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 what's wrong with the swelling and pain in my calves after childbirth?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it may be a case of lumbar disc herniation, which can cause symptoms such as lower back and leg pain, numbness, etc. It can be diagnosed through a lumbar CT scan. After confirmation, it is important to rest and choose a hard wooden bed for lying down. It is advisable to adopt conservative treatments such as physical therapy, acupuncture, and traction as much as possible. If the condition severely affects walking and other functions, minimally invasive surgery can be considered.Generally, doctors will advise women with postpartum consultation risks to maintain personal hygiene and avoid sexual activity. Additionally, patients should create an environment that promotes emotional stability and stress relief. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
