Buttock pain during pregnancy

Pregnancy is a happy thing. Every pregnant mother will be happy and afraid. What is scary is that there are many things to pay attention to during pregnancy, and if you are not careful, it may cause physical discomfort. Especially as the belly gets bigger and the baby grows faster, it is easy to put a burden on the lumbar spine of pregnant women, which can easily cause back pain. Long-term backlog of lumbar spine can easily cause bone pain in the buttocks. So what should we do?

Why does the bone behind the buttocks hurt when pregnant?

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.
