Suggest Remedy For Loose Muscles In Tummy After C Section
Dear doctors I had my c section on March 5th along with uterus removal operation because of fibroid. Fibroid was around 6.5 kg and my baby was 2.5 kg. So I have a very loose tummy and looks like 3 months pregnant. I haven t used any belt till date, Can I use now? Will it still work? Please help me as I hear comments from visitors on my tummy and I feel very bad.

hi,
as mentioned by you, post c section surgery usually it is adviced to undergo physical therapy to regain the tone of the muscles back. As due to pregnancy there will be a stretching of the abdominal muscles and the skin as well. Performing precise exercise will not only help regain the tone in the muscles but also needed to take care of the spine. As most female suffer from back ache in later stages of the life.
Performing core stability, pelivc floor Strengthening, lower limbs Strengthening and spine Strengthening are of due importance. But exercise can only be implemented after the thorough assessment of the muscular system involved.
