Coughing during confinement can cause uterine prolapse

Although bearing children is a woman's noble duty, pregnant women may also suffer from many problems after giving birth, such as abnormal leucorrhea and uterine prolapse. Although uterine prolapse after childbirth is not common, some women may experience uterine prolapse after giving birth. What are the symptoms of uterine prolapse after normal delivery? Let me give you a detailed introduction below.

1. The most obvious symptom is excessive vaginal discharge. Sometimes it appears as yellow pus or blood.

2. Frequent urination, urgency, inability to hold urine, and painful urination. When you cough, sneeze, laugh or walk, urine will involuntarily overflow from the urethra. Due to the frequent stimulation of urine, the private parts may become secondarily inflamed, becoming red, swollen, painful and itchy. Urinating is obstructed, and some patients have to lift their buttocks and squeeze hard to urinate.

3. Constipation, abdominal distension, and difficulty in defecation. When the uterus is prolapsed to the second or third degree, the posterior wall of the vagina may also protrude, and the duodenum will bend in an S shape as it protrudes, making it impossible for bowel movements to pass smoothly, leading to constipation and difficulty in defecation. Sometimes if you bend too much, it is difficult for gas to pass through and farts cannot be released, which leads to abdominal bloating.

4. Feeling of falling and back pain. It is especially severe in the superficial layer of the lumbar sacral region, but there is no tenderness at this point. It is caused by uterine prolapse, stretching of the surrounding supporting tissues, and secondary pelvic congestion. In addition, there is a feeling of heaviness and pain in the lower abdomen, vagina, and vulva. The symptoms are aggravated when standing for a long time, walking or working, but can be relieved or even disappear by lying down.

5. Objects slipping off the track. In patients with grade II and III uterine prolapse, the cervix and uterine body slip out of the vulva and can be retracted when lying flat.

Here I will give you a brief introduction to several common problems of uterine prolapse in women after childbirth.

1. Avoid eating cold seafood that can easily cause uterine prolapse, such as clams, snails and other seafood. Eating them will hurt your stomach and intestines, further aggravate the condition of uterine prolapse, and make uterine prolapse irreversible.

2. Avoid eating cold fruits, such as pears, melons, red grapefruits, lemons, sweet oranges, bananas, apples, apricots, sour dates, hawthorns, melons and other fruits. Eating them will damage the stomach and intestines and aggravate the symptoms of uterine prolapse.

3. Pay attention to rest after giving birth, do a good job of health care during the confinement period, try not to participate in heavy physical work, it is best to lie down or sit down when doing things, and try to avoid weight-bearing squats.

4. After giving birth, you can do some ani-lifting exercises to improve the symptoms of uterine prolapse. Contract the anal muscles to pull the anus upward as much as possible, 10-20 times each time, and do it more often if you have time every day.

5. Avoid eating foods that hurt your Qi, such as radish, pickled radish, bamboo shoots, cabbage, tea, vinegar and other foods. Excessive consumption will hurt your Qi and consume nutrients, resulting in insufficient nutrients for the body to repair after giving birth, which will cause weak uterine contractions.

How to prevent visceral prolapse after childbirth

Visceral prolapse after childbirth is one of the complications after childbirth. During the confinement period, you must pay attention to preventing visceral prolapse, because visceral prolapse may be the root cause of all female gynecological and decadent diseases, and will cause a small belly. So, how to prevent visceral prolapse after childbirth?

When pregnant women are giving birth, they must always wear a belly band to tighten their abdomen and prevent their internal organs from falling out. If the abdomen initially has a loose, organ-like appearance, the belly band can also be tied frequently to improve the delivery process. The abdominal belt used is a white Changsha cloth belt, about 1200 cm long and 15 cm wide. Each person must prepare two belts for replacement. Because pregnant women need to be warmed up after giving birth and always sweat, if they sweat, they should remove the abdominal belt, dry their abdomen, then sprinkle some non-cooling talcum powder, and then tie it tightly. If sweating is severe, be sure to replace the abdominal belt with a clean one. For the binding method, please refer to "Abdominal Belt Binding Method". If you use a general sticky tights or tight pants, it not only has no effect on preventing organ prolapse, but may also compress the internal organs and block blood circulation, causing deformation of the internal organs or abdominal distension, causing shortness of breath or lower abdominal protrusion. Please be careful!

How to tie the abdominal belt:

Specifications: The abdominal belt used is a breathable white sand cloth, 1200 cm long and 15 cm wide

Usage: For pregnant women, because they don't wear clothes (first tie the belly band and then put on underwear), they are flat against the skin and easy to sweat. You need to prepare 2 pairs for replacement every time.

Function: a. Prevent internal organs from sagging (generally, abdominal corsets are not suitable) b. Tighten the abdomen and reduce abdominal distension

The first time to bind: Natural birth - the second day after giving birth; Caesarean section - the sixth day (within 5 days); Abortion - the second day after the operation

Daily disassembly and re-tying time: remove before meals and tie again before meals; remove before bathing and tie again after bathing; tie for 24 hours 2 weeks after childbirth, tie again if loose; after 3 weeks, tie in daytime and remove at night
