Description
Back and Pelvic pain in Pregnancy and Postpartum with Ankita Desai
Physiological changes during pregnancy can affect your muscles and joints.
During the 3 trimesters, there are significant changes to spinal curvature and pelvic orientations. These changes may or may not lead to things like back pain pelvic pain. Pre existing injuries may even flare up at this time.
