Pictures of spinal injections for cesarean section

Caesarean section is a surgical treatment that will cause certain trauma, so anesthesia is required before the operation, and spinal anesthesia is also a common anesthesia method at this stage. However, many female friends worry that spinal anesthesia will cause some complications before the operation. In general, the safety factor of spinal anesthesia for caesarean section is still very high, and the probability of complications is very small. Only a small number of women will have the following minor symptoms in the future:

1. After cesarean section anesthesia, some women will feel memory loss or lack of clarity and concentration. This is mainly because the anesthetic effect has not been completely metabolized and excreted from the body. In other words, this symptom is temporary and usually recovers not long after the operation. If women feel that their memory is not as good as before after cesarean section anesthesia, it is mostly due to psychological factors or excessive fatigue and poor sleep after giving birth, and there is no need to worry too much.

2. There are also a small number of women who feel soreness, discomfort and other symptoms at the injection site after cesarean section spinal anesthesia. We all know that the needle for injecting anesthetics also has a certain diameter, so minor damage will occur after injecting anesthetics at the spinal site for cesarean section. It may also be caused by a small range of neurotoxic side effects caused by the anesthetic, but this type of complication will not last for a long time. Generally speaking, with more rest after the operation, it can heal itself after about 3 months and does not require special treatment.

3. If women choose local anesthesia during cesarean section, they may experience severe headache, dizziness, dry throat, nausea, vomiting, itching all over the body and other symptoms. However, the side effects of this injection usually disappear gradually within 24-8 hours after the pregnant woman gives birth.

Finally, I would like to remind everyone that some women may have to undergo general anesthesia during cesarean section. If general anesthesia is performed during pregnancy due to weight gain or edema, the incidence of problems such as difficult catheterization and aspiration will increase, and these problems will affect the ventilation function. Therefore, before surgery, you must pay attention to choosing a reliable and professional hospital to better ensure a successful delivery.
