During natural delivery, if there is a soft birth canal laceration, the doctor will use suture technology to help the birth canal heal the wound. In general, tearing of the birth canal is not a particularly dangerous situation. After the correct suture treatment, you can wait about 5 days for normal suture removal. There will be skin nerve damage at the tearing part of the birth canal, so the parturient will feel some pain at this time. Wait a week or two for various times, and the pain will gradually ease.
How to nurse soft birth canal laceration? Pay attention to posture and hygiene at rest.
The birth canal must be kept clean except for suture. After the birth canal is torn and sutured, the parturient should try to rest in the lying position opposite to the wound. For example, if the torn wound is on the left side of the body, then try to choose the lying mode on the right side, which can effectively prevent lochia from flowing into the wound and better avoid increasing the probability of maternal infection.
Try to keep the defecation process smoother after suture to avoid the wound from cracking. It is best to take a normal sitting posture when the parturient defecates.
In addition, if there is suture, consult the doctor whether the wound needs stitches, and when it needs stitches. Now the soft birth canal injury is more painful. You should lie down and rest. Do a good job of disinfection to minimize the occurrence of infection.
What are the effects of soft birth canal laceration that may lead to postpartum hemorrhage?
The biggest influence of soft birth canal laceration is postpartum hemorrhage. During this period, the uterine contractility is too strong, the progress is too fast, and the fetus is too large, which often leads to the tearing of the fetus and * * * *, and the fetus has not yet been delivered. It is inappropriate to protect the perineum. Incorrect delivery by midwives can lead to perineal laceration.
Incision of perineum in a short time is easy to form serious perineal laceration. Premature perineal incision may also lead to excessive bleeding. Perineal laceration can delay reaching the diaphragm, paraventricular space, and even go deep into the pelvic wall, which is serious in the deep part near hemorrhoids and can spread hematoma to the broad ligament.
During childbirth, slight tearing of the cervix is almost inevitable. Usually the laceration is shallow and there is no obvious bleeding, so the cervical laceration is not diagnosed. When the fetus passes through the cervix too fast, there is more bleeding from cervical laceration.
In severe cases, the fistula may droop, leading to massive bleeding in the lower part of the uterus. With regard to postpartum hemorrhage caused by soft birth canal laceration, this can make people better understand postpartum hemorrhage, and at the same time know that mothers should ban soft birth canal laceration, otherwise it will affect their health.
