I have been having back pain for the last 2 months after my C-section delivery. Which pain-relief medicine or treatment might help me feel better?

Asked by Female, 32 ยท 9 hours ago

Back pain for several weeks after a C-section can happen because the abdominal muscles and lower back muscles become strained during pregnancy, surgery, lifting the baby, poor posture during feeding, or reduced core strength after delivery. Sitting for long periods while breastfeeding may also increase pressure on the lower back. Relief often improves with gentle stretching, warm compresses, light walking, posture correction, and by avoiding rapid bending or heavy lifting. Doctors may sometimes advise medicines like paracetamol or ibuprofen, if they are safe for you and your breastfeeding status. Some women also benefit from physiotherapy exercises that gradually strengthen the abdominal and back muscles. Sleeping with proper back support and changing feeding positions can reduce strain. Do not ignore symptoms such as fever, leg numbness, wound swelling, urine problems, or severe worsening pain, as these may require medical assessment.
