Concord, NC BACK PAIN ISSUES RELATED TO PREGNANCY: Osteoporosis & Degenerative Spondylolisthesis

Women with pregnancy-related Concord, NC back pain are welcomed at Pure Chiropractic. 76% of pregnant women in a new study described pregnancy-related back pain. Women who dealt with back pain before getting pregnant experienced an increased risk of pain during pregnancy. (1) For post-menopausal women on the whole there is a bigger risk of osteoporosis due to the fast bone loss attributed to estrogen reduction. Factors like obesity, age at menarche, breastfeeding, and parity also play a part. In a new study, the prevalence for osteoporosis was 35.24%. Particularly, the risk for post-menopausal osteoporosis increased with the number of children a woman had (higher at more than 4 children) and with the older age (highest at over 35 years) of the mother at the last childbirth. (2) Each full-term pregnancy ups the risk of developing degenerative spondylolisthesis by 22%. A hysterectomy doubles a woman’s odds. Why? It’s suggested that it’s due to low back pain and decreased abdominal muscles during and after pregnancy that establishes the spine for this condition. (3) One study points out the fact that weak abdominal muscles affect the stability of the spine and likely contribute to the condition known as degenerative spondylolisthesis. This condition is more common in women. (4) Pure Chiropractic gently treats and eases pain of spondylolisthesis much to the liking of our Concord, NC chiropractic patients!
