Diastasis recti

Diastasis recti

The rectus abdominis muscle is located on both sides of the midline of the abdomen, consisting of two muscles, left and right, connected by the linea alba in the middle. Normally, the distance between the two sides is within two finger-widths. It is an important component for maintaining core stability, protecting abdominal organs, maintaining intra-abdominal pressure, and participating in physiological functions such as defecation, childbirth, and vomiting. Diastasis recti refers to the separation of the two bellies of the rectus abdominis muscle, which commonly occurs in pregnant and postpartum women. The main symptoms include abdominal muscle weakness, low back pain, pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence, and a bulging of the midline of the abdomen after childbirth.
