What to do if you can't urinate after a normal birth

We all know that it is very easy for women to have difficulty urinating and defecating after giving birth naturally, so some doctors will tell women that they must try their best to complete the first time, so that everything will go smoothly in the future. Because after the fetus is delivered vaginally, the fetus is too large and will squeeze the mother's urethra, which can easily cause urethral injury. So what should you do if you can't urinate after giving birth naturally?

Unable to urinate on your own 8 hours after delivery. During the delivery process, when the fetal head passes through the birth canal, it will squeeze the mother's urethra and change its angle, making the first urination after delivery difficult. In addition, the bladder is under pressure and becomes congested and edematous during delivery, muscle tension is reduced, and there is pain in the perineum wound after delivery. As a result, many women will experience symptoms of urinary retention after giving birth. Once a mother experiences difficulty urinating, she should first relax and tell herself that this is a common symptom after childbirth. Then she can seek some external help to help her urinate smoothly. For example, gently pressing the bladder, fumigating the vulva with warm water, placing a hot towel on the lower abdomen, or turning on the faucet and stimulating it with the sound of running water. These methods can stimulate the contraction of the bladder muscles to a certain extent and prompt urination as soon as possible. If the effect is still not obvious, you have to use a suppository or get an injection. If these methods still don't work, a catheter may be used.

This is normal. Don't worry, the hospital will give you a suppository. Just be patient, get some rest, drink some brown sugar water, and don't play with your mobile phone or computer, which will affect your health.

The presence of blood in urine 14 days after a normal delivery is probably related to getting a sore throat, but it’s nothing serious. It is recommended that you drink more boiled water, rest more, avoid spicy and irritating foods, pay attention to the hygiene of the vulva, and wash the vulva with warm water every day.

There are many reasons for low back pain, which may be caused by lumbar disc herniation, strain, spinal stenosis, kidney deficiency, waist injury, etc.

Suggestions: This requires your specific examination. You can use a hot water bottle or electric heating pad to apply heat to the painful area every night; you can also perform local massage to relieve the spasm and fatigue of the lumbar muscles.
