How to repair the rectus abdominis

In general, rectus abdominis repair can be treated under a doctor's guidance through methods such as exercise training, using abdominal binders, electrical stimulation therapy, abdominoplasty, and rectus diastasis abdominal wall reconstruction. Specific analyses are as follows:

1. Exercise Training

Exercises such as sit-ups, diaphragmatic breathing, planks, and knee-lifts in a kneeling position can strengthen the transverse abdominal muscles, promote internal muscle tightening, and aid in the recovery of the rectus abdominis.

2. Using Abdominal Binders

Abdominal binders provide support and pressure to the abdominal muscles, helping muscle recovery and shaping, thus promoting repair and tightening of the rectus abdominis.

3. Electrical Stimulation Therapy

Electrical stimulation therapy uses electric currents to stimulate the rectus abdominis, causing passive muscle contractions that enhance muscle strength and tone. The typical reference cost for this therapy is 2,000–9,000 yuan per course of treatment. Relief is usually observed 7–10 days after treatment completion, although side effects such as tingling or itching may occur.

4. Abdominoplasty

Abdominoplasty involves surgically tightening the anterior sheath of the separated rectus abdominis muscles and possibly removing excess skin and fat to achieve repair. The typical reference cost is 2,000–15,000 yuan per procedure. Improvement is generally seen 14–30 days after surgery, although possible complications include skin laxity and infection.

5. Rectus Diastasis Abdominal Wall Reconstruction Surgery

This surgical procedure brings the separated rectus muscles back together and reconstructs the abdominal wall to restore its normal shape and function. The typical reference cost is 5,000–40,000 yuan per procedure. Relief is usually observed 20–30 days after surgery, although potential side effects include wound pain and ulceration.

If necessary, it is recommended to visit a正规 hospital and undergo these procedures under the guidance of a qualified physician to ensure effectiveness and safety. After surgery, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and diet is essential to promote recovery of the rectus abdominis.
