Back pain anyone?

Question

So I had some back pain during pregnancy that was caused by my hips being off. I had emergency c section (not rushed just do to pre eclampsia) so I know my core muscles are still weak and still healing from the spinal injection. I’m going to see a women’s health physio to check my stomach muscles then my chiropractor to have my alignment checked. I’m sure it’s all normal but I can’t take it anymore 😭
Anyone else experiencing the same? Any advice?!

Answer

My hips were at an angle and I was putting 10 more pounds on one of my legs as I walked. Seeing a chiropractor for 4 months now and I feel great. My hips are aligned now and I still go for weekly or monthly alignments.
Going to start massages soon as well (breastfeeding takes a toll)

Answer

I am going to PT and an OMT. This is my second PT because the first one did a little too fast and post partum hormone muscles are super sensitive. I didnt have a c section, tho. After my 6 week PP check I was approved to do planks and light exercises with a focus on repetition and not weight. My abs were separated by a finger and a half at the time. After a month and a half of planks my abs were mended but the rest of my body was freaking out. Hip pain, shoulder pain (from shoulders compensating for hip during one exercise), knee pain, etc... found a PT that will go SLOW with exercises knowing I still have relaxin in my body and knowing I have cranky muscles. That coupled with OMT to help alignment and some periodic massage for pain management. I am feeling better but it is definitely taking some time.
