Pregnant, Left Palm Burning Sensation. Ferrous Fumarate Prescribed. Advise?
Hi I'm 32 weeks pregnate . I woke up last night to a feeling like the palm of my left hand was on fire . This also happened again this afternoon . I noticed where the burning was coming from it looked like it was pulsating . I was prescribed iron tablets called ferrous fumate three days ago . Could this be a side effect . Kind regards Michelle
dnt worry this is common in pregnancy with many,it generally happens in third trimester due increase in blood volume , ur heart need to pump more to give blood to ur fetus ,may increase in pressure in vein .do get panic ,take iron tablet and vitamin follic acid mainly ,it will prevent neural tube defect of ur baby,stay happy..njoy the process of being mother
It is unlikely to have any relation to the iron supplement...
If it is due to pregnancy, it is generally on both sides...
It has probably a local reason to account for - get yourself examined by an Internist
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
