Treatment and health care of postpartum pubic separation

Many women experience pubic separation and pubic pain after giving birth. This is a very painful experience for them, and sometimes it takes a long time to recover. So naturally women need to understand how to effectively relieve this pain. As long as they do a good job of care and maintenance, they can recover as soon as possible.

The pelvis is a round bone that meets at the front center from both sides, and this front center part is called the pubic bone. The pubic bone is composed of two bones with a gap in the middle instead of being close together. The two bones are connected by fibrous cartilage tissue composed of several ligaments. This area is called the pubic symphysis. After a woman becomes pregnant, the pelvis is stretched, causing the pubic symphysis to separate, which leads to pubic pain.

Effects of pubic pain:

The pain can extend to the femoral trochanters on both sides, making it impossible for the hip joint to adduct and abduct, or causing pain in the lower limbs.

Some pregnant mothers even find it difficult to get up from the bed or turn over in bed. Many movements that were very easy to do before have become very difficult to complete.

It can cause sciatic pain, a "clicking" sound in the pelvis when walking, and a painful, unsteady gait.

Ways to relieve pubic pain:

Place a pillow between your legs when you sleep. Swimming helps relieve stress on joints. Stand with your legs symmetrically, avoid sitting astride, and try to dress while sitting. Place ice packs on the pubic area and use a pelvic belt. Place a lumbar pillow behind your back when sitting. Get a lower back massage. Avoid lifting heavy objects.

If the pain is particularly severe, seek medical attention immediately. During delivery, the doctor should be informed of the condition in a timely manner and delivery should be carried out according to the doctor's instructions.

The above is an introduction to the pain of pubic separation after childbirth. If you understand this common sense scientifically, then postpartum mothers should pay attention to various physical health care to restore health, effectively avoid and relieve various pain problems, and reduce adverse effects.
