What to do if pregnant women have symphysis pubis separation? Pay attention to rest

Women are great and happy when they are pregnant, but at the same time, the process of pregnancy is also very hard. Morning sickness often occurs in the early stage, and the body shape becomes out of shape in the later stage. It can be said that expectant mothers are often tossed around. For all kinds of pain, expectant mothers pay a very high price. However, some pregnant women will experience symphysis pubis separation, which will be even more painful. So what should pregnant women do if symphysis pubis separation occurs!

If pubic separation occurs, pregnant women do not need to be too nervous. Those with mild pain do not need treatment; those with obvious pain need to rest in bed, preferably lying on the left side, and it is best to sleep on a wooden bed; for a few patients with severe pain, in addition to absolute bed rest, they also need to use a wide cloth belt 15 cm wide and 30 cm long to make a circular bandage. If the fetus is too large, it is best to do a cesarean section to ensure the safety of mother and child. Once the fetus is delivered, as the level of relaxin decreases, the pubic symphysis closes and returns to its original state, and the pain disappears.

If you have just noticed the pain and it is not very severe, it may just be the normal widening of the pubic symphysis during pregnancy. In this case, try these methods to relieve it: take appropriate calcium supplements and rest in bed. You don't have to stick to lying on your left side, just lie in whatever position is comfortable for you. Don't walk too far or climb stairs. Try not to squat or lift heavy objects.

If it is very painful and the above methods do not work at all, then see a doctor, who may take these measures to treat it: Use a "pelvic correction belt". Local injection for pain relief. However, these methods can only control symptoms but cannot cure the disease. After all, there are fewer methods that can be used before the child is born. Another very important point is to try to reduce the psychological burden of pregnant women. Pubic symphysis separation will not hinder normal delivery, and the pain will gradually subside after giving birth, so don't worry too much.
