Patient's question:
I'll have one week left until my due date. I've heard that it's quite important for women to take postpartum care, otherwise they might develop health issues later on. Some people say the postpartum period needs to be 30 days, while others say it should be 42 days. I'm quite confused and would like to consult.What kind of help I need: How long is the postpartum period generally?
Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: During the postpartum period, it is important to pay attention to the same nourishment. You should consume nutrient-rich and easily digestible foods such as eggs, milk, pork ribs, chicken, and fish. Avoid washing your hair or taking showers with cold water, as cold stimulation may trigger arthritis. Otherwise, it can leave behind joint and muscle pain in the affected cold areas.
