Patient's question:
Because it was a cesarean section, there is a wound on my abdomen, which has been painful for many days. Walking, taking naps, and even laughing loudly can all trigger pain in the wound. I have been lying in bed, afraid to move my body, not knowing when I can get up or when I can get wet. How should I take care of myself after a cesarean section?Doctor's answer:
After surgery, proper nursing training should be provided. Due to the weakened immunity of postpartum women after cesarean section, neglecting health can easily lead to infections. Wound infection will definitely affect the complete recovery of the wound and the outcome after recovery. The most common issue is the recurrence of scars after infection and inflammation. Therefore, in addition to routine cleaning, perineal pads should be changed promptly, and hygiene products should be frequently sterilized and replaced. Do not soak in baths before wound healing, and do not remove the scab formed at the wound too early. In addition to active treatment, cesarean section patients need to pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life. A positive mood is very helpful for recovery. I hope the above information can help you. Thank you!
