Contraction pains generally refer to uterine contraction pains, which mostly appear 1-2 days after delivery and disappear naturally for 2-3 days. The contraction pains are most obvious within 3-5 days after delivery, and will start to decrease slowly after 5 days, with symptoms similar to menstrual cramps. The symptoms are similar to menstrual cramps. After delivery, contractions are produced in order to make the uterus return to its normal size, causing severe pain in the lower abdomen. At the same time, when the mother is breastfeeding after delivery, it will stimulate the breast to cause an increase in reflex contraction secretion, resulting in increased pain of uterine contractions and prolonged pain. As time goes by, the pain symptoms can gradually reduce and disappear. When a woman has painful postpartum contractions, she can relieve them by massaging her uterus appropriately or by diverting her attention, such as listening to music, taking a walk or chatting. If the feeling of postpartum pain is stronger or there are persistent pain symptoms that cannot be relieved, you should go to the hospital for examination in time, and you can apply painkillers, such as ibuprofen and acetaminophen, under the guidance of doctors to relieve the pain. If there are some placenta and fetal membrane residues in the uterine cavity, it is necessary to give timely treatment to clear the uterus so as to relieve the symptoms. In the short time after delivery, the mother should rest more and avoid strenuous exercise and heavy physical labor to avoid affecting the recovery of the body. The woman can also eat more high-protein, high vitamin food, which can speed up the recovery of the body.
