After many women become pregnant, they will find that their bodies undergo some changes, and each person's constitution is different, so the changes that occur will also be different. Some people may feel breast swelling, while others may feel abdominal swelling. However, some people may find pain under their armpits. So, what is the reason for armpit pain when pregnant?
If there is pain under the armpit after pregnancy, the first thing to observe is whether the skin is red or damaged. If the skin is damaged or red, it is likely to be caused by dermatitis. At this time, attention should be paid to keeping the area clean and dry, and the skin should be washed clean.
If the skin is not damaged or red, but there are local swelling symptoms, it is caused by the enlargement of the accessory mammary gland. This is mainly because after pregnancy, when the mammary ducts expand, milk will be secreted, and the accessory mammary gland will enlarge and cause pain.
There is no need to be too nervous in this situation, as it is a normal reaction after pregnancy. As long as you pay attention not to overwork, rest, eat as light as possible, avoid spicy, greasy, and stimulating foods, and maintain local dryness, cleanliness, and hygiene, this symptom will naturally alleviate and ease after the baby is born. After weaning, the phenomenon of breast enlargement will also disappear on its own.
