What Causes Tightness In Toes Of Foot During Pregnancy?

I am 36 weeks pregnant and over the past week have been having problems with the toes on my right foot (3rd and 4th). It feels like there are rubber bands tied really tightly at the base of each. It is really uncomfortable. What is causing this and what can I do to ease it?

Hi,

Pedal edema is very very common in pregnancy and this can cause this. Discuss with your OBGYN regarding some home remedies you can do.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
