Distended Stomach After Previous Childbirth. Looks Like Pregnant. Having Back Pain. Suggestions?
I had my last child 7 years ago since that time my stomach has never gone back to how it should have. I get alot of lower back and upper back pain and if i am out i have to sit down and rest often before i can walk some more. People ask me if i am pregnant. Mind you I do look like i am 6-7 months pregnant. I dont know what to do, its been getting me down for so many years. I am a single mother of 40 years old. with two children 12 & seven years respectively.
Hi
thank you for sharing your problem.
It could be that your lower back has arched forward more than it should due to slippage of back bone called spondylolisthesis. So please get xray of your lower back and revert to me
thank you
regards
