What Causes Headaches After Delivery, and What Treatment Is Needed?

Hello,

Delivery ke baad maa ko sir dard hona hormonal changes, neend ki kami, dehydration ya thakaan ki wajah se ho sakta hai. Lekin kabhi-kabhi delivery ke baad headache high blood pressure ya spinal injection se judi problem ka sanket bhi ho sakta hai. Isliye sir dard ko nazarandaaz na karein, khaaskar delivery ke pehle 6 hafton mein.

What are the common causes of headache after delivery?

• Hormonal changes: Delivery ke baad hormones mein tezi se badlav hota hai, jisse headache ya migraine ho sakta hai.
• Neend ki kami aur thakaan: Baby ki dekhbhaal, kam aaram aur stress ki wajah se sir dard ho sakta hai.
• Paani ki kami aur bhookh: Paani kam peene, breastfeeding ke dauran fluids ki zaroorat badhne ya samay par khana na khane se headache ho sakta hai.
• Spinal ya epidural injection: Agar delivery ya C-section ke samay kamar mein spinal injection ya epidural diya gaya tha, toh uske baad khaas tarah ka headache ho sakta hai. Ismein baithne ya khade hone par dard badhta hai aur letne par kam ho sakta hai.
• High blood pressure: Delivery ke baad bhi blood pressure badh sakta hai. Postpartum pre-eclampsia naam ki gambhir condition delivery ke baad shuru ho sakti hai, chahe pregnancy ke dauran BP normal raha ho.

What should the mother do to relieve the headache?

• Paani aur anya fluids paryapt matra mein lein, khaaskar agar breastfeeding kar rahi hain.
• Samay par halka aur poshtik khana khayein.
• Jitna ho sake aaram karein aur parivaar se baby ki dekhbhaal mein madad lein.
• Blood pressure check karwayein, khaaskar agar headache naya, lagataar ya tez hai.
• Doctor ki salah ke bina painkiller ya koi anya dawa na lein. Breastfeeding ke dauran dawa lene se pehle bhi doctor se poochhein.
• Agar spinal ya epidural injection ke baad baithne par headache badhta hai aur letne par kam hota hai, toh usi din anaesthesiologist ya treating doctor se sampark karein.

Delivery ke baad tez ya lagataar headache kabhi-kabhi emergency ka sanket ho sakta hai. Inmein se koi bhi lakshan ho toh turant hospital ke emergency department mein jaayein:

• Achanak bahut tez sir dard ya zindagi ka sabse bura headache.
• Dhundhla dikhna, aankhon ke saamne chamak ya spots dikhna.
• BP 160/110 mmHg ya usse zyada hona.
• Chehre ya haathon mein achanak soojan, pasliyon ke neeche pet ke upar wale hisse mein dard ya saans lene mein dikkat.
• Bukhar ke saath gardan akadna, behoshi, confusion, daura ya sharir ke kisi hisse mein kamzori.

In lakshanon mein ghar par upchar karke intezaar na karein. Postpartum pre-eclampsia aur doosri gambhir problems ka jaldi ilaaj zaroori hai.

Wishing you and your family good health always.
