Pregnancy related back pain is very common.
More than two-thirds of pregnant women experience lower back pain (LBP) and almost one-fifth experience pelvic girdle pain. This pain can interfere with work, sleep and overall well being.
Lumbar spine pain is felt in the lower back region and can sometimes refer pain into the buttock and down the leg.
Pregnancy related lower back pain can be aggravated by a variety of activities, such as sitting, standing, walking or bending. Pelvic girdle pain (PGP), may be felt at the back and/or the front of the pelvis and is often made worse by rolling in bed, climbing stairs and standing on one leg and walking.

- Pregnancy-induced lower back pain
- Pubic Symphysis Dysfunction
- Post-natal trauma
Pubic Symphysis Dysfunction (PSD) is a condition associated with pregnancy and childbirth, where the ligaments that keep your pelvic bone aligned become too relaxed due to an excess of hormones. This can make the pelvic joint unstable and often painful in the pelvic area, including pelvic pain radiating to the upper thighs and perineum.
This can occur in men and women due to pelvic trauma.
It is thought that lower back pain in pregnancy is related to altered posture with the increased lumbar lordosis (exaggerated curvature of the lower spine) necessary to balance the increasing weight of the growing baby, and inadequate muscle control of the core and muscles supporting the pelvis.
There are many factors contributing to pelvic girdle pain. If this is something you are suffering from, make an appointment today, you will not regret it.
