![default](/r/images/default.png)
Back pain might be due to number of causes
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
I understand your concern.
In my opinion back pain in pregnancy might be due to many causes:-
1) Back pain might be muscular origin due to excess strain sometimes in pregnancy.Here taking adequate rest and avoiding strain is important.It is commonly seen in pregnancy.
2) Back pain might be due to constipation.Constipation might be treated by taking high fibre diet,fluids upto 3 litres and laxatives.It is routinely seen in pregnancy due to progesterone hormone.
3) Back pain if associated with pain abdomen and spotting might be seen in abnormal pregnancy like abortion .
I suggest you to consult a gynaecologist and get an ultrasound done to know the status of pregnancy and rule out any abnormality.
For acidity avoid spicy diet.And take food in small quantities every 2 hourly.If severe antacids can be taken.
Take adequate rest and adequate fluids up to 3 litres.
Take paracetamol for pain.
If ultrasound is normal you need not worry mostly the pain might be muscular or due to constipation.
And treating them will subside the pain.
Hope this satisfies your query.
Feel free to ask any more queries.
Best regards...Dr.srilatha
