Suggest Treatment For Glute Muscle Pain During Pregnancy

I am 40 weeks pregnant 1 day and I almost fell on black ice 3 days ago while holding my toddler. Luckily I didn t fall but tensed my body to stay upright which I particularly felt in my back. Since then, the right glute muscle is SO painful and tight that walking is even more challenging than just being so heavily pregnant. I have tried an ice pack for 20 mins here and there and a hot water bottle (this feels the best) on and off as well. Is there something more I can do to alleviate the muscle pain?

Hello dear,
I understand your concern.
Iam sorry for your condition.
In my opinion when you tried to balance yourself the gluteal muscle have gone into spasm.
The muscle spasm takes some time to get relieved.
Take rest.And continue hot fomentation.
Take panadol for pain.
Have a happy delivery.
Hope this helps.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
