Patient's question:
Yesterday I had an abortion without anesthesia. I don't know what I need to pay attention to. How can I face wash with cold water in this month? I have a one-year-old child at home, about 21 pounds. Sometimes he needs to be held. I don't know how to hold him.Doctor's answer:
After a miscarriage, due to the increased body resistance, personal hygiene should be paid more attention. Since the endometrium leaves behind wounds, vaginal discharge is more abundant, making it easier for bacteria to gain a foothold. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the cleanliness of the external genitalia.Recommendations: Rest for two weeks after the procedure, avoid sexual activity and tub baths for one month; enhance nutrition, and avoid spicy, irritating, and cold foods. Patients should return to the hospital for a follow-up check-up within one to two weeks.
