Pain in inner thigh root at 38 weeks of pregnancy

When a woman begins to become pregnant, her body will undergo many changes. These changes will continue to exist until she gives birth to her baby. And as the pregnancy progresses, the changes that occur in the pregnant woman will continue to change. At 38 weeks in the late pregnancy, when the baby is about to be born, many pregnant women will feel pain on the inner thigh root.

Pain in inner thigh root at 38 weeks of pregnancy

After pregnancy, it is mainly caused by the continuous enlargement of the uterus, which causes the round ligaments that extend from the left and right sides of the uterus to support the uterus to be stretched. The round ligament is connected to the left and right thigh roots, so you will feel pain in the thigh roots, which can be divided into bilateral pain and unilateral pain. In addition to "pain in the groin", patients also say "pain in the genitals", "pain deep in the genitals", and "pain in the vagina". These can basically be identified as "pain in the groin", so the causes are the same.

The only way to get rid of the pain is to endure until the end of delivery. You can try walking slowly or walking and resting, etc. Increased pain may indicate an inguinal hernia or orthopedic problem. Pregnancy may also be the first time a person has had the disease before. If you find that you have persistent pain, you should go to the orthopedic surgery department for treatment, and be sure to inform the doctor in advance that you are pregnant.

As an expectant mother, you should maintain a good attitude, a happy mood, go out for more walks, and in the later stages of pregnancy you should supplement calcium and get more sun exposure. These are all very beneficial and important for the health of both the pregnant woman and the child. Expectant mothers should also take good precautions, follow the doctor's advice, and be prepared to welcome the arrival of a new life.

Mitigation methods

1. Place a small pillow between your legs when you sleep.

2. When turning over in bed and moving your feet and hips, try to move them in parallel and slowly.

3. If your physical condition allows, you can reduce the pressure on your joints by swimming.

4. Stand with your legs symmetrically.

5. Avoid sitting astride.

6. When you get up in the morning, try to sit down and get dressed.

7. Apply cold compress by placing an ice pack on the pubic area.

8. Wear flat shoes. The soles of pregnant mothers' shoes should be soft and comfortable. Avoid wearing hard-soled shoes with heels to prevent unstable center of gravity and increased pain.

9. Place a lumbar pillow behind your back when sitting.

10. Get a lower back massage.

11. Avoid lifting heavy objects.

12. Constrain the pelvis: Use an elastic band with a width of 25-30cm to constrain the pelvis to increase the load-bearing capacity of the pelvis. The upper edge of the band should not be higher than the pubic symphysis to avoid compressing the abdomen and affecting the growth and development of the fetus. The tightness of the band should be based on what the pelvis can tolerate, while not seriously affecting the venous return of the lower limbs.
