Postpartum low back pain (sacroiliac joint subluxation)

  I remember when I first got out of the month, I couldn’t straighten my back after changing a diaper, and my sisters around me would complain about back pain, and the whole person was not well after having a baby. The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into. The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into.  The actual “back pain” is actually only a symptom in the clinic, and many diseases will appear back pain, such as lumbar muscle strain, lumbar disc herniation, and so on. However, the mother found in the clinic that many mothers said that the lumbar pain is actually in the lower part, exactly in the lumbosacral region. This area is medically known as the sacroiliac joint. Many mothers will have localized pressure pain in this area, along with discomfort in the thighs and hips, and typically there will be obvious long and short legs, and pain when walking or standing. Such symptoms are easily confused clinically with lumbar disc herniation and require careful physical examination and history taking by the physician, otherwise they are easily misdiagnosed. Therefore, the exact term is sacroiliac joint subluxation, or sacroiliac arthritis, also known as sacroiliac joint dysfunction.  The process of giving birth to a child is quite painful, but I did not expect to have a back pain “moon disease”, which makes many mothers feel depressed. In order to adapt to the fetus and to prepare for childbirth, the endocrine level of the female body changes, which increases the flexibility of the pelvic ligaments, but in the process of childbirth or after the birth of a certain position or load and other conditions exceed the ability of the ligaments to withstand, resulting in deformity can not restore its original mechanical properties, will cause joint instability, resulting in sacroiliac joint subluxation or joint misalignment. Such a situation accounts for about 50% of postpartum lumbosacral pain.  Seeing this, don’t you feel a little bit heartbroken? How to do it, “moon disease” is not treated well but to be painful for life. It’s okay, it’s okay, I’ve found the “Shushan Sword Technique” to share with you.  Prevention: (1) pay attention to proper rest after childbirth, combining work and rest, avoid hugging the child for a long time, bending over to do housework, avoid lifting too heavy or lifting too high objects, as well as premature running, walking long distances, etc.; (2) pay attention to the waist to keep warm, avoid being cold wind blowing; (3) pay attention to the correct posture when breastfeeding, do not recommend crossing your legs; (4) do not wear high heels too early after childbirth, to wear cloth shoes is good, the soles of shoes should be soft.  Treatment: You can use massage, acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine hot compress and other means to reset this joint, activate blood circulation, remove blood stasis, move Qi and relieve pain.  Ha ha, so mothers do not have to worry about pulling down what “moon disease”, in fact, “moon disease” is not reasonable, should say that the mother’s body changes, need proper conditioning, repair and treatment, this is not sitting out of the moon!
