Blisters on feet during confinement

Women need to carefully regulate their bodies after giving birth in order to recover their strength as quickly as possible. Some women will experience some abnormal phenomena during the postpartum recovery period, such as blisters on the feet, and these abnormal symptoms will also cause some worries for women who have just given birth. So, what causes blisters on feet after giving birth?

1. If a woman has blisters on her feet after giving birth and is accompanied by symptoms such as itching, it should be mainly considered as bacterial infection of the feet, also known as athlete's foot. The main reason is that women's bodies are in a relatively weak state after giving birth. The body's resistance and immunity will be relatively reduced, making it easy to be invaded by pathogens, leading to infection with some skin diseases.

2. If bacterial infections occur on the hands and feet after giving birth, it is recommended to go to the hospital's dermatology department for a detailed examination, and use laboratory tests and other examination methods to determine the type of bacterial infection, and then choose targeted use of antifungal drugs for local smear treatment.

3. In addition, during the treatment period of foot bacteria, attention should be paid to cleanliness and hygiene. Cotton towels and foot basins should be used separately and disinfected. They can be scrubbed with boiling water. If conditions permit, the cotton towels can be boiled and disinfected, or exposed to the sun for disinfection. Bacterial infections are contagious to a certain extent. Cross-infection should be avoided, and medication should be taken on time to avoid recurrence due to incomplete treatment.
