Common Causes of Pregnancy-Related Pain
At DuPont Physical Therapy in DuPont, WA, our dedicated team of professionals specializes in treating a variety of pregnancy-related pain conditions. We are committed to helping patients navigate the path to optimal health and vitality. Here are some of the most common pregnancy-related pain conditions we address:
Muscle Separation (Diastasis Recti)
Diastasis recti, or the separation of the abdominal muscles, can occur during pregnancy, causing a muscle imbalance and contributing to back pain.
Prolapse
Pelvic organ prolapse occurs when pelvic organs such as the bladder, uterus, or rectum descend into the vaginal canal, causing discomfort and pressure.
Stress Incontinence
Pregnancy and childbirth can weaken the pelvic floor muscles, leading to urinary incontinence with activities such as coughing, sneezing, or exercising.
Symphysis Pain
Symphysis pubis dysfunction (SPD) causes pain in the pelvic area due to excessive movement of the symphysis pubis joint.
Postural Changes
Shifts in your center of gravity during pregnancy can lead to pain as your body adjusts to accommodate the growing baby.
Hormonal Changes
Pregnancy hormones, such as relaxin, increase joint laxity, causing instability and pain in the pelvis and lower back.
Weight Gain
The natural weight gain associated with pregnancy puts additional stress on the spine and pelvis, leading to discomfort and pain.
Our comprehensive approach to pregnancy-related pain management focuses on individualized treatment plans tailored to your specific needs. Contact us today to schedule an appointment and start your journey towards a more comfortable and enjoyable pregnancy experience.
