Taking Everything Slow at Home

Written by Posted On Monday, 05 March 2018 11:59

Women are such amazing creations but for some reason, women are also shaped with a variety of different defaults or problems if I may call them so.

Why do I say this?

Well, it does not matter how good a woman looks after herself, there will always be something that causes problems, breaks or results in medical issues. Yet, thanks to all the technological advancement there are methods available to fix these issues as they arise.

There are many examples, however, in this article, I’m going to talk about taking things slowly at home, especially after having a Pelvic Floor Reconstruction. The reason for this is that I realized what an issue it can be for a woman after having such an operation just to keep your home in order.

For those who do not know what is a pelvic floor reconstruction is, here is a quick overview. The pelvic floor of a woman is found under her other organs such as the uterus and bladder. This floor can become weak, mostly after childbirth or due to other medical issues. As it weakens the floor will just give out under the organs resulting in multiple issues.

So, a woman requires a pelvic floor reconstruction to fix it. The pelvic floor is made up of muscle and the reconstruction assists to fix the muscles. Now, as with any other operation, there comes a time where you will basically not be able to do much and have to take everything slowly. For some women, this can be quite frustrating but is necessary.

 

There are basically two options you can look at after you have had a pelvic floor reconstruction.

Frist Option – This will be the easiest option. For this option, you can (whether you are living alone or have a partner) ask someone to stay with you until you are healthy and fully ready to take on your everyday duties again. The person looking after you can be a family member, like a mon, sister or husband, or it can be someone you hire. There are many home nurses all around the world that you can hire to look after you until you are fully recovered.

 

Hiring someone can be a huge thing as you need place trust in a stranger. Yet, these are professionals and in my opinion are less picky, irritated and full of nonsense when they have to do something than family. In general family member have many issues doing certain things, although, there are that one or two family members that will do anything for you. Thus, it’s up to you to choose someone or have someone you know assist you.

Your Second Option – Well, this one you may want to do before going for a pelvic floor reconstruction as the second option is to redesign your house. The aim of this is to try and make moving around easier. Think of it this way, you need a house ideally suited for older people, have you seen what some older people’s houses look like? Most houses built or modified for older people is full of different options to make it easier to move around.

 

Typically, older people need more assistance with bathing, cooking and other things which are quite similar to someone who has had a major operation. Like for instance, if your house has stair, you may consider sleeping in a room on the bottom floor, or you can always just get one of those seats that are attracted to the railing for moving up and down the stairs. Climbing stairs after a pelvic floor reconstruction are going to very painful and may even result in a tear from overstraining. You must remember that there are going to be stitches inside of you that requires time to heal.

In the bathroom, you should have steel pipes installed next to the toilet, in the shower and against the bath’s sides. These are handy to assist you in sitting down and getting up from the toilet, as well as getting in or out of a tub. You are going to be in a lot of pain, especially the first week or two and when you have to get up from the toilet you can use your arms to pick yourself up instead of applying pressure to your abdomen.

In the kitchen, you may want to use a stool to sit on while cooking or even doing the dishes. Your cupboards should be re-arraigned so that everyday items are easier to reach.

However, if you do not want to redesign your house, you should maybe look at renting another that has all these built in to assist you with your recovery or you could always book in at a nursing home for care until you are healthy. There are many businesses that will be able to apply these changes to your home within one day and if done properly, you will not even know that they were there.

If you are going for a major operation or have an elderly person living or coming to live with you, consider these changes as they can make life easier.
