What should I do if I am prone to pain in my hands and feet after childbirth?

Clinically, it is often found that some women experience pain in their hands and feet after childbirth. Many people believe that this is caused by catching a cold during the "confinement period". In fact, this understanding is wrong.

The main areas of hand pain in women after childbirth are the wrists and finger joints. Modern medicine believes that during the postpartum and lactation period, women's muscles and tendons often experience a decrease in elasticity and strength to varying degrees due to changes in endocrine hormones in the body. The tension in the joint capsules and ligaments near the joints also decreases, leading to joint relaxation.

In this case, if the mother does not pay attention to rest and does more housework, the already weak joints, tendons and ligaments will be overburdened and cause pain. If a mother uses cold water or is exposed to coldness while doing housework, she will experience hand pain.

Foot pain in postpartum women often occurs in the heel, which is caused by the degeneration of the heel fat pad. If the postpartum mother does not pay attention to proper activities during the "confinement month", the fat pad on the heel will degenerate. Once she walks, the degenerated fat pad will not be able to withstand the pressure of body weight and vibration during walking, and the fat pad will become edematous, congested and other inflammatory phenomena causing pain.

First of all, you should pay attention to adequate rest and avoid doing too much housework. Special attention should be paid to reducing the burden on the fingers and wrists. For example, the couple should cooperate when bathing the child to avoid the mother washing the child alone with one hand and holding the head with the other hand. When washing diapers, be sure to use warm water to avoid cold stimulation.

Secondly, while recuperating, the mother should get out of bed and move around appropriately, especially in the later stage of the "confinement month" and after the full month. She should walk around frequently. This can not only prevent the loss of heel fat pad and avoid postpartum foot pain, but also prevent excessive weight gain of the mother, regulate nerve function, and is very beneficial for improving sleep and increasing appetite.

The above is a detailed introduction to what causes pain in the hands and feet. When the above situations occur, there will be pain in the hands and feet. To improve this situation, you can choose simple medications, which will be of great help to the patient's pain. In normal times, you should improve your own exercise needs, which will have a good effect on improving pain in the hands and feet.
