Postpartum urinary retention can be cured?

Postpartum urinary retention is usually cured.

Postpartum urinary retention is caused by temporary damage to pelvic muscles and nerves during childbirth. If the patient's condition is mild, massage and pelvic floor muscle exercise can be used to improve pelvic floor muscle function. At this time, urinary sphincter function is restored and urinary retention will gradually improve. If the patient's condition is severe, pelvic floor muscle function is obviously damaged and physical therapy cannot improve, urinary catheter can be inserted to promote urine excretion. Further acupuncture, moxibustion and other ways to improve local nerve function, regulate metabolism, can also gradually improve.
