Is "corset" really that magical? The current "corset" is actually transformed from the "medical abdominal belt". "Medical abdominal belt" is a kind of medical equipment with strict design specifications and application scope. Usually used for patients who have had abdominal surgery. Its main function is to fix and avoid the traction wound and wound cracking caused by physical activity, and its main purpose is to make the wound heal faster.
Under normal circumstances, doctors will not use "medical abdominal belt" for pregnant women. Even for cesarean section, it is only used by patients under special circumstances.
The use of "medical abdominal belt" is also limited, and it is generally recommended to use it for no more than 12 hours a day.
We often say that "corset" refers to clothing products, which is very different from "medical corset". At present, there is no research to prove that "abdominal girdling" is helpful for postpartum recovery, let alone one year after delivery.
The "magic effect" of "corset belt" in people's minds is 1, and the figure can be recovered quickly.
"Girdling the abdomen" can achieve the effect of tightening the abdomen visually. With the help of external force, abdominal fat will not be transferred and reduced. The moment you untie the corset, you will find that the fat is still there, and the fat is still so fat. ...
2. Accelerate the discharge of lochia
The lochia will be discharged even if you don't use the "corset". In general, it takes 4-6 weeks for lochia to be discharged. "Abdominal girdling" will not shorten this period, but sometimes wearing "abdominal girdling" for too long or too tightly will affect blood circulation and lochia discharge.
3. Help organs return to their positions
After pregnancy, in order to make more room for the fetus, the position of the organ in the body will change, and after the baby is born, the organ will slowly return to its original position.
This process will happen whether there is a "girdle" or not, and it will not be of substantial help.
Therefore, "corset" is not as "magical" as people think. Improper wearing can easily inhibit breathing, resulting in excessive abdominal pressure and affecting blood circulation. Breast-feeding+reasonable diet+regular exercise+regular work and rest is the sunshine avenue for postpartum recovery.
