Patient's question:
What are the precautions for cesarean section?Doctor's answer:
After a cesarean section, do not stay in bed for too long. You should get up and walk around. Exercise can promote blood circulation, speed up wound healing, enhance gastrointestinal motility, and help with early bowel movement. It can also prevent intestinal adhesion and thrombosis, which may lead to embolism in other parts. The time spent lying in bed each day should not exceed 12 hours. Now, pay attention to the condition of the abdominal incision and avoid fatigue and heavy physical labor to prevent the incision from opening. You should go to the hospital for a check-up 6-8 weeks after delivery to monitor the recovery of the uterus.
