How to relieve buttock pain during pregnancy

It is not easy to be pregnant for 10 months. In the middle and late stages of pregnancy, the baby develops very quickly and the burden on the lumbar spine is increased a lot. At this time, pregnant mothers' bodies will produce a hormone called pubic relaxant, which can decompress and relax the pelvis and surrounding joint ligaments, making prenatal preparations for the smooth birth of the baby.

Of course, the decompression and relaxation of joints and ligaments will naturally weaken the stability of the waist of pregnant mothers. At this time, the rapid development of the baby also puts pressure on the sciatic nerve. If the pressure is too great, it can easily cause sciatica, buttocks pain, back and thigh pain.

Pregnant mothers who have had lumbar muscle sprains before should pay more attention. Once the body is overloaded, lumbar disc herniation is likely to occur. Lumbar disc herniation will compress the sciatic nerve and cause sciatica. At this time, you should seek medical attention in time to relieve the pain.

The following are some good ways to relieve buttock pain in pregnant women:

1. Pregnant mothers with sciatica can use a hot towel or hot water bottle to apply heat to the painful area for about half an hour, and the pain will be greatly relieved.

2. Soaking in warm water every day can also relieve pain.

3. Generally, do not let the pregnant mother help move things. If there is no one around, the pregnant mother should try not to bend over, but squat directly to move things.

4. When sitting, it is generally recommended to sit on a soft lift chair and adjust it to a suitable height. You can also put a cushion on your waist, back, and neck to make pregnant mothers more comfortable and relieve pain.

5. Don't stand or sit for too long. After working for about an hour, you should stretch your muscles for 10 minutes, shake your arms gently, and stretch your limbs.

6. Interested pregnant mothers can also use yoga to relieve physical discomfort.

7. Under normal circumstances, sciatica will usually recover on its own after pregnant mothers give birth to their babies. If massage is added, the effect will be better and faster. It's time to give your dear husband a chance to show off.

8. As mentioned above, for pregnant mothers who suffer from sciatica caused by lumbar disc herniation, it is best to use ultrasound examination instead of X-ray.

9. Avoid using drugs that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. Although they can relieve pain, they will affect the baby's development. For the healthy growth of the baby, pregnant mothers should use them with caution.

10. In order to avoid worsening of the disease, caesarean section is recommended. If pregnant mothers have severe early symptoms, they need to consider whether to terminate the pregnancy.

11. Choose a hard bed when sleeping, and do not use the treatment method of wearing a waist belt, which will restrict the baby's movement and is not conducive to his development.

12. It is recommended to supplement calcium. Try to choose calcium tablets specially for pregnant women, one tablet a day. Go out more often to exercise your muscles and bones, and get some sun to promote calcium absorption. You can also drink an appropriate amount of milk every day, about 250ml. It is best to continue taking calcium supplements until one year after giving birth.

13. The sleeping posture should also be correct. It is best to sleep on your side with your legs bent and, if possible, put a pillow between your knees to improve the pain. When getting up, get up slowly and don't sit up immediately to reduce damage to your buttocks. Sleeping on your side can also protect your spine.
