During the confinement period, doctors do not recommend postpartum diaphoresis. Because postpartum sweating can make the mother's body weak. Postpartum sweating can treat postpartum wind, which is also called confinement disease. But you should do diaphoresis three months after delivery. This can ensure the effect while the mother is healthy.

Can postpartum sweating treat confinement disease

1 Is postpartum sweating effective in treating confinement disease? Confinement disease is a disease caused by the intrusion of wind and cold due to the widening of muscles and bones during the period of childbirth. Medically, it can be classified as postpartum rheumatism. Sweating after the full moon can not only remove wind, cold, dampness and other evil spirits on the surface of the skin, but also expel evil spirits deep in the meridians and joints, thereby achieving the effect of treating postpartum syndrome. 2. The best time for postpartum sweating. Postpartum sweating is best done 30 days after delivery. If the postpartum sweating occurs earlier than 30 days, the mother has just experienced the trauma and bleeding of childbirth, as well as labor force, etc., and is in the stage of severe depletion of qi and blood and weak disease resistance. If he perspires forcibly again, his body fluids will be depleted even more, and his qi and blood will become even more deficient. Therefore, sweating should be carried out 30 days after delivery, because at this time the mother's body has almost recovered and can withstand the loss of sweating. 3. How to sweat after childbirth. The popular method for sweating is to boil an old hen, or boil rice wine, wolfberry, and ginger together and drink it. After eating, you can get into a thick quilt and cover yourself to sweat. Light wave sweating Nowadays, there are many postpartum centers. The method of sweating in these places is relatively scientific. They use "light wave therapy rooms" to treat postpartum sweating for pregnant women. When the room temperature is 40-60℃, the mother will sweat evenly and thoroughly throughout her body. Enjoying 20 minutes of light therapy is equivalent to sweating as much as running 10 kilometers long distance. 4 Precautions for postpartum sweating 1. Be sure to replenish water before sweating. Drink two cups of warm water first to prevent collapse caused by excessive sweating. 1. After sweating, don’t rush to take a shower on the same day to avoid getting cold. It is recommended to take a hot bath the next day. 2. After drinking the sweating soup, it is recommended not to breastfeed on the same day to avoid affecting the baby. 3. Don’t sweat too much. The time should be strictly controlled within 20 to 30 minutes. If you sweat too much, your body will lose fluids and blood circulation will decrease sharply, making people prone to collapse.

How about drinking confinement water after delivery?

Many postpartum mothers still have a vague concept of confinement water. Is it necessary to drink confinement water during confinement? What are the benefits of drinking confinement water? How should I drink confinement water?

1. Confinement water has a wide range of uses

In addition to being drunk directly, confinement water can also be used In making confinement meal. You can use confinement water for cooking, making soup, and cooking vegetables. Boiling vegetables in hot confinement water can eliminate the cold nature of vegetables.

2. Postpartum water cannot completely replace drinking water

Although postpartum water has outstanding effects, due to its hot nature, drinking large amounts for a long time can easily cause maternal internal heat. For mothers who already have body heat, it is better to drink less postpartum water. And because the water during confinement is hot, drinking it may increase the risk of lochia and postpartum hemorrhage. Therefore, drinking postpartum water should be done in moderation, and it is best to consult a doctor before drinking it. Wang Yumei, director of the Nutrition Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Tsinghua University, mentioned that when giving birth, mothers consume a lot of energy and blood and tend to sweat. In addition, during the confinement period, according to traditional customs, the room is generally kept warm. In this way, the mother is more She loves to sweat. If she does not pay attention to replenishing water at this time, the mother will be dehydrated. Confinement water is rice wine water. Drinking some after delivery can replenish blood and promote qi, promote blood circulation, and avoid postpartum deficiency of qi and blood. However, since this kind of water is hot, it is obviously unscientific to completely replace drinking water. Drinking too much can also lead to getting angry. It is recommended to maintain normal drinking water during confinement period, rather than using "confinement water" instead of normal drinking water.

3. Postpartum weight loss should be combined with exercise

Many people think that Little S’s recovery is so good because of the confinement water, but this may not be the case. Losing weight after childbirth also requires exercise and a balanced diet. From the analysis of modern nutritional value, after rice is fermented, it is easier to be absorbed by the human body, and the newly generated substances after fermentation are beneficial to the human body.

But this does not mean that drinking rice wine can help you lose weight. Losing weight still depends on moderate exercise after childbirth. " Zhu Yi, associate professor at the School of Food Science and Nutritional Engineering at China Agricultural University, explained the "rudimentary form" of confinement water.

4. Confinement water and various decoctions should cooperate with each other

Postpartum water contains sugar and protein, which can dispel cold and warm the body. However, the nutrients in it are insufficient. Mothers still need to combine postpartum water with other drinks to obtain sufficient nutrition. However, mothers should not drink too much ordinary water during confinement (it is not good for body drainage and can easily cause problems such as water chest and visceral sagging). She should drink more soy milk, original vegetable soup, non-alcoholic postpartum rice wine, biochemical soup, etc. In this way, the supply of milk will be both sufficient and nutritious.
