maintain this position for 1-2 seconds, and then return to lying flat. You can also sit upright on a chair with your legs apart, relax your hands between your knees, bend your body forward and touch the floor, and then immediately return to an upright sitting position. Please note that you should return to a sitting position quickly, but bend down slowly.
