Correct method of cleaning vulva after natural delivery and lateral incision
Natural delivery and cleaning vulva after lateral incision are an important part of postpartum care for new mothers. Proper cleaning methods can avoid infection and inflammation. Here is the correct way to clean the vulva after lateral incision during delivery.

Prepare a special washbasin and towel.

New mothers should prepare special washbasins and towels. Wash the washbasin before use, and dry the towel or put it in a ventilated place after use. Because towels are exposed to the sun for a long time, it is easy to breed bacteria and fungi, so they should be exposed to the sun after regular cleaning.

Warm boiled water cleaning

When cleaning perineum after natural delivery and lateral incision, warm water should be used without other drugs. Clean it at least twice at a time. Perineal wounds should be checked for healing every day, and stitches should be removed as soon as possible if there are symptoms of infection.

Put on sanitary napkins in time after washing.

After cleaning the vulva, put a sanitary towel on it in time, because this can keep the vulva from touching unsterilized pants, keep the vulva dry, and let the sanitary towel absorb the secretion of the vulva in time, but new mothers should pay attention to changing the sanitary towel on time.

Rinse in time after defecation

Postpartum care, new mothers should pay attention to cleaning after defecation. After defecation, they should wipe clean with toilet paper from front to back, and wash or rinse their anus with warm water. If there is fecal stains on the anus, intestinal bacteria in fecal stains can easily enter the vagina, causing inflammation.
