How long can I use pelvic tummy belt after delivery?
Pelvic belt is used before abdominal belt. Some mothers are eager to use the abdominal belt first when they are in thin belly after delivery. At this time, the uterus and pelvis have not recovered, and the abdominal belt will form downward pressure, which is not conducive to pelvic contraction. You should use the pelvic girdle first, then the abdominal girdle.
In general, the pelvic girdle can be used two or three days after delivery, and it can be used after the wound is healed after caesarean section. It can be worn for about eight hours every day. When the pelvis is almost restored to the pre-pregnancy level, it can be used with the abdominal belt to achieve the effect of body shaping.
Pay attention to the time when using the abdominal belt. You can wear it for about eight hours every day. Before eating, the abdomen will contract relatively and need to be removed. After eating again, take it off before taking a shower, and then tie it after taking a shower.
Although both abdominal belt and pelvic belt exert inward pressure on joints through physical action, they both play a role in correcting body shape, but they are essentially different in function.
Abdominal tummy tuck has different functions according to different types. It can be divided into postpartum special and non-postpartum special. Postpartum abdominal contraction band can improve the waist-abdomen curve to the lower abdomen, not only can help the postpartum relaxed abdominal muscles to retract, reduce abdominal fat, but also can prevent internal organs from sagging. After caesarean section, the special abdominal belt not only has the shaping function mentioned above, but also can fix the surgical wound at an early stage, reduce the pulling of the wound due to activities, accelerate wound healing, reduce the appearance of scars, and effectively relieve pain when used.
Non-postpartum abdomen band, also called restraint band, is mainly used for people with abdominal obesity. Pelvic band is mainly used to correct the joint symptoms of pubic symphysis separation during pregnancy and help to close the pelvis. Its strength acts on the hip joint below the lower abdomen, not on the abdomen. It usually consists of one or two straps, which can relieve pelvic pain caused by childbirth.
