During pregnancy, women may experience various pregnancy reactions, but because everyone's physique is different, the symptoms that may occur are also different. Some women may experience soreness in their calves during pregnancy, but it is unclear what the cause is. So is the pain in the calves of pregnant women about to grow taller?
If pregnant women have symptoms of calf pain, it is generally not related to their height. The reason for this symptom may be caused by venous reflux disorders, as pregnant women often exhibit lower limb swelling, especially in the ankle and calf areas, due to changes in hormones in the body and inferior vena cava reflux disorders, which can cause pain in the calf area.
It may also be caused by catching a cold, such as not covering oneself with a blanket at night, which can lead to leg pain caused by catching a cold. However, it may also be caused by overwork, such as prolonged walking or standing, which can also cause leg pain. If only mild pain symptoms occur, you can gently massage with the help of family members to relieve them.
If it is caused by venous reflux obstruction, it is recommended to lie down and rest in bed as much as possible during pregnancy, while raising the affected limb to facilitate the resolution of edema. Due to special reasons during pregnancy, it is not recommended to use medication. Therefore, it is recommended to use massage, microwave, and baking lamps to help relieve pain.
