Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How long after giving birth can I take a bath with water?Doctor's answer:
Hello, you can take a bath postpartum, but in summer, it is recommended to wait for 3 days after delivery, and in winter, it is advisable to wait for 1 week. Additionally, the frequency of bathing should not be too high, especially for those who are physically weak. The water temperature for bathing should be warm to avoid catching a cold. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects the patient's life but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a vaginal examination. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Additionally, pay close attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness of the perineal skin.
