Patient's question:
I am 39 weeks pregnant. Lying on my left side to take a nap at night sometimes causes stomach pain, and my right hand feels numb.Doctor's answer:
Generally, this is not a major issue. It's almost time for the due date, so it's best to have a natural birth. Babies born naturally tend to be healthier in various aspects compared to those born via C-section. Additionally, after a C-section, mothers have a longer recovery period, and studies have shown that women who have C-sections tend to appear older than those who give birth naturally. The condition after a C-section is quite serious, and it's recommended that the patient seek immediate treatment. It is hoped that the patient can follow the doctor's advice for appropriate treatment. At the same time, pay attention to dietary issues and avoid spicy and irritating foods to prevent worsening the condition. The above answer is hoped to assist you. Thank you.
