Back bone pain and stomach

Hi mum, I’m really concerned reading this especially since you mentioned severe back and stomach pain together with fever, and it has happened more than once after giving birth. This is not something I would just brush off as normal postnatal body pain because fever plus pain can sometimes mean there is an infection or something internal that needs checking. I really think you should go and see a doctor or go to A&E as soon as possible instead of managing it at home, especially since it is recurring and painful. It’s better to get it properly assessed and treated early so you don’t risk it getting worse.

Having both back pain and stomach pain together, especially with fever, is something you really should not wait on. It could be a few different things, some minor and some that need treatment, so getting a proper check is the only way to know for sure. I would bring yourself to the polyclinic or a doctor as soon as you can, and if the fever is high or the pain is very bad, go to A&E instead of waiting. Postpartum issues can sometimes be easy to miss because we are so focused on the baby, but your health matters too, please take care of yourself.
