In daily life, even a slight injury to the body can cause pain. If the pain is divided into several levels, then the pain of a scratch is generally around level 2. The pain level for women giving birth is 12, which is the highest limit of pain. So let's learn together what level 12 pain and dysmenorrhea belong to?
Dysmenorrhea occurs during menstruation and the pain persists until the end of menstruation. Dysmenorrhea belongs to levels 4 to 7 within the 12 level pain. The feeling of dysmenorrhea is lower abdominal pain accompanied by bloating and blood clots. If the blood is expelled, the pain will be slightly relieved, and some pain may even be felt in the waist and thighs. When the pain is severe, the body will collapse and lose strength. So dysmenorrhea is classified as around level 4 to 7.
Many women think that dysmenorrhea is normal and do not seek treatment for it. Some women may feel that dysmenorrhea will improve after giving birth, but if it is primary dysmenorrhea, it needs to be treated. When experiencing dysmenorrhea, one should not take painkillers indiscriminately as it can have an impact on the body. Women should pay attention to keeping their stomachs warm when experiencing menstrual cramps, and temporarily avoid using cold water. They can apply a hot water bottle to their stomachs to relieve menstrual cramps.
The pain of dysmenorrhea is tolerable, although it does not harm health. If dysmenorrhea persists, it is necessary to seek medical treatment. Don't take painkillers when you feel pain. This won't treat dysmenorrhea, but instead can lead to abnormal health due to taking medication casually.
