Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Could you please tell me what could be causing some pain in my calf muscles at six months of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this phenomenon may be due to calcium deficiency, which is caused by insufficient calcium intake during the second trimester of pregnancy. It is recommended to supplement with calcium. You can also soak your feet before bed or use some soft items like pillows or blankets to prop up your feet slightly, which can help reduce leg cramps.Before the 28th week of pregnancy, you can perform the knee-chest exercise to correct the. Do it once in the morning and once in the evening, each time for 10 minutes, and continue for a week. The can be corrected with this posture: lie on a hard board with your chest and knees on the ground, your buttocks raised high, your thighs perpendicular to the bed, and your chest as close to the bed as possible. However, make sure to loosen your belt before starting.
