Will my neck become sore during pregnancy? What should I do?

Pregnancy will bring various pregnancy reactions. As the fetus is constantly developing, the physical discomfort caused is also a relatively normal phenomenon, which we call the "gestation period." So will your neck feel sore during pregnancy? What measures should you take if your neck feels sore? Let’s take a look at it together below.

(1) Pay attention to the correct posture of your head and neck, and lean forward, lean back, and rotate left and right 1-2 times a day for 10 minutes.

(2) Maintain a good sleeping posture. It is best to use a soft, ingot-shaped pillow to maintain the physiological curvature of the cervical spinous process.

(3) The height of the pillow should be about 10 cm. Shizhibao’s newly launched patented product, the neck pillow, is specially designed for people with cervical problems. It mainly provides care and physical therapy at the same time.

(4) When working, maintain a comfortable posture without raising or lowering your head. When working for a long time, you should move your head and neck every hour to allow the neck ligament muscles to get proper rest.

(5) Avoid straining your neck when looking up at TV; it is best to keep your neck at eye level. These measures can not only prevent cervical spondylosis, but also prevent the recurrence and aggravation of cervical spondylosis.

(6) Strengthen the neck and shoulder muscle training at ordinary times. During breaks or after work, do flexion, extension and rotation exercises of the head and upper limbs. This can not only relieve fatigue, but also develop muscles and increase toughness, which is beneficial to the stability of the cervical spine and enhances the ability of the neck and shoulders to adapt to sudden changes in the neck.

(7) Keep your neck and shoulders warm, avoid putting heavy objects on your head and neck, avoid excessive fatigue, and don’t doze off while riding in a car.
