Childbirth is a great trauma for women. The body is extremely weak after childbirth, and many discomforts cannot even be described in words. Pain is inevitable. Some mothers experience back pain and hip pain, while others experience eye pain, headache, toothache, hand pain and other symptoms. It can be said that postpartum pain can be found in any part of the body, including pain in the thigh. Causes of postpartum thigh pain Postpartum leg pain is often caused by postpartum rheumatism, which is usually caused by "dampness obstruction". The cause is that during the postpartum period (confinement period), the body's blood vessels are empty and the circulation of qi and blood is not smooth. Furthermore, when the body is tired and exhausted (confinement period), the lumbar tendons are invaded by wind, cold and dampness, causing cold and dampness to stagnate in the lumbar spine and form lesions, blocking the meridians, resulting in poor blood circulation, causing muscle and nerve spasms, causing soreness and pain in the legs, thus inducing leg pain. Sitting or lying down will cause blood circulation obstruction. You can move around appropriately and keep warm. You can use a hot water bottle or apply some external patches to warm the tendons and veins, promote blood circulation and remove dampness. Reasons for postpartum thigh pain Postpartum thigh pain may also be caused by excessive fatigue, long-term bending over to hold a child, etc., which may lead to lumbar disc herniation. It is recommended to pay attention to rest, avoid fatigue, do not bend over to hold the child for a long time, keep warm, avoid cold and moisture, and give hot compress physical therapy. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for a clear diagnosis and targeted treatment. Reasons for postpartum thigh pain The possibility that the symptoms are caused by cold or postpartum calcium deficiency cannot be ruled out. It is recommended that you pay attention to rest, apply hot compresses, supplement calcium in time, and undergo a detailed examination if necessary. Postpartum thigh muscle pain is probably caused by strain during delivery, and it will generally recover with time. Four reasons for postpartum thigh pain This may be caused by lack of rest after delivery, cold or inflammation. You can rest well now and eat more nutritious food. If you have not recovered after a full month, you need to go to the hospital for examination. |
