When is it appropriate to use a belly band after childbirth?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

One month, if the abdominal incision heals quickly, you can take a shower two weeks after; but the shower time should not be too long, the water temperature should not be too low, and maintain body temperature. The air in the bathroom should be well-ventilated; also, you can only take a shower, not a tub bath. After showering, you should dry the water immediately, dress properly before coming out, and it is best to cover your hair with a dry towel to avoid catching a cold from the wind.
