Patient's question:
I am mainly close to giving birth now. Because the baby is a bit large, I cannot have a natural birth, and I need a cesarean section. We have scheduled it for next week. I heard from others that you can use a girdle after giving birth, and it helps you lose weight quickly. May I ask if it is okay to use a girdle after a cesarean section?Doctor's answer:
Four days after a cesarean section, you can start using an abdominal binder. It is used by mothers who have undergone a cesarean section to protect the wound in the early postpartum period. People with back strain, lower back pain, and soreness can use it for defense and relief. However, be careful not to make it too tight, as this may make it difficult to breathe. In addition, during the treatment for a cesarean section, in addition to taking medication, the patient's dietary condition and mental state are also particularly important. Patients must avoid excessive tension and worry to prevent unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery from a cesarean section.
