Many people choose to go to massage parlors outside to relieve their shoulder and neck discomfort. Menstruation is a normal physiological symptom for women. During menstruation, it is important to pay attention to certain precautions, such as preventing the body from catching a cold, to avoid any adverse effects on the female body. So, is it good to do shoulder and neck exercises during menstruation?
It is generally not recommended to do shoulder and neck massage during menstruation because there are many lymph nodes and acupoints in the shoulder and neck area. If women do shoulder and neck massage during menstruation, it may cause an increase in menstrual flow. Women have a lower immune system during menstruation, and when massaging, the shoulders and neck are prone to bruising, which may lead to symptoms of cold and soreness in women.
Women are not allowed to engage in sexual activity during their menstrual period, except for not doing shoulder and neck massages. Because during menstruation, women's private immunity and resistance may decrease. If sexual activity is carried out during menstruation, it will greatly increase the chance of foreign bacteria invading the private parts. So during menstruation, it is important to do a good job of cleaning your private parts.
Hot springs and sitz baths are also not allowed during menstruation. If the lower body is soaked in water for a long time, bacteria will pass through the vagina and enter the uterine cavity, leading to inflammation. Menstrual periods are also not suitable for vigorous exercise. If women engage in vigorous exercise during their menstrual period, they may experience menstrual disorders and other symptoms such as dysmenorrhea.
