Patient's question:
Doctor: Yesterday, I asked you about the recovery after an abortion. I have been exposed to cold water quite a lot recently, and now my body is reacting more noticeably. It's just that my fingers are a bit painful, and I also feel a bit of pain in my arms. I'm only 21 this year, and I'm very nervous. The psychological stress is very high. Because my physical condition is already poor, I'm very nervous. I hope the doctor can explain it to me.What kind of help I expect: I hope the doctor can explain to me how to alleviate my physical and mental condition. Thank you.
Doctor's answer:
Now the physical reactions are quite noticeable, specifically a bit of pain in the fingers and a sense of discomfort in the arms, which is caused by the condition of cold dampness invading the meridians leading to disharmony in qi and blood. It's important to relax your mind and not be overly anxious. The liver governs tendons, and liver qi stagnation can cause physical discomfort, not necessarily due to factors like an induced abortion. It's not that touching cold water immediately after an induced abortion will cause severe discomfort to your body. Under normal circumstances, it can lead to the invasion of cold dampness. Therefore, you need to understand this correctly and persist in taking the medication. Pay attention to rest, and it's as simple as having the doctor change the prescription.
