65%以上的孕婦會(huì)經(jīng)歷腹直肌分離

When you picture someone who is pregnant, you might think of glowing skin, shiny hair, and a baby bump. What you don't see is what's happening just beneath the surface of their skin, as their muscles work to accommodate a growing belly. Somewhere between 65% and 100% of people who go through pregnancy experience diastasis recti, a condition where the connective tissue between the rectus abdominis muscles pull apart and leave behind a gap (via Verywell Family).

當(dāng)你想象一個(gè)懷孕的人時(shí)，你可能會(huì)想到皮膚發(fā)光，頭發(fā)閃亮，還有一個(gè)小肚子。你看不到的是她們皮膚表層下面發(fā)生了什么，因?yàn)樗齻兊募∪庠谶m應(yīng)不斷增長(zhǎng)的肚子。65%到100%的孕婦會(huì)經(jīng)歷腹直肌分離，即腹直肌之間的結(jié)締組織拉開并留下一個(gè)縫隙(Verywell Family)。

The expansion of the uterus during pregnancy pushes on the abdominal muscles and begins to stretch out the connective tissue that holds the abdominal muscles together. When the distance between the rectus muscles becomes abnormally separated, a noticeable ridge or bulge might appear on the abdomen (via Healthline Parenthood). Many people might not notice any signs of diastasis recti until after their pregnancy. Signs of the condition can include poor posture, lower back pain, constipation, and bloating. Difficulty lifting objects and general abdominal weakness and instability can also be postpartum signs of diastasis recti. After pregnancy, a bulge in the abdominal area caused by diastasis recti may cause someone to look like they are still pregnant.

懷孕期間子宮的擴(kuò)張擠壓了腹肌，并開始拉伸連接腹肌的結(jié)締組織。當(dāng)直肌之間的距離變得不正常分離，腹部可能會(huì)出現(xiàn)明顯的隆起。許多人可能直到懷孕后才注意到直腸分離的跡象。癥狀包括姿勢(shì)不良、腰痛、便秘和腹脹。舉物困難和一般腹部無力和不穩(wěn)定也可能是產(chǎn)后直肌分離的體征。懷孕后，腹直肌分離引起的腹部隆起可能會(huì)讓人看起來像仍在懷孕。

Other factors that contribute to diastasis recti include having a large baby, being pregnant with multiples, a second or subsequent pregnancy, or being pregnant over the age of 35 (via Verywell Family). People who suspect they may have diastasis recti can see a doctor to be examined and diagnosed by looking at the amount of abdominal separation above the navel, below the navel, or both. Self-checks for diastasis recti can be done by lying down and feeling for a gap between the abdominal muscles above and below the navel. Diastasis recti can be treated in a number of ways that can decrease the gap between the abdominal muscles or close it completely.

導(dǎo)致直肌分離的其他因素包括:生一個(gè)大嬰兒，多次懷孕，第二次或再次懷孕，或懷孕年齡超過35歲。懷疑自己可能患有直肌分離的人可以去看醫(yī)生，通過查看肚臍上方、下方或兩者的腹腔分離程度來進(jìn)行檢查和診斷。自我檢查直肌分離可以躺下，感受肚臍上下腹部肌肉之間的間隙。直肌分離可以通過多種方法來治療，這些方法可以縮小或完全閉合腹肌之間的間隙。

Physical therapy and specialized exercises can help with increasing abdominal muscle strength (via Mayo Clinic). Some exercises can do more harm than good, so it's important to have professional guidance before embarking on an exercise routine to fix diastasis recti. While physical exercise may help improve the abdominal gap, diastasis recti cannot always be fixed by exercise alone. Surgery might be an option to repair the muscles if weakness in the core is causing pain or keeping someone from living a normal life.

物理療法和專門的鍛煉可以幫助增加腹部肌肉的力量。有些運(yùn)動(dòng)弊大于利，所以在開始一項(xiàng)常規(guī)運(yùn)動(dòng)來修復(fù)直肌分離之前有專業(yè)指導(dǎo)是很重要的。雖然體育鍛煉可能有助于改善腹間隙，但直肌分離不能單靠運(yùn)動(dòng)來固定。如果肌肉核心部位的虛弱導(dǎo)致疼痛或妨礙人們正常生活，手術(shù)也可能是修復(fù)肌肉的一種選擇。
