A member asked:
Is it possible to give birth naturally when having hip arthritis ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Assuming the joint can fully open, you should,have no problem (other than local pain) with birth positions. Discuss the prospect of local injections to control the pain with your obstetrician , allowing a better experience. In the meantime try doing stretching the hip while in hot water to keep muscles pliable. Good luck
