Patient's question:
Why can't I move my upper body and my feet have no strength after 6 days of a C-section? What's going on?Doctor's answer:
Cesarean section can easily deplete the body's vital energy, and prolonged bed rest can also lead to qi deficiency. Qi is active; when qi is deficient, the body feels weak. Qi deficiency can cause blood stasis, which obstructs meridians, leading to poor nourishment of muscles and tendons, resulting in inability to move the upper body. It is recommended to regulate with traditional Chinese medicine, using formulas to promote blood circulation, resolve stagnation, replenish qi, and nourish the body, as well as to unblock meridians. In addition to taking medication to treat the cesarean section, patients should also pay attention to nursing care, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in outdoor activities. At the same time, patients should also be mindful of choosing a reputable hospital for treatment to achieve good therapeutic effects.
