Round Ligament Pain

S.M.A.R.T Choice, SMART Health!


A mom has to endure a lot during pregnancy and chiropractic care can help in many ways.  It’s enough that her back may hurt quite a bit, but it’s another while during the second trimester, she starts to feel jabbing and sharp pain on one or both sides of her abdomen.

There are two round ligaments in your pelvis, one on each side of your uterus.  As the baby and uterus grow, the round ligaments thicken and stretch to give support.  In turn, this causes occasional spasm-like pains that are uncomfortable but mainly harmless.

Sometimes the pain kicks in when you exercise. Other times it may be when you sneeze or cough.  There are a number of factors that can trigger it.

Thankfully, chiropractics is your friend in need.  Not only will they carefully adjust your body but they will pay attention to the area’s that need massaging and therapy.  We guarantee you will be walking out the door thanking that you came in.

Pregnancy can be hard enough, so why not make your pathway easier and give us a call at (301) 585-2225 and we’ll get you in as soon as we can.
