Title: EFFICACY OF GINGER EXTRACT ON PAIN RELIEF FOR FIRST NORMAL POSTPARTUM WOMEN
Brief Summary: Introduction A common problem in women after childbirth is bleeding (5-8 percent). This is one of the leading causes of maternal death in Thailand. The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage is approximately 1-2 percent of the births. A second problem is infection after birth which is a leading cause of illness and death of the mother. Incidence of infection after childbirth is 1-2 percent of women in developed countries and 5-10 percent of postpartum women overall. Staphylococcus aureus bacterium is found in the reproductive system of 5-9 percent of women. Perineal wound infections cause perineal pain. Thirdly is the problem of insufficient milk in foreign countries, mothers breastfeeding for less than 12 months total 94.7 percent. The fourth problem is difficult urination after vaginal delivery or 6 hours after removing the catheter in surgical cases. It is a common and important problem from 1.7 to 17.9 percent. The above problem causes infection and inflammation pain.

It is suggested that sensory signals can only pass through the cells in the substantia gelatinosa when the gate is open. When the gate is closed, sensory information is blocked, and this forms the basis of a kind of physiological pain relief.

In relation to the 4 basic life elements of earth, water, wind and fire, the maternal body is lacking wind. This causes the fire to also decrease and the element of pain results. It becomes important to restore balance by stimulating blood circulation and herbal treatment is desirable to help the fire of the blood to speed the element of wind through the body.
