Why do I have knee pain after giving birth?

After ten months of pregnancy, giving birth is a very happy thing for many pregnant mothers. After giving birth, many women need to stay in confinement to recuperate their bodies. However, many women need to breastfeed artificially after giving birth, so they cannot get a good rest during the confinement period. Why do many women suffer from knee pain after giving birth? Let’s take a look together below!

1. This symptom is typical of postpartum rheumatism, which is caused by not paying attention to maintenance during the confinement period after giving birth to a child. Being exposed to wind, water, air conditioning, washing hair, sweating, wearing slippers, walking outside, getting angry, etc. can all lead to symptoms of postpartum rheumatism. The main symptoms of postpartum rheumatism are soreness, numbness, fear of cold, heaviness and fatigue, lack of energy, yellow complexion, and a significant decrease in memory. This disease can be completely cured with Chinese medicine, and it can be eradicated. You must take Chinese medicine first to expel the wind, dampness, and coldness from the body, and then the symptoms you mentioned will naturally heal.

2. When pregnant women are giving birth, the pores and joints of their skin are opened. In addition, the qi and blood are deficient after childbirth. Once they are exposed to cold wind and wind, the cold will be retained in the joints and muscles, causing "postpartum disease." In addition, changing diapers, feeding and doing other housework for the baby will aggravate the damage to the muscles and joints, causing damage to the tendons and nerves in the fingers and wrists, causing "extensor tendonitis" and "carpal tunnel syndrome", and pain in the fingers and wrists.

3. Pay attention to keeping your body warm after delivery and do not use cold water to do housework too early. Normally, when washing hands, feet, and face, be sure to use hot water and avoid contact with cold water.

4. Do not overexert yourself when taking care of your baby. When your wrists and fingers hurt, you must take a rest. It is best to ask someone else to take care of the baby temporarily. During the confinement period, eat less spicy and sour foods, eat less bananas, and drink less beer.

The above introduces some issues about knee pain after giving birth. Although many women follow the habit of confinement, there are still many aspects that may not be noticed. At this time, other people in the family need to take good care of the baby, so that the mother can have enough sleep time, and also need to pay attention to less oil and salt in the diet.
