When is it appropriate to use a postpartum abdominal binder?

Patient's question:

It's very frightening when this happens. I often experience lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. When should I bind a postpartum abdominal band?

Doctor's answer:

It's best to hold for a few weeks before releasing. Weight loss can be approached from two aspects. First, you can increase physical activity, especially leg exercises, and persist in exercising. Second, adjust your diet structure, eat more light foods, and reduce the intake of greasy foods. It will gradually improve. Hello, the condition you described is likely mastitis, which is usually caused by Staphylococcus aureus infection. Local application of magnesium sulfate can be used on the breast, while milk should be expressed. If there is an abscess, incision and drainage may be necessary.
