The most prevalent problem in women after giving birth to a child is backache. The aim of this article is to decide the occurrence of back pain 1-2 months postpartum and to indicate the aspects including epidural anesthesia for pregnancy and delivery that may incline to it. This study was planned to approach the widespread postpartum back ache with and without epidural analgesia among pregnant women. In the recent era, families are not known about different delivery methods and their merits and de-merits and there was no way to discuss them on the subject.
2. Introduction
The most prevalent problem in women after giving birth to a
child is backache. The aim of this article is to decide the
occurrence of back pain 1-2 months postpartum and to indicate
the aspects including epidural anesthesia for pregnancy and
delivery that may incline to it. This study was planned to
approach the widespread postpartum back ache with and
without epidural analgesia among pregnant women. In the
recent era, families are not known about different delivery
methods and their merits and de-merits and there was no way to
discuss them on the subject.
3. Objective

By searching different databases PubMed database, Medline,
Medline In-process and Embase and low back pain , pelvic

4. Conclusion
Low back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal
complaints of pregnant women. Low back pain during
pregnancy may be the result of mechanic, hormonal and other
factors associated with changes of the body. Literature clearly
indicates that low back pain may be disabiling, limiting every
day activities, impacting productivity and should not be
ignored and left untreated.
Treatment option include exercising, physiotherapy,
stabilization belts nerve, stimulation, pharmacological
treatment , massage, relaxation and yoga depending on the
case.
Given the high incidence of low back pain during
pregnancy, larger studies are needed, in order to test
prevention and treatment options in broader populations and
contribute to improving woman’s health.
5. Prevalence
80% of women suffering from Low Back Pain claim that it
affects their daily routine and 10 % of them report that they are
unable to work rates range from 25 % - 90%, will most studies
estimating that 50% of pregnant women will suffer estimating
that 50% of pregnant women will suffer from LBP. 1/3 of them
will suffer from severe pain, which will reduce their quality of
life. The majority of womens are affected in their first pregnancy.
6. Reasons
This topic has been discussed in various populations. However, the
subject remains controversial and the etiology is poorly understood.
One of the most frequent mechanism suggested, is associated with
the mechanical factors, due to weight gaining during pregnancy, to
the increase of the abdominal sagittal diameter of the consequent
shifting of the body gravity center anteriorly, increasing the stress
on lower back.
Studies suggest that on interior shift is associated with public
syphilis problems.
A negative active straight leg raise test (ASLR) is a positive PPPT
may be interpreted has an increased activity of the pelvic floor
muscles in order to compensate for the impaired pelvic stability.
According to some initial pilot data, weakness of gluteal medius in
strongly related to the presence of Low Back Pain during pregnancy.
7. Another theory suggests that LBP during pregnancy, which
worsens at night, may be the consequence of the expanding
uterus putting pressure on the vana cava causing venous
condestion in the pelvis is the lumbar spine.
Sciatica is a rater rare clinical entity of LBP during pregnancy,
appering in only 1% women.
Sciatica may be the result of herniation or dulging of an
intervertebral disc, causing nerve compression.
Rare causes of sciatica should also be deemed when there is no
evidence of disc disease.
In a small group of women the persistent pain dureing
posipartum period may be secondry to osteitis condensars .
8. Diagnostics
The diagnosis of LBP during pregnancy is the differentiation
between Lp and PGP is usually based on symtomps due to the few
existing diagnostic tests. The subjectivity of the pain is the disability
caused by back pain makes the evaluation more difficulty.
Due to some present diagnostic lests the diagnosis of LBP, LP and
PGP during pregnancy can be differensiate depending upon thir
symptoms. Evaluation become more difficult due to the pain
subjectivity and backpain ailment Sabino Jelall LP and PGP can
distinquish by phusical analysis because these entities exist

by Patrick-Febere test. Many other test are used to differensiate
LP from PGP. A clinical test ASLR perfomed in the supine
