Many women who have undergone cesarean section may experience itching at the scar site after surgery, which is actually a normal phenomenon. This indicates that the wound is slowly healing. So, what should be used to relieve itching in cesarean section scars?
Scar itching after cesarean section can be treated with some topical ointments, some of which have excellent anti itch effects. Women can buy and use them under the advice of a doctor. It is important to note that women should not forcefully scratch scar areas with their hands, as this can worsen itching and lead to infection. If women want scars to heal quickly, they can eat more foods rich in vitamin E, such as apples and bananas, which can also enhance their immune system.
After cesarean section surgery, women should pay attention to avoiding friction on the wound, otherwise it may lead to scar hyperplasia, itching and other conditions. It is also necessary to take protective measures in daily life to avoid exposure to ultraviolet rays, otherwise pigmentation may occur. When the weather is cold, it is also important to pay attention to keeping warm and avoid irritating the skin, which may affect the recovery of the wound.
Women should keep the scar area clean and hygienic, wipe off sweat in a timely manner. If itching occurs at the wound site, do not wear tight or customized clothes to avoid exacerbating local irritation, causing inflammatory reactions in connective tissue, and further itching. Women also need to pay attention to their diet and avoid eating spicy and stimulating foods. They can eat more fresh fruits and vegetables.
