What to do if your finger joints hurt during pregnancy

Various physical conditions of pregnant women during pregnancy are of great concern to people, because people are afraid that the problems of the pregnant woman's body may affect the baby in her belly. Among them, the most typical one is the pain in the finger joints during pregnancy, which occurs in many pregnant women. So, what should you do if you have finger joint pain during pregnancy? Let’s take a closer look below.

What causes pain in fingers, toes, heels and joints?

1. This is mainly caused by edema during pregnancy. Severe edema compresses the nerves and causes pain in the bones and joints. When I wake up in the morning, the pain is so severe that I feel like I can't open my fingers.

2. Calcium deficiency can cause muscle cramps and bone and joint pain, which is related to fetal development during pregnancy. During pregnancy, a large amount of calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D are needed. If these nutrients are not taken in enough and there is a calcium deficiency, it is easy to cause bone and joint pain and muscle cramps, especially at night when sleeping, the calf will cramp if you move a little.

Remedies:

1. Proper supplementation of vitamins and calcium requires proper supplementation of vitamin D and calcium starting from the early stages of pregnancy. The demand for various nutrients increases after pregnancy, so attention should be paid to appropriately increasing the intake of vitamins and calcium.

2. Pay more attention to rest and do appropriate activities at ordinary times. If it is winter, it is best for expectant mothers to wash their hands with warm water and raise their arms frequently to increase the return of venous and lymphatic fluid, which can relieve pain. At the same time, don't be too nervous. The pain will disappear naturally as the pregnancy ends.

The above is an introduction to what to do if you have finger joint pain during pregnancy. I hope it will be helpful for pregnant women. Pregnancy is a very important period. Pregnant women are very likely to have various problems at this time. When they are discovered, they should actively look for the cause and then take effective measures to solve it.
