If a woman experiences an unexpected pregnancy or experiences physical abnormalities after pregnancy that prevent her from continuing the pregnancy, she needs to undergo abortion surgery. Some women are pregnant for a longer period of time and need to undergo induced abortion. After the abortion surgery, they still feel that their breasts are swollen. They want to understand why women still experience chest swelling after induced abortion?
It is normal for women to experience chest swelling after induced abortion, as the levels of estrogen in the female body continue to rise after pregnancy, and it takes some time to recover to the levels before pregnancy. Therefore, during this period, women may feel chest swelling. Women don't need to worry too much, as their chest swelling will gradually disappear. Just take good care of yourself in daily life.
If the swelling and pain are severe, you can use a towel to apply heat. Hot compress can soften breast lumps and improve breast swelling. Women should pay attention to avoiding the areola and nipple areas during hot compress, as the skin in these two areas is prone to burns.
In addition, the symptom of chest swelling can be relieved by massage. You can massage in one direction for about 20 minutes, and feel the skin slightly hot.
In general, after induced abortion, breast distension in women will disappear within about a week, during which women can control their diet. Don't eat too much soup or food, and don't wear tight underwear to avoid exacerbating the discomfort of chest swelling.
