What should I do if I have inflammation after giving birth to a second child?

Patient's question:

A routine vaginal discharge test was done 44 days after a Caesarean section for a second child. The doctor said there was inflammation. Is it serious? They prescribed medication. Will it affect the baby's breastfeeding?

Doctor's answer:

Your symptoms are not severe; it's just a bit of mild inflammation, and the issue isn't very serious. The medication prescribed by the doctor is for regulating the vaginal environment and is very suitable for your symptoms. You should continue taking the medication for a few days, and then use it for another week after your period ends.
In addition, during the treatment for a cesarean section, it is equally important for the patient to focus on their diet and mental state, in addition to immediate medical care. The patient must maintain a light diet and keep a consistently cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference with the full recovery from the cesarean section.
