As the gestational age increases, the fetus grows day by day, and the daily activities of pregnant women often feel more and more inconvenient. After all, the body will gradually become clumsy as the gestational age increases, and there may also be some pain symptoms in the lumbar and caudal vertebrae. So, how can pregnant women relieve tail bone pain?
1. Pain in the coccyx of pregnant women is mostly a normal physiological phenomenon after pregnancy. Usually, symptoms will gradually disappear after childbirth. Tail vertebrae pain often occurs in the middle and late stages of pregnancy. As the fetus develops and grows, the uterus expands while compressing the nerves in the abdominal cavity, which can cause nerve pain in the tail vertebrae area. If the tailbone pain is not particularly severe, medication is not necessary. Tailbone pain can be relieved by changing body position, resting more, and sitting as little as possible.
2. When sitting normally, pregnant women should try to straighten their waist and minimize contact between their tailbone and the chair surface. You can also purchase a circular air cushion that can be placed on your buttocks while sitting, which can help lift the coccyx and relieve pain during pregnancy.
3. Normally, you can also moderately self massage the coccyx area, which can promote local blood circulation and alleviate pain symptoms. In addition, it should be noted that some women may have insufficient calcium in their bodies during the middle and late stages of pregnancy, which can also lead to pain in the lumbar spine, joints, and coccyx. Therefore, it is recommended to supplement calcium appropriately, which can also help alleviate pain.
