Patient's question:
10.12 Cesarean section, after the lochia increased yesterday, it has now decreased again, but I always feel occasional contractions and pain. Is it normal? Will the contractions be this long?Doctor's answer:
On October 12th, I had a cesarean section, and it has been over 20 days now. There is a very small amount of broken skin in the vagina, which might be due to poor uterine involution or poor healing at the site of placental adhesion. It is unlikely to have residual tissue in the uterine cavity. I recommend you go to the hospital for a follow-up transvaginal ultrasound to check the condition of uterine involution. If there are no abnormalities, you can use many anti-inflammatory and uterine contracting medications. It is strictly prohibited to have sexual intercourse for 2 months.Additionally, during the recovery period after a cesarean section, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. The patient must pay close attention to their diet and eat more light foods to avoid unnecessary harm. I hope the above answer can assist you. Thank you.
