Hi!. I had a c section delivery. Now it s 4 month 20day has finished.I have pain in my hip to whole left side leg. I can t put pressure on my left leg.Sometimes I can t walk and I can t stand quickly. Even I sneezing or cough I can t bare the pain what is the reason of this pain and what should I do?
By your history and description, the possibility of sciatica is more likely. It is an inflammation of a sciatic nerve.
You might be having left sided sciatica which is causing all the symptoms. It is common after pelvic surgeries like caesarean section.
Physiotherapy in the form of stretching, ultrasound, exercise and warm water pad application is beneficial. So consult a physiotherapist and discuss all these.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
