Hi,
I understand your concern.
- look for abdominal cramps/ down wards pressure / increased vaginal discharge.. if it's there you need to see some other gynecologist for internal check up & advise.
- The sudden local pain in vaginal area in pregnancy on bending down & physical exertion.. It can be due to pulling/ stretching of ligament joining pubic bones.
You need rest. avoid bending/ exertion.
Pain killers ( ibuprofen- paracetamol ) over counter can be taken after food.Do not massage/ foment.
Tests to assess serum calcium & vitamin D should be done with supplements as per need.
Thanks.
