My shoulders and upper back have been aching a lot lately, im in 7th month now. Sitting or lying down both feel uncomfortable. Any simple things that helped u all without medicines?
I got shoulder pain mostly from bad posture and sleeping side ways too much. A warm compress and gentle rolling of the shoulders helped me. Now feeding the baby it acts up again honestly, so a good pillow support really matters.
Mild shoulder pain is usually posture, warm compress works. But I'll add, if its sudden sharp shoulder tip pain along with belly pain or dizziness, please dont wait, call ur doctor. That combination needs checking.
Sitting at desk all day made mine worse. I started taking small breaks to roll my shoulders and changed my chair support. Small changes but it actually helped a lot.
Beta hot water bag pe shoulder sek lo, aur thoda warm oil se halki maalish, it eased mine in old days. But agar zyada ho toh doctor ko dikhana, mat ignore karo. Rest bhi zaroori hai.
Gentle neck and shoulder stretches helped me a lot, but only the ones my doctor okayed. Sitting with proper back support also reduced it. Dont do anything heavy or strain it, light movement is the key.
