Patient's question:
I am very scared when this happens. I often have lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. Could you please tell me how long after a cesarean section can I eat and drink?Doctor's answer:
Within 6 hours after a cesarean section, you cannot drink or eat anything. After 6 hours, you can have some porridge-like foods. Try to maintain a light diet, avoid sour, spicy, and greasy foods, and drink plenty of water.Generally, doctors will advise women with postpartum consultation risks to maintain personal hygiene and avoid sexual activity. Additionally, patients should also pay attention to having a comfortable environment, which is beneficial for rest. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
