How to treat constipation after a cesarean section?

Patient's question:

Just had a cesarean section surgery, now can't have a bowel movement, seeking help

Doctor's answer:

Guidance: It is recommended that you include an adequate amount of fiber in your daily diet. Consume a certain quantity of vegetables and fruits every day, eating one apple on an empty stomach in the morning or evening, or one to three bananas before each meal. Avoid overly refined staple foods and incorporate some coarse grains into your diet. In the morning, drink a cup of light salt water or honey water on an empty stomach, combined with abdominal massage or waist rotation exercises, to help the water move and enhance bowel movement. Engage in appropriate physical exercise. You can also try using Niuhuang Qingwei pills or Detox and Beauty capsules for regulation.
When patients face the challenges of a cesarean section, we should actively implement thorough examinations and treatments without avoiding medical visits. If the condition persists without improvement, it is essential to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
