What is pubic symphysis diastasis during pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Pubic hair area, getting up and walking on the hallway. A bit of pain.

Doctor's answer:

The pubic symphysis diastasis refers to a soft tissue injury disease where minor displacement occurs at the fibrocartilaginous joint of the pubic symphysis on both sides of the anterior pelvic due to external force, leading to symptoms such as widened distance between the pubic symphysis, vertical misalignment, local pain, and difficulty lifting the lower limbs.
Medical Advice: Pubic symphysis diastasis during pregnancy is caused by hormonal changes that loosen the ligaments around the pubic symphysis. In this case, even slight external force can result in pubic symphysis diastasis. If you have already given birth, you can ask your doctor to perform manual reduction or traction reduction.
