Location map of sciatica in pregnant women

Because the popularization of knowledge about sciatica is not very timely, it is inevitable that some people still do not understand sciatica. Pregnant women are prone to various problems due to their lack of understanding of sciatica. For example, the pain location and treatment methods of sciatica are all topics that pregnant mothers are more concerned about. So, where is the location of sciatica in pregnant women? What are the treatments?

It should be noted that sciatica is more common on one side and develops rapidly. The patient first feels soreness in the lower back and stiffness in the waist, or a few weeks before the onset of the disease, there is a transient pain in the lower limbs when walking and exercising, which then gradually intensifies and develops into severe pain. The pain starts from the waist, buttocks or hip bone, and spreads down along the back of the thigh, popliteal fossa, both sides of the calf and the outside of the dorsum of the foot. On the basis of the continuous pain, there are bursts of aggravated burning or pricking pain, which is more severe at night. Because sciatica is highly diverse and each pregnant woman's condition is not necessarily the same, it is difficult to accurately say where the actual location of sciatica is in a pregnant woman.

The treatment methods are as follows:

1. Rest in bed: Especially in the early stage of lumbar discectomy, rest on a hard bed for 3-4 weeks. Some patients' symptoms will improve spontaneously.

2. Medication treatment: Analgesics and B vitamins can be helpful for repair.

3. Acupuncture therapy: Acute symptoms can be treated with low-frequency therapy, ultraviolet radiation, etc., while chronic stages can be treated with medium and short-wave therapy and alternating current iodine ion introduction.
