A member asked:
Is lower back pain a normal sign of early pregnancy? im almost 5 weeks pregnant.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Back pain: Yes. Rapid hormonal changes cause the ligaments and tendons of the lower back to relax and can lead to pain. Core muscle exercises will strengthen stomach and back muscles to help reduce the back pain. Discuss with your obstetrician the best options for treatment of the back pain.
