How to repair caesarean section scars

Director Xu Mingguang emphasized that during the wound healing process, fibroblasts in the skin layer will produce collagen and grow new scar tissue. If bacteria invade and cause infection and inflammation at this time, it will prolong the healing time, or excessive proliferation of collagen tissue will make the wound more likely to leave scars.

In principle, the beauty of a wound depends on the innate constitution and acquired care. For example, people who are born with keloid physique or who have slow absorption of sutures will continue to stimulate the proliferation of wound scars, and the probability of producing obvious scars is higher.

Of course, the quality of suturing techniques will also affect wound healing to some extent. What we can work on now is postoperative care, which is also an important key.

Director Xu Mingguang suggested that the wound should not be exposed to water within 1 week to avoid wound infection; from the operation to 6 weeks, a wound dressing containing hydrogel components can be used to keep the wound in a state that is conducive to the migration of epithelial cells, which can accelerate wound healing. The dressing will automatically detangle after absorbing the wound exudate. For the first 5-6 weeks, a dressing containing hydrogel components should be used and the dressing should be changed once a week. After 6 weeks and up to 6 months, a scar patch with stable adhesion can be used to adhere to the wound to provide appropriate pressure, reduce the pressure on the skin near the scar, make the covered scar less likely to bulge and expand, and prevent scar formation. In addition, when the dressing absorbs wound exudate, it will swell and detangle and cannot fit, it should be replaced; if the wound is red, swollen, burning, painful, has foul-smelling secretions, and has a fever, it may be a bacterial infection, and it is best to seek medical treatment as soon as possible.

What to eat after cesarean section is good for the wound

Zinc deficiency can reduce the function of fiber cells. Zinc is mainly found in foods such as fungus and kelp.

The lack of fat lipids can lead to impaired wound healing. Fish oil is rich in fatty acids, which have anti-inflammatory effects and are beneficial to wound healing.

Glucose is the main energy supplier for the human body, and sufficient energy supply is essential for wound healing. During the wound healing period, you can eat more sugar-rich fruits, which can increase sugar intake and provide sufficient vitamins.

Protein: Increasing protein in the diet can promote wound healing and reduce the chance of infection. Protein-rich foods include various lean meats, milk, eggs, etc.

Vitamin A can promote wound healing. It is mainly found in foods such as fish oil, carrots, and tomatoes.

Vitamin C can promote wound healing. It is found in various vegetables and fruits. Jujube and pepper are treasure troves of vitamin C.

Foods that are not conducive to wound healing include musk deer meat, fermented bean curd, onions, peppers, leeks, etc. because they can easily cause infection and are not conducive to wound healing.
