Prenatal Musculoskeletal Injuries Mooroolbark
Prenatal Musculoskeletal Injuries
Pregnancy is a time of profound change for a woman’s body, bringing both joy and physical challenges. As your body adapts to support the growing life within, it’s common to experience musculoskeletal discomfort and injuries.
Common Postnatal Musculoskeletal Discomfort & Injuries
These can include:
- Lower Back Pain: As your baby grows, the added weight and shift in your center of gravity can strain the lower back.
- Pelvic Girdle Pain: Hormonal changes can loosen the ligaments in your pelvis, causing pain and instability.
- Sciatica: The expanding uterus may press on the sciatic nerve, leading to pain that radiates down the leg.
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Fluid retention can increase pressure on the median nerve in your wrist, causing pain and numbness.
