Patient's question:
I've been having a Caesarean section for six days now. Lying in bed, I can only lie flat. Whether I sleep on my left side or my right side, it doesn't work. Even a slight turn makes my lower abdomen hurt so intensely, like a muscle being pulled tight, unbearable. The upper abdomen also aches along with it. All in all, the feeling makes my heart ache deeply.Doctor's answer:
The situation you mentioned should be due to the pulling pain of the wound. However, six days after a cesarean section, it is important to actively exercise to increase the chance of adhesion of abdominal viscera. It is recommended that you follow your doctor's advice and engage in appropriate exercises, including jumping, sitting, and getting off the bed. However, it is important to prevent excessive pulling at the incision site. If the pain at the abdominal incision is too severe, you may consider using an abdominal bandage to reduce the degree of pulling pain. There are many treatment methods for cesarean sections, but since the symptoms of patients vary, the treatment methods used are also different. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to be diagnosed as soon as possible so that they can be treated accordingly.
