Patient's question:
I am 28 weeks pregnant. Why do I feel abdominal pain when lying flat and standing, but not when lying on my side? Is this a symptom of preterm labor?Doctor's answer:
??????Hello, during the early stages of pregnancy, some abdominal pain is physiological, meaning it is a normal reaction caused by pregnancy. However, some pain can be pathological. If you experience abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy, especially pain in the lower abdomen, you should first consider whether it might be a pregnancy complication. Common complications include threatened miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy. If the symptoms are not very obvious, you can wait a few days to see if they improve. If the symptoms are more severe, you should go to the hospital for relevant examinations.
