Treatment

alt
Conservative treatment:
With a small postpartum diastasis, it is possible to attach physical activity and "pump" it. With significant degrees, such treatment is contraindicated. After childbirth, it is recommended to wear a bandage.
alt
Surgical treatment:
In cases of significant muscle divergence or when conservative methods are ineffective, surgery may be required to restore the normal anatomical position of the muscles. Most often, doctors suggest performing an abdominoplasty to restore the normal appearance of the abdomen.
