What Causes Dull, Constant Pain Between Ribcage And Hip Bone During Pregnancy?
My daughter is experiencing pain on her right side in her back between her rib cage and hip bone. It started as a throbbing, sharp pain about once a week for the last month and has now increased to constant, daily pain and causing her to bend over to compensate. She HAS had kidney st o especially in the past. She is 33, not over weight, and is about 15-16 weeks into pregnancy of second child.
as pregnancy advances, the size of the uterus also increases in size that causes a stretch of round ligament of the uterus to accommodate the growing fetus. pain is usual in the right because of the dextrorotation of the uterus.
