Diastasis Recti occurs after pregnancy when the abdominal muscles diverge. This is a normal reaction to the stretching of the abdomen during pregnancy.
disc prolapse
Treatment for diastasis recti includes targeted exercises to strengthen the abdominal muscles, especially the rectus abdominis. A physical therapist or specialized training may be helpful. Avoid exercises that could increase pressure on the rectus abdominis muscles. In severe cases, surgical correction may be considered. Individual advice from a doctor or physiotherapist is important in order to choose the right treatment.
