TheRY - THE REASON WHY?
During pregnancy and post pregnancy your hands and wrist can suffer from pain and weakness.
- About 35% of women experience a tingling, burning feeling, numbness or pain in their fingers in the later stages of pregnancy (carpal tunnel). Increased fluid in your body during pregnancy may cause swelling in your wrists and hand, which can put pressure on the nerves through to your wrist and fingers.
- Post pregnancy up to 50% of women experience thumb and wrist pain for other reasons (Dequervian's Tenosynovitis). Activities from caring for your baby can result in a sudden increase in load on the thumb and wrist which can result in swelling & weakness.
