Some women will also experience uterine pain after giving birth, which is very similar to uterine contraction pain. In order to prevent this pain from happening, women should learn to relieve it themselves. When necessary, we can choose massage or pressing methods, because uterine contraction pain after giving birth will also cause certain harm to women's bodies. So how to relieve uterine contraction pain after giving birth? Generally speaking, postpartum uterine contraction pain will occur within 1-2 days after delivery and disappear naturally after 4-7 days. No special care is required. However, if the mother is in unbearable pain, she can also take the following measures to relieve the pain: 1. Change sleeping position: Let the mother sleep on her side and avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time to reduce pain in this area. It may also be helpful to put a cushion under the mother's buttocks when sitting. 2. Massage the lower abdomen: In the first few days after delivery, you or your family can use your palms to apply a little force to help the mother do circular massage until you feel the area harden, so as to promote the discharge of residual substances in the uterine cavity; when the pain is severe, massage can temporarily relax the uterine muscles and relieve pain. 3. Hot compress: Use a hot water bag to apply hot compress to the lower abdomen for half an hour each time. Be careful not to use too high a temperature to avoid burns. 4. Take painkillers: If the pain from uterine contractions affects your rest and sleep, you should notify your medical staff. If necessary, you can use mild sedatives to relieve the pain. It should be noted that you must follow the doctor's advice and never take medicine at random. 5. Traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture: Acupuncture at Zhongji, Guanyuan, Sanyinjiao, Zusanli and other acupoints can also relieve postpartum uterine contraction pain. 6. Psychological care: Use distraction, massage, and deep breathing to eliminate the mother’s nervousness and improve her tolerance to pain. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : |
