I understood your concerns, see this swelling may be due to extra pressure over joint and disc that is due water retention, body growth for development of baby. So these all changes happens due to weight gain durability pregnancy! Just after delivery of baby these changes reverse slowly,, go for mild warm up exercise like walking may reduce pain intensity.
