Prevent hand joint pain
After delivery, the hormones in pregnant women will change, which will lead to the decrease of the tension of the joint capsule and its adjacent ligaments, thus causing joint relaxation. At this time, if you do too much housework, or hold your baby too much and touch cold water, it will overload your joints, tendons and ligaments, causing joint pain in your hands for a long time. Puerperal women should pay attention to rest, do not do too much housework, reduce the burden on fingers and wrists, hold children less, and avoid premature contact with cold water.
Attention should be paid to reproductive organ infection
The puerperal women have poor disease resistance, the wounds caused by vaginal and intrauterine delivery have not healed, and bacteria can easily invade the blood. After delivery, the vaginal opening has different degrees of congestion and edema, which is easy to cause laceration. Therefore, puerperal women should pay attention to vulva hygiene and often scrub with warm water. However, due to indoor vulvitis, vaginitis, endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, uterine bleeding and laceration of vulva, sepsis and hemorrhagic shock can be caused in severe cases, which is life-threatening. Therefore, it is forbidden to share the same room during the puerperium, and sexual intercourse should be avoided from 3 months before delivery to 2 months after delivery. Always keep the whole body clean, especially the lower body, strengthen nutrition before delivery, have a good rest and increase resistance.
Prevention of mastitis
In addition to postpartum resistance decline, the first is milk deposition, because the deposited milk is most suitable for the growth and reproduction of bacteria; Secondly, because the skin of nipple and areola is thin, it is easy to cause nipple injury and bacterial infection.
From early pregnancy to lactation, we should pay attention to scrubbing nipples and breasts with clean wet towels, keep them clean and hygienic, and enhance the resistance of local skin, so as to prevent bacteria from entering the breast from cracks and causing infection. Keep the nipple clean during breastfeeding to avoid injury and reduce the route of infection. Empty the milk every time you feed. If the baby can't finish sucking, you can use a breast pump to suck it empty. Don't let milk accumulate in the breast to reduce the chances of bacterial reproduction.
Prevention of cystitis
Postpartum bladder muscles are still relatively loose for the time being. It is easy to accumulate urine, and the water accumulated in the body in the third trimester is mainly excreted through the kidney after delivery, which increases the burden on the bladder and reduces the disease prevention ability of the bladder. At this time, bacteria easily invade the urethra, causing cystitis. Maternal women should remember to urinate more after delivery, do not store urine in the bladder for too long to avoid bacterial reproduction, and often clean the vulva, keep it clean, and prevent dirty water from flowing into the vagina.
Prevent uterine prolapse
When the uterus has not recovered, if you do heavy work too early, it will cause uterine prolapse. After the illness, you will feel the lower abdomen falling, backache, and in severe cases, the uterus will come out of the vagina. Maternal women should stay in bed and have more rest. Don't get up too early, don't take part in heavy physical labor too early, and don't walk or run long distances.
Prevent anal fissure
The main reason why lying-in women are prone to anal fissure is diet. High-quality diet is easy to cause constipation. Some pregnant women still eat hot food such as mutton and ginger soup, but they don't eat fruits and vegetables or seldom eat them. In addition, the lying-in woman is in bed with little activity, which slows down the intestinal peristalsis, the stool stays in the intestine for too long, the water is absorbed and too dry, it is difficult to defecate, anal fissure occurs, and anal pain and even bleeding occur during defecation.
During this period, it is necessary to change the diet structure, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits to increase the amount of stool, eat more fish soup and pettitoes soup to lubricate the intestines and replenish enough water.
Prevention of myorheumatism
The main symptoms are cold waist and shoulders, tight and stiff muscles, acid swelling and discomfort, which is more serious in rainy days. Because this disease seriously affects women's physical and mental health, it should be actively prevented and treated.
The first is to prevent wind and evil. Postpartum due to bleeding and physical exhaustion, the body's disease resistance decreased. If you don't pay attention to cold protection, the wind of deficiency and evil will easily take advantage of it and cause muscle rheumatism. Therefore, after giving birth, women should pay attention to the changes of climate in the four seasons to avoid evil spirits and prevent thieves.
The second is to pay attention to increasing nutrition. There is more bleeding during childbirth, greater physical exertion and decreased resistance. It is extremely necessary to increase fat, protein food and fresh vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins.
Then do infrared radiation or ultrashort wave treatment. You can also put the salt in the pot and fry it according to the size of the painful part, wrap it with cloth and apply it to the painful part once a day for 20 ~ 30 minutes each time. In addition, electroacupuncture is also effective.
Prevention of neck and back pain
After breast-feeding, pregnant women often feel some pain in their neck and back. With the extension of breastfeeding time, the symptoms become more and more obvious, which is called nursing neck and back pain.
First of all, it is caused by poor maternal posture. Generally, pregnant women like to look down at their children when breastfeeding. Because it takes a long time to breastfeed each time, several times a day, it is easy to make the muscles of the neck and back tense and tired, resulting in pain and discomfort. In addition, in order to take good care of children at night, or to facilitate breastfeeding, I am used to sleeping in a fixed posture, resulting in cervical scoliosis, causing unilateral neck and back muscle tension and neck and back pain.
Secondly, the influence of female physiological factors and occupation. Because the tension of women's neck muscles and ligaments is weaker than that of men, especially those women who work at their desks for a long time before delivery (accounting, typing, editing, sewing), if they are usually undernourished, have a bad rest and have poor physical fitness, they are more likely to cause pain or soreness during breastfeeding.
There are also the effects of their own diseases. Some pregnant women are often unstable when sucking milk because their nipples are invaginated, forcing them to bow their heads and adjust their baby's head at any time. In addition, breastfeeding for a long time is easy to strain the neck and back muscles and feel pain or discomfort. In addition, suffering from certain diseases, such as cervical hyperplasia, will also aggravate the degree of nerve compression, leading to neck and back pain, as well as shoulder, hip and finger pain and numbness, and even dizziness, palpitation, nausea, vomiting, limb weakness and other manifestations.
Therefore, pregnant women should correct bad posture and habits in time when breastfeeding, and avoid bowing their heads for a long time to breastfeed; In the process of feeding your child, you can intermittently raise your head and turn your neck left and right. Don't get used to breastfeeding while sleeping at night to reduce the tension and fatigue of the muscles and ligaments on the back of the neck. Pay attention to proper sports or activities at ordinary times. In addition, it is also necessary to prevent nipple invagination, cervical spondylosis and other diseases and eliminate incentives. In addition, pay attention to the warmth of the neck and back, and avoid electric fans blowing directly on the head and neck in summer. At the same time, nutrition should be strengthened, and self-massage can be carried out when necessary to improve blood circulation in the neck and back.
Prevent midsummer
In hot summer, some women close the doors and windows, sleep on the kang and cover themselves with quilts. In addition, the indoor temperature is very high, the air is not circulating, and the ventilation is not smooth, which leads to the accumulation of heat in the maternal body, and the body is weak, which can not dissipate heat well, leading to heatstroke. At the initial stage, the symptoms are fatigue, headache, thirst, chest tightness and nausea. In severe cases, people are delirious, manic or unconscious, and even convulse to death. To prevent heatstroke, pregnant women should drink more boiled water and don't cover too much; Change clothes frequently, or wipe your body with warm water to help dissipate heat in your body; Keep the air fresh indoors, but avoid the "tuyere". When the indoor temperature is high, sprinkle water on the ground to cool down.
