    Re: unable to sit

    Most likely is an SI dysfunction which will give you back pain, and some radicular type symptoms. Her mechanism of injury corresponds well with a rotation of the innominate especially with a predisposition of ligament laxity being pregnant. It will also limit walking and sitting. Ask the patient if it feels like they are sitting on a slope or a ball under one ischial tuberosity. I would try some muscle energy techniques to see if this helps.
