What happened to the swelling in the anus after normal delivery?

  It is normal to experience anal swelling after normal delivery. There is no need to worry too much about it.  It is normal for the muscles around the pelvic floor to relax after a normal birth because the uterus and uterine ligaments have not fully recovered, which can lead to anal or lower abdominal swelling and discomfort. Many women are prone to hemorrhoids after normal delivery, resulting in unfavorable bowel movements, fear of pain and afraid to defecate, which can easily cause constipation after a long time. It is recommended that women start to move on the floor 1 day after delivery and do more anal lifting exercises. If you feel that the anal swelling is serious, first go to the obstetrics department, except for perineal hematoma; in addition, you can go to the anorectal department to see if it is a hemorrhoid. If it is a hemorrhoid, you can use conservative methods to relieve the anal discomfort first (hemorrhoid cream or suppositories); if it is very serious, you can consider surgical removal after the mother’s body recovers well. At the same time, pay attention to a light diet, eat more vegetables, and vitamin-rich foods to enhance gastrointestinal motility and facilitate bowel movements. Do not eat too greasy food, causing constipation, and then aggravate the anal swelling when defecating.  After giving birth, you should take more rest, pay attention to a light diet, and keep your bowels open, so that the feeling of bloating will be relieved when your body recovers.
