Should postpartum pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation be done if the physical examination fails

Postpartum pelvic floor muscle examination failure usually requires rehabilitation treatment. Pelvic floor muscle dysfunction may be related to pregnancy and childbirth injuries, changes in hormone levels, and other factors, manifested as symptoms such as urinary leakage and pelvic organ prolapse. Postpartum pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation mainly improves muscle tone through electrical stimulation, biofeedback training, and other methods. Electrical stimulation can activate neuromuscular reflexes and promote local blood circulation; Biofeedback training helps patients master correct contraction techniques through visual guidance. Kegel exercise is a commonly used method of independent exercise that requires continuous practice to be effective. Some patients need to combine vaginal dumbbells to enhance the training effect. During the rehabilitation period, behaviors that increase abdominal pressure, such as lifting heavy objects and standing for a long time, should be avoided. If pelvic floor muscle injury is severe and accompanied by bladder rectal prolapse, surgical treatment may be necessary. But most postpartum women can significantly improve their symptoms through standardized rehabilitation. It is recommended to wear loose clothing and drink no more than 2000 milliliters of water per day to reduce urinary pressure. Pay attention to supplementing high-quality protein and vitamin C in diet to promote tissue repair, and avoid spicy and stimulating foods. During the rehabilitation period, if there is worsening pain or abnormal bleeding, timely follow-up should be sought.
