Pain in lower part during late pregnancy

Pain in lower part during late pregnancy

In the late pregnancy, due to the enlargement of the uterus, pregnant women will also experience various reactions. For example, in the late pregnancy, many women will have vaginal pain. This problem may be caused by the enlarged fetus and compression of the vaginal tissue, or it may be caused by varicose veins in the vulva. Below, I will introduce to you in detail the causes and solutions of lower back pain in late pregnancy!

1. Physiological reasons for pain in the lower part of the body during late pregnancy

This symptom may be affected in the late stages of pregnancy. As the fetus grows, the uterus also grows, which will compress the surrounding tissues, blood vessels, nerves, organs, etc. This may cause the vulva to become engorged and painful. It is recommended to take more rest and avoid long periods of walking and standing. In addition, go to the obstetrics clinic for relevant examinations as soon as possible.

2. Pathological Principles of Lower Pain in Late Pregnancy

Some women feel swelling in the vulva a few months after pregnancy, with local redness of the skin and severe pain in the vulva when walking. This phenomenon is clinically known as "varicose veins of the vulva". The uterus of a pregnant woman shoulders a heavy responsibility and requires a large amount of blood supply, which increases the blood flow in the pelvic veins and internal iliac veins, causing the pressure in the veins to increase, causing the thin-walled veins in the vulva and inner thighs to expand abnormally.

In addition, as the fetus grows gradually, the uterus also grows accordingly in the pelvic cavity, which can easily compress the veins and hinder blood return, causing congestion and leading to varicose veins. Furthermore, the concentration of estrogen in the blood increases rapidly during pregnancy, causing the venous walls to relax and resulting in varicose veins in the vulva. The key to preventing varicose veins of the vulva during pregnancy is to pay attention to hygiene during pregnancy. After becoming pregnant, women should avoid standing for long periods of time, especially in the later stages of pregnancy. Avoid wearing tight pants, shoes and socks. Do not approach heat sources or bathe in excessively hot water.

3. Precautions in late pregnancy

1. In the later stages of pregnancy, due to the accelerated development of the fetus, a certain amount of nutrients needs to be stored. Therefore, expectant mothers during this period not only need to supplement calories, but also need to pay attention to the supplement of nutrients such as high-quality protein, iron, calcium and vitamins. In the late pregnancy, expectant mothers due to the rapid growth of the uterus pressurize the stomach, so their food intake decreases. They can adopt a "small and frequent meals" diet, which can be increased to more than 5 meals a day.

2. The diet of expectant mothers should be varied to ensure rich nutrition. Do not take large amounts of supplements to avoid excessive obesity and the occurrence of macrosomia (pregnant women should not gain more than 15 kg during pregnancy).

3. After entering the late stage of pregnancy, couples should stop having sex as much as possible to avoid accidents to the fetus. If you must have sex, you must be moderate and pay attention to body positions, as well as control the frequency and duration of excitement. The movements should be gentle. The husband can hug his wife from behind in the posterior position.
