Hello Doctor, I have delivered my first baby seven months back using c-section. But still i am experiencing the back pain while getting up daily. After sometime i feel okay. I am 28 years old now. After delivery only i am experiencing this pain. When this will be cured? What i need to do?
Hi I'm Chat Doctor.  Yes its common to experience pain after c section until breastfeeding or 2 years due to various reasons like hormonal changes, ligament laxity, calcium deficiency, protein or vitamin insufficiency or thyroid imbalance. Symptomatic relief can be obtained by application of diclofenac muscle relaxant gel, with hot water fomentation twice or thrice daily for 2 weeks. You can include supplements of Calcium & vitamin D in your diet which will help in strengthening of bones. Physiotherapy exercise will also be helpful.1]Start exercises to strengthen your abdominal and back muscles.2]Maintain proper posture and body mechanics while lifting things, feeding with back support. Bend at knee. Use your legs more than back. 3]Get a relaxing massage...regular meditation or yoga.4]If its still uncontrollable then you can consider taking NSAIDs and physiotherapy modalities consulting your physician and direct evaluation of your condition. Reduce weight if necessary. In most cases strengthening exercise, change in lifestyle with diet relives pain. Hope it helps. In doubt do reply.
