Swelling of the hands of pregnant women may be related to physiological factors, such as changes in hormone levels during pregnancy; it may also be related to pathological factors, such as anemia, hypertension during pregnancy and other diseases.
1. Physiological factors: it is common that the hormone level changes during pregnancy, which can easily lead to changes in the permeability of capillaries, which can cause water and sodium retention, resulting in the phenomenon of swollen hands during pregnancy.
2. Pathologic factors:
(1) anemia: if pregnant women suffer from severe anemia, hemoglobin decreases too much, which is easy to cause hand swelling. It is recommended to eat more iron-rich foods to improve anemia, which can help relieve swelling; and it is recommended to consult a doctor in time and use medication to correct anemia under the guidance of the doctor.
(2) High blood pressure during pregnancy: If the blood pressure of pregnant women rises, it is also easy to cause swelling. Because of the rise in blood pressure, poor blood circulation or circulatory system obstruction, will lead to swelling of the hands or limbs.
Therefore, if the abnormal phenomenon of hand swelling occurs during pregnancy, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time to find out the cause and treat the cause.
