What should I do if the wound is a little red?

Although wounds are not unfamiliar to most people, some people have strong skin healing ability, so their wounds may recover faster than others, but for others, it is slower and the wounds may even turn red. But what should you do if the wound is a little red? Regardless of the cause of the wound, people should pay special attention to protection. It is normal for the wound to be red as it heals, as long as it is not infected.

The surgical wound caused by caesarean section generally takes about three weeks to scab. After the scab forms, the wound will begin to enter the stage of proliferation. This proliferation takes a long time, and during the proliferation process, the wound will be locally red and new nerve endings will be produced, so it will also be accompanied by pain and discomfort. In order to effectively relieve the redness and pain of the caesarean section wound, we can take the following methods:

1. Women who have undergone cesarean section can rest in a side-lying position. This can effectively reduce the tension required for wound pulling and thus effectively relieve pain.

2. Pay attention to keeping the wound dry and clean, and replace relevant medicines in time. In addition, in the hot summer, remember to clean the sweat produced around the wound in time to avoid redness and pain caused by sweat irritation. Be sure to protect your wound and avoid other accidental injuries from the outside world.

3. In addition, you can also effectively improve and relieve the redness and pain of the wound through diet, maintain a balanced nutrition, and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, which can also play an auxiliary role in the recovery of the wound.

It is very normal for the wound to become red and painful after a cesarean section. It is also a stage that most women who have had a cesarean section need to go through. Although cesarean section reduces the pain of women during childbirth, the time required for postpartum recovery after a cesarean section is longer than that for women who have had a natural birth, and they need to endure more pain in this process. Therefore, the pain of a cesarean section is no less than that of a natural birth. Therefore, we must pay attention to postpartum care.
