Pain when urinating after c section
What Causes Pain with Urination after c Section?
The recovery from surgical childbirth can be painful, and pain when urinating is a common complaint. Cesarean section incisions are made very close to the bladder, so there can be some trauma as the baby is born. This is most often temporary and it usually heals during the six-week recovery phase. In some cases, there may be complications. This article covers the reasons you may feel some pain when you pee, symptoms you should report to your doctor, and things you can try to help ease your discomfort. Read further to learn more about this.
It is not uncommon to experience pain when you pee after childbirth. This happens more often in a vaginal delivery, but can also occur after a cesarean delivery. In most cases, pain when urinating is normal birth trauma that should go away as your body recovers from surgery. Some of the normal causes of pain with peeing include:
1. Urethral IrritationYou may have noticed after surgery that you had a urinary catheter inserted. This is so the bladder can be fully empty prior to starting surgery and keeping it from filling up during surgery. This will be left in until the anesthesia has fully worn off. After the catheter is removed, you may experience some irritation in the urethra when you pee. Some women report that it feels slightly similar to a UTI with burning, stinging, and pain.
2. Bladder SpasmsBladder spasms happen when the bladder muscle suddenly contracts, making you feel like you need to pee right away. This can cause pain when urinating after c section due to the bladder muscles being affected by the surgery and birth of your baby. Most women describe it as a “crampy” feeling just before and while they urinate. It may make you feel like you have to run to the bathroom right away. However, the cramping may persist while you are going and after you finish going pee.
If the pain doesn’t go away or gets worse, you may be experiencing a complication that needs to be addressed by your doctor. These include:
It isn’t uncommon to develop a urinary tract infection that may cause pain when urinating births. As many as 16 percent of new moms go through this after a cesarean. It is usually related to the urinary catheter they had to place for the delivery. Couple that with an epidural block for anesthesia which causes the urinary tract to go to sleep, and you have all the conditions for infection. This causes things like pain or burning when you pee, dark colored urine, sediment, and even fever. This condition does need treatment with antibiotics.
3. Bladder ProlapseChildbirth can cause your bladder to prolapse, and this can happen to moms who have had c-section deliveries. This is caused by changes to the muscles that hold up the pelvic organs. Late in pregnancy, hormones relax these muscles to get the pelvis ready for the birth. After you deliver, the muscles that hold up the organs tend to stay relaxed during the recovery period. This can cause them to “flop” over. Other symptoms include dribbling of urine, peeing when you sneeze, and pain when urinating. It usually clears up on its own, but in a few cases, surgical repair may be needed.
4. Bladder InjuryA vesicovaginal fistula can develop after a c section birth that causes urine to flow from a small hole between the urethra and the vagina. It is a result of surgery or infection after surgery and can cause foul smelling discharge, pain with urination, incontinence, and infection. While not common, if these do occur they need to be surgically repaired.
5.
AdhesionsAfter any type of abdominal surgery, adhesions can form in the pelvis. This is scar tissue that can cause the tissues to stick together. Adhesions may form on the bladder, urethra, or uterus, causing pain with urination. After surgery, your nurse or doctor can give you tips on how to prevent surgical adhesions. If they do occur, laparoscopic surgery can help remove them.
In the hospital, your doctor and nurses will be checking for signs of infection or complications before you go home. If you have pain when urinating after c section in the hospital, let your nurse know. Once you get home, you should contact your doctors office if you have:
- Fever over 99.0 ℉
- Pelvic pain with nausea and vomiting
- Foul smelling discharge
- Feeling the urge to pee, but can’t go
- Pain that doubles you over when you pee
- Dark, cloudy urine
- Unable to urinate
If your doctor isn’t concerned and you are early in your recovery phase, there are a few things you can do for comfort. Try these things:
- Place a pillow over your stomach. Sometimes pressure can help. When using the restroom to pee or have a bowel movement, try placing a pillow over your stomach and press in gently while you pee. This helps relieve pain and start the flow of urine.
- Use a rinse bottle. In the first few days, you may have burning pain that isn’t related to infection. Your nurse may show you how to use a “peri-rinse” bottle to soothe and cool the area after you pee. It also helps to put a bit of witch hazel in the water to help relieve inflammation down there.
- Drink extra fluids. It is easy to get dehydrated after childbirth, especially if you’re breastfeeding. This can make your urine thick and dark, which can burn. Make sure you get plenty of fluids in the days, weeks, or even months after you have a baby. This can also help flush out bacteria that could cause a urinary tract infection.
- Don’t wait to go. It is understandable that you’re busy with baby and your hands are full. Still, take the time to pee as soon as the urge hits and resist “holding it.” This can cause pain in the early weeks, and put you at risk for infection. This helps a lot to ease pain when urinating after c section.
I Couldn't Pee and Other Things I Didn't Expect After My C-Section
The actual surgical recovery was a cinch, but there were some super uncomfortable side effects I definitely hadn’t prepared for.
I had a scheduled cesarean section (aka C-section) at 38 weeks due to a pesky placenta situation. I was, of course, nervous for my first time in the operating room — and for major abdominal surgery, at that.
I was also anxious to meet my baby and see for myself — in real life and not on an ultrasound monitor — that he was just right.
Despite my fears, the surgery was a cinch. My placenta previa thankfully didn’t pose a problem during the delivery, and today the evidence of my incision is barely there.
And, as for my little boy, well, his 10 little fingers and toes are just delicious.
So aside from the mesh undies and post-op scar creams that other moms are always suggesting, I thought I was in the clear. Right? Wrong.
Yes, the actual surgical recovery was quick: I was walking around as soon as those horrid compression devices were stripped from my legs, and I was bounding up and down my stairs practically the moment I arrived home with my son — with only some Tylenol and Motrin to keep the occasional pain at bay. (Talk about stubborn new mom adrenaline!)
But there was C-section aftermath — super intense, although certainly not life-threatening, side effects — that I never fully expected. And they are, in fact, much more common than I thought.
I was warned about some post-op swelling, but I came home from the hospital larger — much larger — than I was during my entire pregnancy.
I felt like I looked roughly 20 months pregnant while already holding my newborn in my arms. I envisioned being able to easily button the cute pajamas I brought to the hospital, but instead I could barely tell where my legs ended and feet began.
Oh, and finding shoes to mash my feet into for my son’s bris 8 days after delivery caused a proper meltdown. (Hello, hormones!)
Anita Saha, MD, FACOG, notes that what I experienced is called postpartum edema — otherwise known as “the unspoken aftermath.” And, yes, to me it was just as jarring as it sounds, although apparently not uncommon.
“The cause of postpartum edema is directly related to what your body is programmed to do normally during a pregnancy,” explains Saha, a New Jersey-based obstetrician/gynecologist. “By the beginning of the third trimester, your blood has increased its plasma volume, without increasing red blood cells.”
That, she says, coupled with the dilution of albumin (a protein that keeps water in our veins) and the dilation of our veins themselves to increase blood flow to the placenta, causes swelling — especially in the feet, ankles, and legs, which due to gravity, have trouble getting blood back to the heart. These veins, she says, become “leaky.”
I wasn’t too swollen when I arrived at the hospital, but once I delivered, it really was like the weight in my abdomen dispersed throughout my body. That’s because, says Saha, all that extra blood in my uterus (that was once pressing down on the inferior vena cava and the veins in the pelvis) did actually spread into circulation and into those “leaky” veins… hence even more swelling.
Saha notes that while the aftermath can affect all types of deliveries, people who have C-sections sometimes experience more immediate swelling because they receive more IV fluids during the process. Lucky us!
While it seemed like an eternity, Saha says edema usually resolves in 7 to 10 days. When it finally did, it was like a literal weight was lifted.
As soon as I was given the go-ahead, I asked to have the Foley catheter that was inserted into my bladder before my C-section removed so I could move around and get my blood flowing.
I did, but my bladder apparently didn’t realize that it was supposed to work on its own.
Many hours and numerous trips to the bathroom later, I still couldn’t pee. Only after two attempts to reinsert the catheter (holy smokes was this painful), did my body kick into gear.
While I originally thought my extreme swelling was the culprit, Saha says this is usually due to the epidural or spinal anesthesia — which causes a relaxation in the bladder muscle and therefore an increase in bladder capacity.
Post-epidural urinary retention is the official term for this common post-delivery side effect.
This can occur despite having a Foley catheter inserted to help with constant drainage during a C-section and post-op. As Saha explains it, hospitals have protocols about when the catheter can be removed, usually after 12 to 24 hours.
But as she points out, “Despite protocols, individuals metabolize and clear the anesthesia in their body at a different pace. That means that some patients will have urinary retention because they are still experiencing the effects of the opioid medications in the epidural and/or spinal.”
It’s important to note, Saha says, that proper emptying of the bladder doesn’t mean dribbling or small amounts of frequent urination. Reaching this milestone means having a normal flow — and more communication with patients is needed to address this so they don’t have a problem later.
(Pooping is a whole other story that many new moms can tell. Are you worried your stitches will pop? Yes, yes you are.)
Perhaps I wasn’t sure if my abdomen even hurt after the surgery because the day I got home — so a little more than 72 hours post-op — I began developing a horribly painful and itchy rash across my midsection.
Which suddenly appeared on my lower back. And my upper thighs. Seemingly anywhere the surgical antiseptic (in my case, chlorhexidine) was applied.
And it lasted for more than a week.
I was literally walking around with ice packs secured by my underwear band to relieve the itchiness and additional swelling.
While I thought my case was an anomaly, Saha notes that chlorhexidine allergy isn’t rare.
“I also see allergies in the exact distribution of the adhesive tape that is on the surgical drape, so it looks like a band at the level of the belly button going around the sides. Some people also have allergies where the adhesive is on the inner thigh for the Foley catheter,” she explains.
“Unfortunately, it is impossible to predict who will develop an allergy when using a substance for the first time,” she adds.
I was reluctant to take anything for the discomfort because, well, I was a nervous new breastfeeding mom.
Saha advises topical hydrocortisone or Benadryl lotion for the reaction, but to avoid oral antihistamines and cold medications because they may drop your milk supply — which may not just naturally appear when your baby does.
Yep, I will write that again: Your milk supply might not just naturally appear when your baby does.
I was able to physically breastfeed my baby as soon as I was given the post-surgical green light. And he was a natural. He had a good latch. We got into a proper position. And he was getting all the good stuff colostrum provides.
But that was all he was getting, and I had to pump, pump, pump (starting on day 3 of my hospital stay) to make my actual milk come in.
It was exhausting and upsetting — and I felt guilty, like I was failing at the first task that I wanted to accomplish as a mom.
Finally, after several days of nonstop pumping and feeding (and a few bottles of supplemental formula later, thanks to our pediatrician’s guidance), our exclusive breastfeeding relationship began — and pretty much lasted that way for roughly 10 months.
Clearly, I was not alone.
“This is, unfortunately, the most common problem for all patients after delivery,” notes Saha. “It can take up to 5 days for the transitional milk — the white appearing milk — to come in after any delivery.”
And it’s the hardest for moms who’ve had a planned C-section. Why? “With vaginal delivery, natural oxytocin is released during the labor process that triggers the breasts to start the milk production process — in conjunction with the hormone prolactin,” explains Saha.
“It is true that the separation of the placenta from the uterus does cause hormonal shifts that transition your body into milk production mode, but it is also well known that this transition happens slower after a first time C-section,” she says.
“With a planned C-section, there is no preceding labor. These patients have the hardest time getting their breast milk to come in typically,” Saha explains.
Of course, there may be other post-op factors at work, and lactation consultants should be on hand to help patients — and not just with the technical aspects of breastfeeding. They should also make sure that new moms know that they’re not alone, that fed is ultimately best, and that supplementing with formula until one’s milk comes in (even if the goal is to exclusively breastfeed when it does) is just fine.
And new moms shouldn’t feel guilty like I did.
But, then again, bouts of mom guilt — as well as learning to roll with the punches starting at that miraculous moment you’re given your new baby to hold — is kind of like an initiation into motherhood.
