Lack of awareness around their pelvic health is costing Indian-origin mums dearly, claims physiotherapist and pelvic health expert Nisha Kalia. She says that not only are the South Asian mums at a greater risk of a tear during childbirth, but also risk having long-term health issues, including urine leakage, joint and back pain, and other conditions which can impact their quality of life. Breaking the silence and having an open conversation about the pelvic muscles and women's health, she says, can go a long way. Listen to this podcast to know more.
