natural Postpartum How to care for vaginal tears? After natural delivery, you must develop the habit of soaking in warm water frequently, preferably four times a day for fifteen minutes each time. This can help the sutures to be absorbed (doctors now generally use sutures that are absorbable and do not need to be removed), and can also promote blood circulation, allowing the wound to heal as quickly as possible to avoid infection. It should be noted that it is best not to add commercially available cleaning fluid when soaking in warm water because it will make the wound too dry and cause peeling, which will make the wound more painful. Generally, if the wound is not infected, just use clean water.
In addition, it is best to develop the habit of inspecting the wound every day until two weeks after delivery. You can use a mirror to inspect it yourself or ask your husband to help observe it. If the wound is red, swollen, cracked, bleeding, pus discharged, or has fever phenomenon, it is best to seek medical treatment as soon as possible. In addition, perineal wound pain after childbirth is a normal phenomenon, and the degree varies depending on the individual's constitution. Generally, the pain will gradually reduce within one to two weeks after delivery. However, if the wound pain becomes more and more serious, you should seek medical attention to check for wound infection.
According to folk custom, it is taboo to go out during confinement. However, if wound infection occurs and you do not seek medical treatment as soon as possible, it may lead to necrotizing fasciitis or the spread of bacteria throughout the body, causing sepsis, or even death. This must not be ignored. >>>> How long is a woman's vagina?
