Probably a long shot but I am just curious if anyone has dealt with osteoarthritis during pregnancy? I was in a bad car accident 2 Years ago and now suffer from end stage osteoarthritis in my ankle. I was scheduled to have a fusion this summer but since I got pregnant that’s not happening. My OB basically blows this issue off, it has been discussed and he is aware but it’s kind of like yea we know you’re in pain but you’re pregnant so suck it up. I have been off pain meds since I found out I was pregnant at 3weeks and after the 1st trimester I was no longer allowed to take my arthritis medicine. Any remedies for my constant swelling would be greatly appreciated!!!

This is a month ago

This is tonight- the swelling just seems to be getting worse.
