What to do if you get prickly heat during the confinement period

In my country, people attach great importance to the postpartum confinement customs of women, and many people adopt the confinement method of the older generation, which is to cover the mother with a mattress all the time, saying that the mother should not be exposed to cold or wind. However, it is very easy to get prickly heat if you cover the mother with a mattress in hot weather. Due to lack of experience, many new mothers have encountered such a situation. So what should they do if they get fever and prickly heat during confinement?

What to do if you have fever and prickly heat during confinement

Women usually sweat a lot during the confinement period, and if they do not take a bath regularly, they will be infected with bacteria. It is very common to get prickly heat, so you must take good care of your skin hygiene during the confinement period. Also remember to drink more water during the confinement period. You can use talcum powder to treat your prickly heat, but you must know how to use it appropriately.

What should women pay attention to during confinement?

1. The nutrition during confinement should be balanced. How pregnant women eat is related to whether the child's nutrient intake is sufficient. Therefore, eating more high-protein foods and foods that are easy to digest and absorb can help pregnant women recover better. In terms of diet, don't eat spicy or irritating foods.

2. You must have enough sleep after delivery. If pregnant women do not sleep well during the confinement period, they will look listless, which is not only not conducive to postpartum recovery, but also affects the secretion of milk and affects the baby.

3. During the confinement period, you should maintain a happy mood, do not use a hair dryer and do not squat for a long time. Also, do not touch cold water. The pores of women's skin are open after delivery. If you touch cold water, you will get rheumatism. Do a good job of keeping warm.

Scientific and standardized confinement is good for women's postpartum recovery, and the body will be healthier. Although women should not catch cold during the confinement period, they should also pay attention to proper ventilation. Women during the confinement period should pay more attention to their diet, because there are more nutrients that need to be supplemented, so they should make an appropriate combination, pay attention to keeping warm, and exercise properly.
