Summary

This study looked at whether starting gentle exercises and walking soon after a C-section helps lower pain. 56 women who had planned C-sections were split into two groups: one did early bed exercises and walking, the other got standard care. Pain levels were measured with simple scales. The goal was to see if early movement speeds up recovery and reduces discomfort.
