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 it takes for lochia to stop after childbirth?Doctor's answer:
Hello, considering the residual, an ultrasound examination can help with diagnosis. If residual is found and it is small in size, it can be treated with Motherwort ointment and anti-inflammatory drugs. For larger residues, medication may not be effective, and a D&C procedure can be considered. Post-surgery, it is important to maintain good hygiene in the perineal area. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. Generally, doctors recommend that women with postpartum consultation risks pay attention to keeping warm and avoid coldness. Additionally, patients should also ensure a comfortable environment, which is conducive to rest. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
