Patient's question:
55-year-old woman knows she has discomfort in her body, so she hasn't used it to see a doctor. Please ask: Can women not take a bath after giving birth?Doctor's answer:
This is a misconception. This should actually be adjusted because whether you are postpartum and sitting the month-old confinement, you should keep warm, and your body's skin metabolites, including sweat. From the perspective of skin hygiene, you should also bathe frequently, let alone the external genitalia. Besides bloody discharge, you should take short showers, and showering must be kept clean, which is still necessary. Try to avoid using various soaps, as plain water is sufficient. Do not have any psychological pressure and maintain a pleasant mood. During this period, pay attention to getting more rest, and also maintain a light diet, avoiding greasy and spicy foods, which is beneficial for both you and the fetus in your womb.
