How to treat rheumatic confinement disease

Everyone knows that women need a period of rest after giving birth, and they must rest for a full thirty days. This period of time is called confinement. For female friends, confinement after childbirth is a very happy time, but also accompanied by painful days, because there are many things that need to be paid attention to during this period. If you don't pay enough attention, some women will suffer from confinement diseases. So, how to treat rheumatic confinement disease?

The diseases acquired during the confinement period are difficult to cure, so female friends are reminded not to get angry, not to eat cold and hard food, and to take good care of themselves during the confinement period. Pay attention to keeping warm and avoid catching cold, so as to avoid rheumatism and other diseases after the full moon.

Postpartum disease refers to a general term for various diseases caused by exogenous pathogens in women after giving birth (including miscarriage and abortion), and the diseases that remain if they are not cured during the confinement period. After giving birth, women's muscles, bones and pores are opened, their bodies are weak, and their insides and outsides are empty. If wind and cold invade accidentally at this time, or if they are extremely angry or sad, or have too much sexual intercourse, these may cause postpartum disease. Also called postpartum rheumatism, menstrual disease, and menstrual tuberculosis.

What are the postpartum diseases: excessive sadness, worry, crying in the wind, and depression can easily cause liver qi stagnation, leading to poor blood circulation. Stagnant qi and blood can easily lose nutrition, and wind evil can invade accidentally. The clinical symptoms of this postpartum disease are: fear of cold, fear of wind, blindness, blurred vision (astigmatism), pain in the eyes and eye sockets, migraine, trance, and depression. In addition to pain when moving joints, there are also numbness, twitching, swelling and pain. During the confinement period, women's muscles, bones and pores are wide open, their qi and blood are weak, and they are empty inside and out. They are easily invaded by wind, cold and dampness. The clinical symptoms of this confinement disease are: numbness of limbs, difficulty in flexion and extension, headache, dizziness, swelling, stiffness, poor appetite, little and difficult urination, fear of cold and wind all over the body, sweating, pain when moving joints, and aggravated pain when exposed to cold and wind. They need to wear more clothes. Severe patients need to wear cotton clothes in hot summer. According to Chinese medicine theory, this is "cold evil entering the bones." One reason why it is difficult to treat is that women have a natural recovery period of 100 days during the confinement period, and their muscles, bones and pores are closed, which can trap rheumatism and cold evil into the body and prevent them from being expelled. The pathogenic factors stay in the body for a long time, damaging the skin, muscles and bones, and leading to serious muscle and bone diseases. Anemia caused by excessive blood loss after childbirth and intrauterine blood congestion can cause postpartum diseases such as physical weakness, dizziness, abdominal pain, and back pain. Women are forbidden to have sexual intercourse during the confinement period. Excessive sexual intercourse will damage the yin and essence. Deficiency of both yin and essence will lead to emptiness of tendons and bones, which allow wind evil to invade. Its main clinical symptoms include fear of cold and wind, and joint pain, as well as heaviness of the whole body, weakness, back pain, and fatigue intolerance. Some patients also have rheumatic and rheumatoid symptoms.
