Causes and prevention of finger joint pain in pregnant women
How is finger joint pain in pregnant women? There are three reasons for finger joint pain in pregnant women, and there are also some preventive measures.

Endocrine hormone increase

During pregnancy, due to the increase of endocrine hormones such as estrogen and prolactin in the body, the elasticity and strength of muscles and tendons often decrease to varying degrees, and the tension of ligaments near the joint capsule and joint also decreases, causing joint relaxation and pain in finger joints and wrist joints, similar to the symptoms of aseptic arthritis.

gestational edema

During pregnancy, blood pressure rises, especially in the middle and late stage, the burden on the heart, lungs and kidneys is too heavy, causing edema, which is more obvious locally, especially in the limbs.

Delivery preparation

The pregnant woman's body prepares for delivery, and endocrine relaxes the joints and ligaments, which is called bone suture by the people. Therefore, in the third trimester, not only the hands, waist, legs, feet and pelvis will feel uncomfortable, but this is normal. If there is anything unusual, or which part is particularly uncomfortable, you should consult your doctor in time.

Joint warmth

When the temperature drops, it is necessary to add clothes in time to avoid the knee joint from catching cold. In addition, try not to touch cold water, and warm water washing is the best. If you have arthritis, you can wear knee pads to prevent recurrence.

Exercise joints

Finger bending: Bend your finger, use the other hand to bring the fingertip as close as possible to the palm of your hand, and then push the whole bent finger down to the palm of your hand, so that the dorsal side of the finger joint extends.
