Patient's question:
I just had a C-section, and my best friend told me that I shouldn't laugh. I wanted to ask if laughing after a C-section can bother the incision?Doctor's answer:
If you have just undergone a cesarean section, it is best not to laugh, as this action can increase abdominal pressure. If the abdominal pressure is too high, it may lead to the wound opening. After a cesarean section, it is important to rest and avoid strenuous exercise. You should also avoid activities that increase abdominal pressure. Regular movement on your feet helps promote intestinal movement and aids in the complete recovery of the wound. Cesarean section patients can use dietary therapy as a complement to medical treatment while understanding the principle of treating the symptoms. In daily diet, it is crucial to avoid both excessive hunger and overeating, and never binge eat.
