| description | Back pain or discomfort is common during pregnancy.
It may be experienced during any point of pregnancy;
even as early as the onset of pregnancy. However,
the condition occurs most commonly later in the
pregnancy as the weight of the baby increases. Berg
and colleagues noted that about half of the 862 antenatal
women developed some degree of low back
pain. Seventy-nine women had severe enough low
back pain stopping them to continue working and
requiring referral to orthopaedic surgeon. Thus this
condition should not be taken lightly- due to how
common it is, and the fact that it can become
severe.Women who are most at risk for back pain are
those who are overweight or had back pain prior to
pregnancy |
