What’s wrong with the second day of a c-section and no gas?

Cesarean section is the common name for cesarean delivery, and the fact that you have not yet passed gas on the second postoperative day may be related to anesthesia, intestinal irritation during surgery, and postoperative activities. The main reason for not having gas on the 2nd day after cesarean section is the paralysis and weakening of peristalsis triggered by anesthesia during the operation. In addition, the stimulation of the intestinal tract during the operation may also cause the weakening of peristalsis due to stress, and it may be related to the fact that the mother did not actively get down to the ground to move around after the operation. If you are physically able to do so, it is recommended that you get down to the ground as soon as possible to stimulate peristalsis, which in turn will lead to gas evacuation. If you have no bowel movement for more than three days after the operation, you can give a laxative such as Keserol, which can induce bowel movement and reduce abdominal distension. Don’t be overly nervous about this symptom of not being able to pass gas, and actively cooperate with your doctor to deal with it.
