Patient's question:
I am a teacher, and my maternity leave is quite short, so I want to try to have a natural birth to recover quickly. However, the doctor suggested a cesarean section because the umbilical cord is wrapped around the neck. I would like to ask how long it takes for the wound to fully heal after a cesarean section, and how long it will take to return to work?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, it is inferred. If the fetal umbilical cord is wrapped around the neck twice, it is best to choose cesarean section to terminate the early pregnancy to avoid the recurrence of fetal respiratory distress. If cesarean section is chosen, it is best to go back to work three months later. It is recommended to pay attention to preventing colds and eating less spicy and irritating food. Do not stand for a long time or sit for too long, and also avoid heavy physical labor to prevent interfering with the complete healing of the cesarean incision. In addition to immediate treatment, patients undergoing cesarean section also need to pay attention to maintaining deep sleep in daily life. Sufficient deep sleep can help you recover quickly from this illness.
