1. Western medicine treatment of postpartum wind

Generally, if postpartum wind is not treated properly, most of them will turn into serious rheumatism or rheumatoid arthritis in the late stage. Rheumatism is caused by wind evil entering from the outside to the inside, penetrating the bone surface, causing blood circulation obstruction, leading to bone and muscle malnutrition, joint deformation, muscle atrophy, and dryness and necrosis of active joints. The internal circulation is not smooth, resulting in the accumulation of rheumatic metabolites in the joint cavity or between the skin and cannot be discharged, causing swelling or edema all over the body, fluid accumulation in the active joint cavity, metabolic disorders, and some patients develop rheumatoid arthritis. Long-term rheumatism invades the human body, occupies the body, affects blood circulation, causes the organs and blood vessels in the body to lose nutrition and deform, and some body muscle tissue atrophies. In severe cases, it directly invades the internal organs, causing internal organ diseases, leading to organ dysfunction, weak circulation of qi and blood, insufficient supply of the limbs, dry tendons and bones, and forming severe rheumatoid arthritis. One of the main reasons why postpartum wind is difficult to treat is that wind entering the kidneys can lead to decreased renal function.

2. Causes of postpartum wind

After delivery, the mother's cervix, vagina and vulva may suffer varying degrees of damage, especially the placenta attachment site in the uterine cavity, which will inevitably leave a large wound, providing a pathway for pathogens to enter. In addition, due to certain abnormal pregnancy and delivery conditions, such as anemia, premature rupture of membranes, postpartum hemorrhage, etc., the body's resistance is reduced, creating good conditions for the growth and reproduction of pathogenic bacteria. Postpartum infection is very likely to occur in the following situations: vaginitis in the late pregnancy, taking a bath or having sexual intercourse shortly before delivery, the midwife's lack of awareness of aseptic operation, too many vaginal examinations, unclean items used by the mother, especially the perineal pad, and close contact with people with respiratory inflammation.
