What should I do if I feel pain all over my body after giving birth?

After giving birth, the mother is very weak. Any symptoms of fatigue at this time will cause body aches. Mothers often feel uncomfortable all over, with back pain, joint pain, etc. If you don't pay attention to treating these pains, the disease will always be with you. However, if you can pay more attention to it in daily life, and pay more attention to conditioning after body aches occur, the symptoms will be alleviated.

Precautions

1. If a new mother experiences body aches or joint pains after giving birth, she needs to rest in bed, avoid walking around casually, and ensure she has a good sleep.

2. New mothers should not get out of bed for too long or exercise too vigorously every day to avoid aggravating the pain.

3. The air in the bedroom of a new mother should be circulated after giving birth, but do not let the wind blow directly to avoid catching a cold and making the condition worse.

4. New mothers should also pay attention to keeping warm. Never sleep on a cool mat in summer. The temperature should not be too low when using air conditioning, and it is best not to install the air conditioner directly facing the bed.

Relief of postpartum body aches

1. Leg muscle exercise

Lie flat on your back, lift your right leg as high as possible, straighten your toes without bending them, then slowly lower your leg. This exercise is done entirely with the strength of your abdomen, so don't use force with your hands.

2. Vaginal contraction exercise

Lie flat on the bed with your legs slightly open, pull your heels back, lift your hips off the ground, keep your knees together, and tighten your abdominal muscles.

3. Knee-Chest Pose

Lie face down on the bed with your knees slightly bent, hips raised, chest lightly pressed against the bed, legs open to shoulder width, and maintain this position for about 3 minutes.

4. Sit-ups

Without a pillow, lie on your back on the bed, place your hands on your chest, and lift your head and shoulders up just above the bed.

Now that we understand the causes, precautions, and ways to relieve body aches for mothers, as well as the areas that require attention, mothers must pay attention to them after delivery to avoid adverse factors that lead to body aches after delivery and reduce the occurrence of pain. Even if you feel soreness, it doesn’t matter. Proper exercise will relieve the pain.
