Patient's question:
I've been pregnant for a few months now, and I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain because I've been sitting for a long time. I'm asking the doctor if this is normal?Doctor's answer:
During pregnancy, prolonged sitting has again caused symptoms of lower abdominal pain, which may be related to the pressure on the abdomen from long periods of sitting. It's advisable to engage in appropriate exercise and closely monitor whether the condition improves. If the pain does not subside after exercise or rest, a thorough examination should be conducted to check for the possibility of preterm labor. Avoid prolonged standing and long periods of sitting. If abdominal pain symptoms reappear, it's important to promptly investigate the cause and then proceed with treatment to support the pregnancy.
