Patient's question:
Hello, I would like to ask if it's common to walk frequently during the postpartum period and not do any heavy labor, and now I've been 40 days postpartum. I always feel lower back and back pain, and I always feel cold (in the bones). I don't know what methods can help me recover?Doctor's answer:
The clinical manifestations of postpartum illness are: fear of cold, fear of wind, sweating, joint pain. The pain worsens when exposed to cold, wind, or rainy weather. Postpartum illness caused by emotional depression may also be accompanied by symptoms such as numbness, convulsions, and distending pain. Postpartum illness caused by sexual activity during the postpartum period may also be accompanied by symptoms such as weakness in the limbs, lower back pain, and drowsiness. Postpartum illness caused by anger may also be accompanied by symptoms such as pain in small and large joints, and headache. It is recommended to seek treatment from a local traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for better results.
