Chest tightness and panic after abortion

Abortion is now a very common obstetric surgery. The risk of the surgery is not very high, but there are many things to pay attention to after the operation. If you are not careful, it will cause serious sequelae, especially miscarriage syndrome. If we find that we have chest tightness after the operation, we should supplement nutrients in time. If the effect is not good, we need to go to the hospital for a chest X-ray in time to rule out heart disease. Secondly, you must have enough rest time after the operation.

1. What is miscarriage syndrome?

Post-abortion syndrome refers to the fact that a small number of women experience nausea, vomiting, dizziness, chest tightness, shortness of breath, pale complexion, profuse sweating, cold limbs, low blood pressure, irregular heartbeat, etc. during the implementation of artificial abortion operations. In severe cases, they may also experience a series of symptoms such as coma, convulsions, and shock. During abortion, the cervix is ​​pulled and dilated, and the negative pressure and the impact of the curette on the uterine wall stimulate the nerve endings distributed in these areas. Most pregnant women control their condition through self-regulation of the nervous system, but a few have poor autonomic nervous system stability, which increases the vagus nerve's own reflexes and releases a large amount of acetylcholine in the body, causing coronary artery spasm, weakened myocardial contractility, and reduced cardiac output, resulting in the above-mentioned series of manifestations.

2. Dietary conditioning for miscarriage syndrome

1. In terms of diet for miscarriage syndrome, vitamin B1, vitamin B6, niacin, vitamin C, potassium, iron and calcium in the diet are essential elements to fight negative emotions. Foods such as chocolate, cheese, apples, bananas, day lily, nuts (peanuts, walnuts, pine nuts, etc.), dairy products, etc. are foods that can help you maintain a peaceful state of mind.

2. In addition, pork, animal liver, and blood tofu also have the effect of replenishing iron and producing blood. Maintaining adequate intake of vitamin C in daily diet can increase the efficiency of iron absorption and utilization.

3. Chinese medicine conditioning for miscarriage syndrome

Traditional medicine believes that the weakness, paleness, back pain, and fatigue that often occur after painless abortion surgery are caused by damage to both Qi and blood. Foods such as astragalus, donkey-hide gelatin, brown sugar, jujube, glutinous rice, old chicken, ginger, and black plum have extraordinary effects in astringing, stopping bleeding, and replenishing qi and blood after painless abortion surgery.
