Extreme pain in hips and legs

luckeygurl · September 2017

I'm 14 weeks pregnant and experiencing extreme pain in my hips and left leg. Its an burning sensation in my outer left thigh and like a pulled groin on my in the inner thigh. Then today at work I got a tingling feeling down my leg and partial numbing in my leg from the knee down. I work on my feet carrying heavy things getting up and down a lot cause I'm in the trades and hoping someone might be able to tell me a stretch or way to sleep or what I can take to ease the pain.

Sounds like it could be related to your sciatic nerve.
I'd go ahead and give the doc a call.
Pregnancy comes with all sorts of aches and pains so no one here can tell you what's going on. Doctor would be your best bet.

Agree it sounds like nerve pain. Talking to a doctor should be the way to go. There are specific yoga classes for sciatic pain if that's the case.

Just a reminder though that we still have a symptoms weekly thread that this sort of thing can go in! https://forums.thebump.com/discussion/12716354/symptoms-week-of-9-11#latest

Hope it gets better.

Hi and welcome. Please introduce yourself in the Introductions thread as we have no idea who you are. Also as @antoto pointed out we have a weekly Symptoms thread where this question would have been more appropriate.
Sorry you are going through this, you should tell this to your doctor and look into seeing a physical therapist. A friend of mine went through something similar during pregnancy and PT helped alleviate much of her symptoms.

Get adjusted if you are open to that. Chiropractors are wonderful during pregnancy.

I'm not an MD, but it sounds an awful lot like sciatica. I hope you feel better soon.
