Causes of leg pain in early pregnancy

Leg pain in early pregnancy is a common symptom during pregnancy, which is called osteomyelitis during pregnancy. Its common symptoms and causes are mainly the following:

1. Body aches

When the body stands normally, the center of gravity of the human body remains balanced up and down and left and right because each group of muscles and tendons coordinate with each other. During pregnancy, as the uterus gradually expands and the abdomen swells, the center of gravity of the human body shifts. In order to maintain the balance of the body front, back, left and right, the related muscles and tendons will inevitably increase the load and support. Therefore, the muscle posture changes from natural to intentional. Some pregnant women are prone to fatigue when they are often in this kind of support state, which leads to muscle pain.

Therefore, women should be aware of physiological and anatomical changes during pregnancy. Moderate exercise is necessary, but they should also rest more and try to avoid or prevent heavy physical work.

2. Arm pain

During pregnancy, some women experience abnormal sensations or pain in the tips of their thumbs, index and middle thumbs. The pain usually occurs at night and sometimes radiates to the elbows and shoulders, either on one side or on both sides. This disease is called carpal tunnel syndrome in medicine. It is mainly caused by physiological hypokalemia during pregnancy, which leads to local edema in the carpal tunnel of the wrist and nerve damage. The symptoms usually begin to improve in the late pregnancy and can be cured after the pregnant woman gives birth.
