Patient's question:
11 days postpartum, taking the baby to the hospital for foot blood test, besides getting the out-of-province certificate, I got blown by the wind, and after coming back, my waist became extremely painful, unable to even turn over in bed. Walking also caused severe pain in my waist and hip, with the pain radiating down my entire thigh. What could be the reason? Now the baby is two months old, and I still have that doesn't subside, making walking painful. My finger joints also hurt. What kind of tests should I undergo? What is actually wrong with me? It's very exhausting to even turn over in bed.Doctor's answer:
The situation mentioned by the patient is very confirmed. This is a clinical diagnosis reflection caused by abnormal hormone excretion levels during the postpartum period. This is due to the relaxation of joint ligaments during childbirth, and at this time, the situation has not fully recovered, making it very easy to cause ligament injuries. The patient needs to actively engage in postpartum rehabilitation exercises. For localized treatment, acupuncture can be used to address the issue, and the effect is very ideal. It is not necessary for the patient to be afraid of wind exposure, as this is not scientific. Regarding my suggestion, the patient must help me reject it. This is also very important to me. Thank you.
