Nobody wants a surgical birth, but it happens and in many cases it is necessary for a safe delivery.
Nobody wants pain, digestive issues, incontinence, or weak abdominal muscles either but sadly, these symptoms can follow birth by Cesarean section.
I don’t generally endorse classes connected to paid treatment, but I know a lot of mothers who have suffered through difficult recoveries after being sectioned. That’s why I wanted to let you know about a free upcoming class on scar treatments that can help mitigate scar pain and other uncomfortable issues following surgical birth. According to Dr. Sierra Storm, facial adhesion is the cultprit:
“We often think of scars as occurring on the surface of the skin, but scar tissue also forms underneath the skin,” she explains on announcing the class. “This can cause a fascial adhesion — tiny threads of connective tissue that attach from the surface of the scar onto the body structures below it. When this happens with c-sections scars, it can restrict motion and cause significant issues, including urinary and digestive changes, a weak core, and persistent pain.”
The C-Section Scar Solution class will take place April 11 at 11:30 PST. To register, click here.
My hope is that those of you experiencing scar pain after surgical birth will glean information and hope from the conversation.
