Williamson BACK PAIN ISSUES RELATED TO PREGNANCY: Osteoporosis & Degenerative Spondylolisthesis
Women with pregnancy-related Williamson back pain are welcomed at Apple Country Chiropractic. 76% of pregnant women in a recent study reported pregnancy-related back pain. Women who dealt with back pain before getting pregnant had a higher risk of pain during pregnancy. (1) For post-menopausal women on the whole there is an increased risk of osteoporosis due to the fast bone loss attributed to estrogen depletion. Factors like obesity, age at menarche, breastfeeding, and parity also contribute. In a recent study, the prevalence for osteoporosis was 35.24%. Specifically, the risk for post-menopausal osteoporosis rose with the number of children a woman birthed (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 increases the risk of developing degenerative spondylolisthesis by 22%. A hysterectomy increases twofold a woman’s odds. Why? It’s proposed that it is because of low back pain and reduced abdominal muscles during and after pregnancy that establishes the spine for this condition. (3) One study points out the fact that weak abdominal muscles influence the stability of the spine and likely play a part in the condition known as degenerative spondylolisthesis. This condition is more common in women. (4) Apple Country Chiropractic gently treats and alleviates pain of spondylolisthesis much to the liking of our Williamson chiropractic patients!
