What postpartum infections can women get? How we can avoid them?

1y trước

Dear user, thank you for your entry. A postpartum woman is vulnerable to wound infection at the vagina or at the C-section scar, so caring for the wound is very important. Another infection that she may suffer from is mastitis, which is infection of the breast, which is commonly caused by stasis of breastmilk in the milk ducts. Consistent breastfeeding and thorough expression of breastmilk for the entire breast can help reduce stasis.
