Question

I have sacroiliac joint pain, and it gets worse when I am tired or exposed to cold in winter. I want to ask the doctor, will it be very painful for me to have a baby when I have sacroiliac joint pain? Will it be very painful to give birth naturally? I’ve heard that when women with sacroiliac joint pain are pregnant, their waist will be very painful, and it is not recommended to give birth naturally?

Answer

Based on your description, if you have sacroiliac joint pain that worsens during winter due to fatigue or cold exposure, will it be very painful for you to have a baby? Will giving birth naturally be very painful? According to your description, 1. Sacroiliac joint pain itself does not interfere with pregnancy; 2. When patients are in the acute phase of sacroiliac joint pain and need medication treatment, they should not become pregnant and should use contraception. After stopping medication for half a month, it is appropriate to deliver; 3. Women with sacroiliac joint pain have a longer pregnancy period, so they need to understand and treat it well before pregnancy to keep the condition stable, prevent the recurrence of the condition during pregnancy, and be unable to take medication treatment, only physical therapy can be performed.
