What is postpartum disease

Generally speaking, most postpartum diseases are of a cold nature. For example, some female friends may suffer from irregular menstruation due to the confinement period, and some female friends may not take good care of themselves during the confinement period, which eventually leads to spleen and stomach deficiency or joint pain. For postpartum diseases, the earlier the treatment, the better the recovery will be. There are also many methods that have a certain preventive effect on postpartum diseases. Here we will introduce some knowledge related to postpartum diseases.

As the name suggests, postpartum disease is a disease that women suffer from after giving birth if they do not receive careful care. Women don’t care much about this disease at the beginning, but this does not mean that postpartum disease is not a serious disease. Women should learn about this disease in a timely manner. Postpartum disease refers to diseases caused by external or internal injuries suffered by pregnant women within one month after giving birth or miscarriage, and the symptoms remain if they are not cured during the confinement period. If you accidentally allow cold wind to invade at this time, or if you get very angry or sad, it may cause postpartum disease.

The main symptoms of postpartum disease include numbness, pain, soreness, fear of wind, cold, intolerance of fatigue, and difficulty in flexion and extension of muscles and joints throughout the body. In severe cases, every time the patient feels the cool breeze, they feel it penetrating into their bones. Even in the hot summer season, the patient must wrap the affected area with a thick quilt or cotton-padded clothes to feel comfortable. The characteristic symptoms are cold sweating, worsening symptoms after exposure to wind or cold, but the affected joints and muscles do not have typical inflammatory manifestations such as redness and swelling. Other phenotypes include physical fatigue, irritability, insomnia and nightmares. Some patients also have symptoms such as headache, dizziness, orbital pain, dry or tearful eyes, blurred vision, and weakness.

It should also be noted that pregnancy is a very hard thing for women, and childbirth is a great test for the body. Women's bodies are in a weak state after childbirth, and immediately after childbirth, they will face the breastfeeding stage, which may lead to a large loss of calcium in the body. If calcium is not supplemented in time, the body may suffer from back pain and leg pain due to calcium deficiency. This is why some female friends suffer from back pain due to postpartum disease.
