During menstruation, women have weaker physical resistance and are prone to discomfort. Menstruation is a physiological phenomenon that every woman experiences and cannot be avoided. So, how can I relieve lower back and stomach pain during menstruation?
1. During menstruation, abdominal pain and lower back pain are mostly caused by uterine coldness, which leads to the accumulation of qi and blood in the body, causing dysmenorrhea. Suggest drinking more ginger and brown sugar water, and strengthening the warmth of the waist and abdomen to alleviate the condition. Women can also rub their stomachs with their hands or apply hot compress to their lower abdomen with a hot water bottle, which can effectively relieve pain. During menstruation, it is important to avoid eating cold, raw, and stimulating foods. You can use methods such as soaking your feet in mugwort leaves to relieve pain.
2. During menstruation, every woman should ensure sufficient sleep, pay attention to rest, and avoid intense exercise that can worsen pain. If women have severe pain, they can also use traditional Chinese medicine to treat it. They can take some Chinese medicine to regulate blood and relieve pain, or use acupuncture and moxibustion to treat it. Women with lower back pain can rely on a small pillow, sit up straight, and lift their heads and chest. This firm posture can reduce the pain in the lower back and abdomen.
3. Women should eat more foods that are helpful in regulating qi and blood, and pay more attention to replenishing qi and blood. During special periods, women may feel a little irritable. They can watch TV or do other things to shift their attention and relieve pain.
