गर्भ पिण्डासन II

Knee Injury

Deep flexion or rotation at the knee can strain ligaments, meniscus, or cartilage, especially in a compromised joint.

Never push into pain; use a folded blanket under or between the knees and reduce the depth of the bend.

Back Injury / Back Pain

Spinal flexion, extension, or rotation under load can compress vertebral discs or strain the paraspinal muscles.

Place a folded blanket under the lower abdomen to reduce lumbar compression; limit the height of the lift.

Pregnancy

Deep twists, abdominal compression, and lying flat on the back can restrict blood flow or cause discomfort as pregnancy progresses.

Avoid lying on the belly entirely from the second trimester onward; practise on hands and knees or use a bolster with a cut-out under the abdomen.

Wrist Injury / Carpal Tunnel

Weight-bearing or extended wrist positions can compress the median nerve and aggravate inflamed tendons, worsening pain and causing numbness.

Rest on forearms rather than palms; keep the elbows directly below the shoulders.
