Abstract

Acute pain is a common complaint in post-cesarean section patients due to incision tissue damage and post-surgical inflammation. Early mobilization is a non-pharmacological intervention that plays an important role in reducing pain intensity, improving circulation, and accelerating functional recovery. Methods: A case study approach was conducted on a post-cesarean section patient with acute pain. The intervention included extremity mobility exercises, position changes, sitting on the edge of the bed, and gradually light activity. Results: After early mobilization, which was carried out gradually from the first to the third day, the pain scale decreased from 7/10 to 4/10. The patient showed increased activity tolerance and mobilization ability, as well as increased extremity muscle strength to optimal levels. Education on self-monitoring of pain and collaborative analgesic administration were reinforced throughout the care. Evaluation showed that early mobilization effectively reduced pain intensity and increased patient participation in the recovery process. Conclusion: Early mobilization as part of post-cesarean section care has been shown to reduce acute pain after Caesarean section surgery and support functional recovery. The gradual implementation of early mobilization, integrated with pharmacological management, is highly recommended in post-cesarean section care practices to improve the quality of care and patient clinical outcomes.
