Is it true that postpartum sickness and confinement care are necessary?

There is some truth in treating postpartum diseases during the confinement period, but we need to pay attention to this question: why do we have to treat postpartum diseases during the confinement period? In fact, it is entirely possible to treat postpartum diseases in your life, and you don’t necessarily have to postpone recuperation until the next pregnancy. In addition, it should be noted that some people's postpartum diseases must be actively treated, and through certain conditioning, postpartum diseases can be improved and there is a possibility of recovery.

If you are found to have serious postpartum illness during the confinement period, in addition to symptomatic treatment, it is best to stay in confinement for a while until you are basically recovered. If you find that you have symptoms such as back pain, dizziness, headache, joint pain, chills, etc. after the confinement period, and these symptoms do not improve over time, it means that you have developed postpartum sickness. Please seize the time and seek treatment as soon as possible. In theory, the earlier the treatment, the easier it is to recover.

According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, nine out of ten meridians of postpartum women are deficient, and confinement is the best opportunity for a woman to improve her physical condition in her life. If you take good care of yourself during the confinement period, your bad physical condition will get better. If you take bad care of yourself during the confinement period, your good physical condition will get worse. If you don’t take good care of yourself during the confinement period, it will pose a hidden danger to your future health. Don’t think the elderly tell you what to pay attention to during confinement after childbirth because they are too long-winded. You can’t believe them all, but you can also believe them all. Many of them are reasonable. The key is to have a scientific confinement period.

Note: Pregnant women should not wear slippers, short-sleeved clothes or short skirts during the confinement period. They should wear a hat when going out in spring, autumn and winter. After sweating, they must wait indoors to dry before going out. They should not use cold water to wash their face, hands, feet or take a bath (including in summer). Pregnant women should eat in moderation during the confinement period, avoid overeating or starving, and avoid eating raw, cold, or spicy food. They should not eat too much food other than grains at one time, and should not go on a diet for fear of obesity.

Through the above introduction, friends have a certain understanding of the concept of postpartum illness and postpartum care. It should be noted here that although the so-called postpartum illness and postpartum care have their reasons, if we are sick, it is more important to actively treat and strive for early recovery. Never postpone the illness, as this may make the condition worse and be detrimental to your health.
