Low back pain after caesarean section is always bad, do not ignore the treatment of abdominal scars

I. What is the abdominal scar after caesarean section? Every great mother will be left with a transverse surgical scar in the abdomen after a caesarean section, which is a local symptom left by the repair of the uterine incision with fibrous tissue instead of normal tissue. This wound heals after surgery , to go through three stages, the first stage is the inflammation stage, the local skin will be red, itchy, and the skin temperature will increase; the second stage is the proliferative stage, which usually lasts about three weeks, and the local skin will appear red, purple, The texture becomes hard and even highlights the surface of the skin; the third stage is the remodeling period, which can also be called the recovery period. The scar formed after caesarean section not only affects the local beauty, but also may cause chronic low back pain.

The picture comes from the Internet Second, what is the relationship between postpartum scar and low back pain? Do you often have low back pain after caesarean section? Whether you are holding your baby, or simply standing or sitting, the symptoms can be relieved slightly after lying down. Repeatedly. The location of the scar after caesarean section is mostly located in the lower abdomen, which is the position of the core muscle group we often say, and the rectus abdominis is its most important member. It is located on both sides of the midline of the anterior abdominal wall, originates from the upper border of the pubis (between the pubic tubercle and the symphysis pubis), and ends in front of the 5th to 7th costal cartilages and the xiphoid process of the sternum. The main function is to bend the body forward when it is contracted, the back muscles extend and maintain the antagonistic tension, so as to maintain the forward posture of the body and prevent the body from falling further forward. If you lean forward and bend for too long, you will overuse the rectus abdominis, and at the same time, the antagonistic back muscles will fatigue with overuse. At this time, when symptoms of low back pain occur, people often only pay attention to the muscle group in the painful area, while ignoring the tightness of the rectus abdominis; and the tightness of the rectus abdominis cannot be released, which will make the muscles in the painful area more unable to relax. Low back pain will be delayed and difficult to heal, and chronic low back pain will form over time, which will greatly reduce the quality of women’s life and work. The common referred pain of the rectus abdominis can cause low back pain at the same height as the trigger point of the rectus abdominis. The trigger point is mainly caused by overuse and strain. Pain symptoms are also induced when the patient tries to stretch the rectus abdominis, that is, when the patient bends the back and straightens the waist, it induces low back pain or makes the original pain worse.

Low back pain after cesarean section is most likely caused by rectus myofascial adhesions. Adhesion is a complication of post-surgical scars, and scars affect an unimaginable range, from the superficial skin, the middle muscle and fascia, to the deep internal organs and innervated nerves. You can test yourself if there is any problem with the scar. First, gently press the scar from all angles to feel whether the symptoms of the low back pain are relieved; secondly, you can press the scar area heavily to see the local skin backflow status. Poor blood backflow indicates that the scar area is abnormal. blood supply or nerve inflammation. Third, what should I do if the abdominal scar is adhered? 1) Self-help first, local massage or hot compress can be used to promote blood circulation of local scars and improve local blood supply; 2) To stretch the rectus abdominis, you can roll back and forth through a yoga ball; Plank support, lateral support and other training can also be done appropriately, which requires the guidance of professional rehabilitation physicians; 3) Abdominal breathing training, specific operation: the abdomen is raised when inhaling, and the abdomen is restored when exhaling. This exercise can only be performed when there is no symptoms of backache at all or when the backache has been cured. The number of times is 20 cycles each time, and it can be performed 3-4 times a day; 4) Then there is the small acupotomy local release, which uses the acupotomy to release the adhesions and scars of the local skin lesions. On palpation, indurations such as cords can be palpated under the skin, as well as the point of adhesion (the point where the skin cannot be pushed in a certain direction) around the scar. Acupuncture removes the adhesion points around the scar, and cuts the induration around the scar, so as to reduce the tension around the scar, and the tension on the rectus abdominis will also be reduced after the tension is reduced, so as to achieve the treatment of postpartum low back pain. purpose.
