Tips To Treat Sciatic Nerve Pain During Pregnancy






  • The simplest remedy is to lie on your side, opposite of the pain. This may help relieve the pressure on the nerve.
  • Avoid heavy lifting and minimize standing for long periods of time. If you experience pressure while standing, try elevating one foot and resting it on something. Swimming may also ease discomfort.
  • You may experience relief by applying heat or cold to the troubled area.
  • Your health care provider may recommend acetaminophen to relieve the pain.
  • It is important to contact your health care provider if the pain becomes constant, or increases in severity or frequency.
