These days it is  normal for a woman to experience or have back pain after pregnancy or you can say lower back pain, but we often do not know how to get rid of those pains. In a conversation with Obs and Gyn Dr Bharat Bhushan, we think we have got the idea of helping you do that.

Here how the conversation goes..

When you are a new mother and having your best life, you need to take care of certain things. Such as the proper and right way to breastfeed, the right way to sleep and rest your body on, the right way to sleep.

An expanding uterus alters your posture and weakens abdominal muscles, thereby putting extra pressure and strain on your back. Gaining weight during and after pregnancy is normal, but the extra weight taxes your muscles and joints. Joints and ligaments are usually affected by hormonal changes as well. Women who have long and difficult labor may be affected even more because of the toll it takes on their bodies. Caring for a baby around the clock can cause strain to your back and surrounding muscles. Mothers tend to do a lot of hunching over while breastfeeding. They also do a lot of bending over to pick up children and other objects. This can strain the upper back and neck muscles.

As per doctor bharat bhushan you may experience many complications such as lower back pain or shoulder pain. You should always practice good posture by sitting and standing straight up, and pay attention to your body position when breastfeeding.

Don’t lift any heavy objects, and always crouch and bend your knees when picking up your baby. Take good care of yourself by learning relaxation techniques to ease tension and stress. A warm bath or massage can do wonders for your sore muscles and aching back. Medication, physical therapy, or alternative treatments may also provide pain relief.
