What to do if you have back pain during confinement

Women always have physical problems of one kind or another after giving birth. The most common one is back pain after giving birth. Speaking of back pain after giving birth, it is a personal experience for many people. After ten months of pregnancy, I finally completed the great mission, but the next trouble also came, which is back pain. This back pain has lasted for many years. I have tried many methods but none of them worked. What should I do? How can I relieve the symptoms of postpartum back pain?

I can't even lie flat when I sleep. Once I do, I feel like my waist is going to break. I can't stand for too long either. Standing for too long will cause back pain, not to mention bending over to work. It hurts so much that I can't even straighten my back. It's really painful. And I tried many methods but nothing worked.

Two of my good sisters have the same problem. They both gave birth naturally, but they also often felt back pain. It seems that back pain after childbirth is a common symptom in women. It is a major killer that plagues women's health. So what should we do about back pain after childbirth? Here I would like to introduce some methods that can effectively relieve low back pain, hoping to help more mothers stay away from low back pain.

First of all, we need to understand the cause of postpartum low back pain. From the beginning of pregnancy, a woman's entire body's endocrine system undergoes a very big change. In order to ensure the smooth delivery of the fetus, the woman's body makes great sacrifices. The ligaments connecting the pelvis must be relaxed so that a smooth delivery can be achieved.

After childbirth, the ligaments of the pelvis cannot recover quickly and remain in a relaxed state. In addition, the abdominal muscles are also loose after childbirth, which increases the burden on the waist and causes back pain.

In fact, many women begin to experience back pain in the late stages of pregnancy. This is because the growing fetus causes pressure. So, the back pain continued after delivery. So how to relieve postpartum back pain?

If it is a mild back pain, just pay attention to the correct posture. When holding a child, be careful not to let the child's weight press on the waist and back.

It is best to follow the principle of "if you can stand, don't sit; if you can sit, don't lie down", because standing and sitting will keep the waist in the correct position and reduce pain.

So what should I do if I have severe back pain like the one I experienced? As mentioned before, it is caused by the relaxation of the lumbar ligaments. The best way is to maintain the correct posture and let the lumbar ligaments recover as soon as possible. The ligaments are collagen.

Therefore, it is recommended that sisters supplement more protein-containing foods. If the food supplements are slow to take effect, then directly supplement with protein powder. Also, calcium should be supplemented at the same time, because both the mother and fetus consume a lot of calcium during the entire pregnancy, which will lead to calcium deficiency. Calcium supplementation can also relieve pain.

Finally, the editor needs to remind the majority of female friends to pay attention to some details in daily life, such as not wearing high heels too early after giving birth, keeping the waist warm, trying to sleep on your back or side, the mattress should not be too soft, otherwise the waist will be deformed, and taking more walks or riding a bicycle. These exercises are good for the health of the waist.
