Patient's question:
I had a baby six months ago, and it might be because I didn't rest well during the postpartum period. Since giving birth, my joints have been frequently aching, and sometimes I feel very sore and a bit numb. After a thorough examination, the doctor said this is postpartum wind. What are the treatments for postpartum wind?Doctor's answer:
It is quite important to sit well during the postpartum period. If you feel cold, wind, and dampness during the postpartum period, or if you stand for a long time or sit for long periods, it can easily lead to postpartum rheumatic disease, such as dizziness, headaches, limb numbness, stress incontinence, and damage to pelvic function, making it soft. If joint pain, soreness, and numbness reappear after childbirth, it is likely to be rheumatoid arthritis. Cold compress, hot compress, and microwave therapy can be used to stabilize the condition.
