Patient's question:
After the lochia from a cesarean section is clean, the scar is pressed by the pants of the skin garment. It seems like the lochia has returned again, and is it okay if the amount is a little? How long does it usually last? Does it have any impact?Doctor's answer:
Postpartum lochia generally lasts for about 3 weeks, with the color gradually changing from red to yellow to white and the amount gradually increasing. If it lasts less than 3 weeks, it may be necessary to consider poor uterine contraction, uterine infection, etc. Additionally, it should be considered whether it is the complete recovery of menstruation. In your case, it is best to go to the hospital promptly for examination and treatment.For patients, if the cesarean section condition is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication should be administered. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of cesarean section. In addition, patients also need to pay attention to their diet and psychological care. I hope the answers to the above questions can help everyone.
