Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: On the eighth day after a miscarriage, I felt a chill on my forehead, and then applied heat. I'm wondering if, as the elderly say, it might leave sequelae and cause headaches in the future?Current general condition: Feeling discomfort above the forehead.
Doctor's answer:
Hello: The problem will not be too big, and attention should be paid after the flow of people:1. Maintain a regular lifestyle: Even if the miscarriage surgery is very successful, if the postoperative life is not regular, it may worsen bleeding or leave sequelae. You can rest in the hospital for one day after the surgery or go home. In the following days, you still need to go to the hospital for observation and treatment, and ensure adequate rest.
2. Clothing should be kept loose and avoid tight-fitting clothes.
3. During this period, do not drink alcohol, and do not take a bath without the doctor's permission, as bathing may sometimes cause infection.
4. Sexual activity can only be resumed after bleeding has completely stopped 10 days to 2 weeks after the surgery.
5. To ensure the health of the mother, do not get pregnant immediately after the surgery, as the uterus is damaged during the procedure, and pregnancy at this time is very dangerous. Safe contraceptive measures must be taken for this reason.
6. If using medication for abortion, you must undergo medical observation to check if the medication is effective and whether the abortion is complete.
7. Starting from the second day after the surgery, avoid overexertion and excessive exercise.
