Pelvic floor relaxation is a common name of our people. Clinically, this kind of disease is called pelvic floor dysfunction, also known as pelvic floor defect. It is the weakening of pelvic floor support caused by various reasons, which leads to the displacement of pelvic organs and the abnormal position and function of other pelvic organs.
2 Clinical manifestations
Pelvic floor muscle dysfunction can be divided into pelvic floor muscle tension weakness and pelvic floor muscle tension relaxation weakness. Although both situations are manifestations of weakness, the reasons for weakness are different, and the corresponding training methods are naturally different, so remember to make an evaluation before training, and then do training. Don't start training. You must first know your current problems, and then choose the training that suits you to solve them.
Relaxation and weakness can lead to:
1) stress urinary incontinence (that is, urinary leakage, the most common? One kind)
2) Vaginal relaxation (couples have no feelings about life)
3) Vaginal wall bulging
4) Uterine prolapse (pelvic floor muscles lose their ability to protect and support, leading to organ prolapse, which will leave the body in severe cases. )
5) tail? ache
6) Low back pain
Stress can lead to:
1) frequent urination
2) Sense of micturition (When the pelvic floor muscles are tense, the bladder will be squeezed, and there will be obvious sense of micturition at this time. If you urinate frequently, it is easy to cause inflammation. )
3) Sexual pain
4) Muscular spasm in genitourinary diaphragm
5) Constipation and dysuria (after the pelvic floor muscles are damaged, the nerves can't recruit defecation muscles efficiently, and constipation will occur. )
6) Hemorrhoids
Misunderstanding of postpartum pelvic floor muscle dysfunction
Myth 1: postpartum? On slimming and shaping, ignoring pelvic floor rehabilitation
Many parturients do not correctly realize the importance of postpartum pelvic floor rehabilitation, and often focus on slimming and shaping. Incorrect training sequence will cause secondary damage to the body after delivery.
Myth 2: pelvic floor repair is not important, only when the symptoms are serious.
Many women don't understand pelvic floor dysfunction and blame many problems on not sitting well for the next month. Problems are also "shelved", but I don't know that this will miss the best period of pelvic floor repair. Most parturients suffer from pelvic floor dysfunction, but the severity is different.
Myth # 3: Pelvic floor dysfunction will only occur if it is delivered naturally.
Most women who give birth naturally have dilatation of birth canal, muscle fiber deformation and hypotonia. Pelvic instability, joint dislocation and other pelvic floor muscle relaxation problems. However, caesarean section women also have to go through the process of separation of rectus abdominis during pregnancy and operation. Studies have shown that the incidence of urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse during cesarean section is as high as vaginal delivery, so cesarean section still cannot avoid pelvic floor dysfunction.
Myth 4: Pelvic floor dysfunction has appeared and is difficult to recover.
The treatment of pelvic floor dysfunction is not complicated, and the treatment effect is good. Correct pelvic floor training will greatly improve your pelvic floor dysfunction, of course, the premise is to combine the doctor's diagnosis.
Myth 5: If you plan to continue to have children, you don't need pelvic floor rehabilitation.
Many postpartum mothers think that pelvic floor rehabilitation is not needed for the time being. In fact, whether it is a natural delivery or a caesarean section, the pelvic floor muscles will be damaged to varying degrees. Serious damage to the pelvic floor will also lead to pelvic floor dysfunction diseases such as urinary incontinence, uterine prolapse, rectal prolapse and bladder prolapse, and second pregnancy will aggravate pelvic floor dysfunction diseases. Therefore, it is necessary to remind women who are going to continue to have children to do pelvic floor function evaluation and repair in advance.
