Patient's question:
During pregnancy, it's always particularly uncomfortable, and morning sickness is also very severe. Could you please explain why hands may swell in the second trimester of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Pregnant women often exhibit varying degrees of edema, such as in the lower limbs, feet, and face. This is generally normal and will naturally disappear after delivery. However, if the edema is severe and accompanied by symptoms like dizziness, palpitations, shortness of breath, high blood pressure, or reduced urine output, it should be a cause for concern.Generally, doctors will advise women with signs of gestational gynecological conditions to rest in bed and avoid sexual activity. Additionally, patients should create an environment conducive to emotional stability and stress relief. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
