1.What is postpartum diastasis recti?

The answers to your questions about postpartum diastasis recti repair are all here!

During pregnancy, the expansion of the abdomen makes the white lines of the abdomen more elongated and thinned, creating gaps or separations. From the above **, we can clearly see that, in simple terms, our abdomen continues to enlarge during pregnancy, so that the rectus abdominis muscle separates from the position of the white line of the abdomen to both sides.

Different people have different types of diastasis recti, but all belong to separation.

Subjects place their hands behind their heads, supine or chest up. After the rectus abdominis muscle is found in the upper and lower fingers of the navel, the examiner opens it horizontally to detect the rectus abdominis separation index at the upper and lower navels.

It is normal for the muscles on both sides to be within 2 cm, and between 2 cm and 3 cm can not perform weight-bearing exercises with trunk flexion and twisting. More than 3cm is a severe diastasis rectus abdominis and requires prompt medical attention.

Finally, I would like to tell you that postpartum diastasis rectus abdominis does not only occur in pregnant women, but also in both men and non-pregnant women.

Because intervention is generally not required, most pregnant women can recover on their own 4-12 weeks postpartum, and the intervention of exercise will speed up the recovery. As long as you repair well and persevere, you will soon be able to return to the waist of the willow leaf to give birth!

Although diastasis rectus abdominis will not have too much impact on health, it will have a great impact on the psychology of postpartum mothers, I hope that mothers will not affect their self-confidence because of diastasis rectus abdominis, and don't forget to love themselves while caring for their little lives.

Like obese patients, they can lose weight through dieting or exercise in time, and when they lose weight, the ** of the rectus abdominis muscle will be solved, the pressure in the abdominal cavity will be reduced, and the diastasis rectus abdominis may be improved. For pregnant women in the early postpartum half a year, is a critical period for the recovery of rectus abdominis separation, especially in the postpartum period, should be timely put on the abdominal band, the abdominal band will promote the separation of the rectus abdominis muscle, and there are some professional actions, can also help the separated rectus abdominis muscle to return to normal. However, if there is no effect by using the above ** method, for example, there is no recovery from half a year to a year after giving birth, then you should seek surgery**.

The most important method of surgery is currently a minimally invasive method.

You can go to the hospital for repair, because this aspect of the problem, will affect life problems, affect a family problem, women's health problems, especially women after childbirth, it is necessary to do repair.

1. Timely and correct exercises after childbirth can gradually recover 2. You can do some sit-ups or planks and leg presses under the guidance of a doctor. Exercises such as kneeling and leg raisings will gradually ease.

You can usually do some abdominal exercises, such as sit-ups and crunches, and it will be effective to stick to it slowly. However, after giving birth, it is necessary to wait for the wound to recover for a period of time to train to avoid tearing.

You should go to the hospital to find the corresponding doctor for treatment as soon as possible, and then you can exercise more to adjust your abdominal muscles.

The rectus abdominis muscle is located on both sides of the middle line of the anterior abdominal wall of the human body, and the rectus abdominis muscle is needed for the movement of the human pelvis, waist bending, etc. The common reason for diastasis rectus abdominis is that female friends become larger and larger as the child develops during pregnancy, which will loosen the rectus abdominis muscle, resulting in an increase in the distance between the rectus abdominis muscles, which will form diastasis rectus. Recovery can be restored by exercising.

First, the action is to stand and tuck the abdomen, put the body against the wall, take a deep breath and adduct the abdomen as much as possible.

Second, it is to kneel and take a four-point kneeling posture.

3. You can do kneeling and stretch your legs.

Fourth, it is a supine leg press. If due to malnutrition, improper exercise, etc., the diastasis rectus abdominis has not been significantly improved, or even an abdominal wall hernia (such as an umbilical hernia with the small intestine protruding from the navel), then surgery should be taken to suture the rectus abdominis muscle separated on both sides.

From the current point of view, the main reason why the incidence of diastasis rectus abdominis is so high now is the transformation of society, which has slowly shifted from the original agriculture and industry to the service industry and office culture. From the perspective of today's women, in the process of receiving education from an early age, there is a lack of exercises for core muscles and abdominal muscles. Then, before pregnancy, if you don't do a good job of preparation and exercise, in fact, the abdominal wall muscles are not very suitable for the pregnancy process, because the pregnancy process may take more than 9 months, and the postpartum recovery may not be particularly good.

Moreover, the current national family planning policy is panda-like care for pregnant women. In the process of pregnancy, it is often better to eat and exercise less, resulting in a larger fetus, and now the proportion of caesarean sections is also relatively high, which directly damages and destroys the muscles of the anterior abdominal wall, so it leads to the separation of the rectus abdominis muscle after childbirth.

The most direct cause is weakness of the transverse abdominis muscle, blowing
