What's the harm of tightening the abdomen with a belt? Veins will be compressed, which may easily lead to varicose veins of lower limbs or hemorrhoids. If the waist and abdomen are tightened too tightly, such as the "zongzi abdominal belt", it will also increase the abdominal pressure, lead to the decrease of ligament support, cause uterine prolapse, uterine retroflexion, anterior or posterior vaginal wall bulging, and easily induce gynecological diseases such as pelvic inflammatory disease and adnexitis. Too tight abdominal restraint will also cause greater pressure on the intestines, slow peristalsis after meals, loss of appetite or constipation. Because the abdominal artery is not smooth and the blood supply capacity of blood vessels is limited, it will lead to insufficient blood supply to the heart, compress the muscles around the spine, and hinder the normal activity and blood supply of muscles. How to use it correctly? If a professional functional abdominal belt is used, the outer packaging of the traditional Chinese medicine prescription belt is removed and put into the inner bag of the abdominal belt. Aim the prescription belt of traditional Chinese medicine at Shenque (navel), Qihai and Guanyuan with moderate elasticity, and wear it for not less than 8 hours every day. Each China prescription tape is valid for two months after it is opened. If it is used for more than two months after delivery, choose the enhanced combination.
Mothers should pay attention to getting back in shape: Postpartum diet plays a vital role in slimming down smoothly. To ensure that babies and new mothers have adequate nutritional intake, the diet must be rich in protein, vitamins and minerals, such as fish, lean meat, eggs, milk, fruits and vegetables. New mothers try to eat unsaturated vegetable oil, and the less oil, the better. Salad dressing and high-oil peanut butter are fattening foods, so it is best for new mothers to eat less. New mothers should eat a proper amount of dairy products, but they should pay attention to choosing low-fat and skim milk instead of condensed milk and flavored milk. Desserts and snacks are also not suitable for new mothers who want to lose weight, especially cakes and chocolates, which are particularly high in calories and should be properly controlled. Avoid strenuous exercise. In order to lose weight quickly, many parturients immediately take strenuous exercise to lose weight after delivery, which is likely to affect the recovery of the uterus, cause bleeding, and even seriously damage the surgical wound or vulva incision during delivery. Don't forget that warm-up exercise before exercise and relaxation exercise after exercise are indispensable.
Precautions for using corset 1. Pay attention to chemical fiber: chemical fiber has a strong smell and is generally uncomfortable. It is easy to irritate the skin in summer and generate static electricity in winter, especially several sets, commonly known as "Zongzi Belly Belt", which are very inconvenient to use. So be sure to know the ingredients contained in the product when buying.
2. Afraid of binding, afraid of squeezing: especially the wide and heavy abdominal belt, some sets (commonly known as "Zongzi abdominal belt") are not expensive, but most of them are made of chemical fiber, which basically does not contain cotton, and they are not easy to use in summer or winter. Binding extrusion of gastrointestinal tract and abdominal cavity is not good for your health, but it is not good if you have more binding.
3. Inelasticity of pure cotton: Although pure cotton or gauze is breathable, it is inelastic. If it is loose, it will have no effect. It is too tight and uncomfortable, and it is not convenient to use.
4, pay attention to the size of the abdominal belt: the abdominal belt is divided into three sizes: large, medium and small, and many mothers are entangled because of the size mismatch after buying it. It is recommended to choose a uniform size and good natural elasticity.
