After a woman becomes pregnant, her body's resistance will decrease, and various early pregnancy reactions such as nausea and vomiting may occur. It is common for pregnant women to experience lower back pain during pregnancy. So, what is the reason for left lower back pain during pregnancy?
During pregnancy, women's physical fitness weakens, their weight significantly increases, and their exercise volume decreases, which increases the burden on their lower back muscles. If overworked or stimulated by wind and cold, it can cause soreness and pain in the lower back muscles, which can occur on both the left and right sides.
So it is recommended that pregnant women should not sit at home for long periods of time while taking good rest. They should regularly go for walks, breathe fresh outdoor air, and have a reasonable diet. While supplementing nutrition, they should also control weight gain. This not only reduces the burden on the waist and back muscles, but also lowers the burden on the cardiovascular system and other important organs, which is beneficial for the health of pregnant women and the growth of fetuses.
If a pregnant woman has left hydronephrosis or kidney stones, due to the stones, urine in the kidneys cannot be discharged in a timely manner, causing hydronephrosis and resulting in left lower back pain. In addition, after pregnancy, in order for the baby to pass through the birth canal smoothly during delivery, the human body secretes a hormone that can relax the ligaments connecting the pelvis. This hormone also plays a role in relaxing muscles, increasing the curvature of the spine and making it prone to lower back pain.
