Patient's question:
Why can't you use a pillow six hours after a C-section! What are the adverse effects if you do use a pillow?Doctor's answer:
Hello! There may be excessive blood loss during surgery. Not using a pillow after surgery is mainly to ensure blood supply to the head and prevent cerebral edema. Brain cells can face serious problems if they are short of oxygen for a short time. It is best not to use a pillow at all. If you really feel uncomfortable, you should try to keep it as low as possible.Cesarean section brings great harm to patients. Once you notice your symptoms, you should seek medical attention promptly. At the same time, pay more attention to self-care training, eat more vegetables and fruits, and avoid stimulating foods. We hope that cesarean section patients can receive professional treatment.
