In fact, this is also a normal phenomenon. Due to the increase in body size, the bearing capacity is all on the feet. Female friends move back and forth with a big belly all day long, which does put a certain amount of pressure on their feet. Therefore, pregnant women are very hard. We should not put too much pressure on ourselves. As long as we check that everything is normal in the body, we should not worry too much. Now let’s take a closer look at the specific solutions to foot pain in pregnant women. Calcium deficiency during pregnancy may cause numbness in the hands and feet. If a pregnant woman experiences intermittent pain, numbness, tingling or burning sensation in one or both hands, this may be related to compression of the median nerve, the so-called "carpal tunnel syndrome." This syndrome is characterized by pain or paresthesia in the skin of the wrist in the distribution area of the median nerve, mainly decreased or loss of sensation in the thumb, index finger, and middle finger, accompanied by movement disorders, resulting in loss of fine motor skills of the fingers. Symptoms may be triggered by swelling of the hands or by excessive extension or flexion of the wrist. The hormones secreted during pregnancy, especially relaxin, can cause the fascia, tendons, ligaments and connective tissues to soften and relax, while also compressing the nerves, thus causing the above symptoms. Generally no treatment is required, and the symptoms gradually ease and disappear after delivery. If numbness and pain are severe, the arm can be elevated and a small wrist splint can be used to immobilize the arm. In addition, adequate rest and the use of painkillers can relieve symptoms. Oral diuretics and local blockade are also effective. It is recommended that you measure your blood pressure and urine routine to see if you have gestational hypertension and take calcium supplements in time. You can also put two pillows under your feet before going to bed, and make sure they are padded up. This will also help relieve your foot edema in the later stage. It is best to soak your feet in warm water before going to bed, and then massage and knead them. The above is the solution to foot pain in pregnant women that I would like to introduce to you today. I hope it will be helpful to you. Pregnant women need proper exercise, but they should not overwork. Only if you are healthy can your child be healthy. Don’t think too much about other things and don’t put too much mental pressure on yourself. Only in this way can you give birth to a healthy baby. |
