10 Causes of Sciatica
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Cause #9: Pregnancy
Pregnancy can be the best period in a woman’s life. However, these nine months are also accompanied by various health problems, even though the development of the baby is completely normal. If there was any problem with the spine before pregnancy, it may worsen during the pregnancy.
As the baby increases in size and weight, weeks after weeks, the gravity center of the pregnant women will move forward, which means that the curvature on the lower back will be increased. Often, this leads to nerve root irritation and sciatic pain. Also, the position of the baby inside the uterus can lead to sciatica.
