Precautions after cesarean section

There are many precautions to be taken after cesarean delivery, such as adjusting diet, wound care, prohibiting sexual intercourse, avoiding physical labor, and so on. 1. Adjusting diet: After cesarean section, fasting is required on the day of delivery, and normal diet can be resumed after defecation, and women after cesarean section can eat more protein and vitamin-rich food to promote recovery due to their weakened physique. 2. Wound care: It often takes about 5 to 7 days for the abdominal incision to heal after cesarean section, so pay attention to keep the incision clean and dry to avoid infection, and only after the cesarean section incision has completely healed can you take a bath and other activities. 3. Prohibition of sexual life: women should be prohibited from having sex for 42 days, until the endometrium, cervix, vagina and other reproductive organs have completely returned to normal, before having sex. 4. Avoid physical labor: heavy drudgery should be avoided for 3 months after cesarean section to avoid consequences such as uterine prolapse. If patients have abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding and other manifestations after cesarean section, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time, under the guidance of the doctor, improve the relevant examination, clarify the cause of the disease and treat the symptoms.
