Swollen and painful gums, to put it simply, means that the gums around the front teeth are swollen, which actually means pain at the roots of the front teeth. Generally, women take some tonic products during the confinement period and breastfeeding period. At this time, the blood and qi will be more abundant, and the mouth will be prone to getting inflamed, which will cause swollen and painful gums. During this special period of breastfeeding, mothers cannot take any medication at will because they need to feed their babies. What should I do if my face becomes swollen due to gum inflammation during breastfeeding? 1. Drink more warm water. Drinking more water can detoxify the body and eliminate heat. It is not wrong to drink more water if the swollen and painful gums are caused by oral inflammation. It does not affect the metabolism of milk and has no side effects. 2. Drink some mung bean porridge, white fungus and lotus seed soup or pear water in moderation. This kind of food is cold in nature and can reduce internal heat. Be careful not to drink too much, because eating too much food that reduces internal heat will affect the secretion of milk. 3. Eat less chicken and other foods that are easy to cause heat, because you need to breastfeed during the confinement period and need more breast milk. You can eat non-heaty foods such as pig tripe, pig trotter and bone soup instead. 4. Be careful when eating during breastfeeding. Do not eat spicy food. Because the food you eat during the confinement period is already very nutritious, it is not suitable to consume too much nutritious food. 5. Don't eat hot things such as oranges and mangoes. In addition, eat less hot spices such as pepper and fennel that can easily cause getting angry. 6. Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits. Vegetables, such as cabbage, carrot, eggplant, lettuce, etc., these vegetables and fruits can clear away heat, detoxify and relieve restlessness, and are conducive to mothers who are prone to "getting angry" to eat them regularly; fruits, such as pears, apples, green dates, bananas, etc., these fruits can also play the role of clearing heat, detoxifying and removing fire. 7. You don’t need to drink a lot of brown sugar ginger water during breastfeeding. Just drink a moderate amount. If you get drunk, you will get a sore throat. 8. Eat some bitter foods in moderation, such as rock sugar lotus seed soup. 9. You need to lubricate your intestines after giving birth. Detoxification of the body is very important. The heat must be expelled so that the evil fire has a direction to develop and will not accumulate in the body and cause getting inflamed easily. 10. Gargling with salt water to cleanse the mouth can reduce internal heat and also have the effect of sterilization and disinfection. 11. Mothers must relieve stress during breastfeeding. Releasing mental stress, getting rid of anxiety and depression, getting enough sleep, avoiding staying up late, maintaining a regular work and rest schedule, and other positive and optimistic lifestyle habits are very good panaceas for reducing heat. Although you cannot take medicine casually during this special period of breastfeeding, if you experience serious inflammation, you must see a doctor immediately. The doctor will strongly recommend some professional anti-inflammatory products for you to take. Some rumors say that pregnant women cannot brush their teeth, and that they will catch a cold after brushing their teeth. This is an incorrect idea. Pregnant women should not only pay attention to nutrition, but also pay attention to oral health. They should brush their teeth like ordinary people and rinse their mouths after eating. This will not only not damage the health of pregnant women, but also reduce the occurrence of dental diseases. |
