Suggest Treatment For Muscle Pull On Side Of Stomach During Pregnancy
I am 32 weeks pregnant and got yanked around by my horse yesterday and I feel like I pulled a muscle on one side of my stomach. Its constant pain not on and off like contractions. Tylenol is not helping. Is there anything else I can do to help? It hurts a lot when I get up and move around since baby is laying on that side.

Hello,
There are limited modalities to treat your sprain at this stage with pregnancy. I shall advise you to do warm fomentation with help of water bag over that area and avoid abnormal movements. You may also use an analgesic ointment for application.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mukesh Tiwari, Orthopedic Surgeon
