Many women experience dysmenorrhea during their menstrual period, but due to individual differences in constitution, lifestyle, and dietary habits, the specific manifestations of dysmenorrhea may also vary. Some women may also feel a pain on the left side of their lower abdomen while experiencing dysmenorrhea. So, what is the reason for the pain on the left side of their lower abdomen during dysmenorrhea?
When women experience lower abdominal pain, it is necessary to consider whether it is a gynecological problem, excluding periodic menstrual pain, gastrointestinal dysfunction, and other reasons, such as endometriosis, ovarian cyst rupture, ovarian or ovarian cyst torsion, pelvic inflammatory disease, uterine fibroids, ovarian tumors, ectopic pregnancy, abdominal or pelvic adhesions, etc.
If symptoms of lower left abdominal pain occur, they can be relieved through the following methods:
1. Relax the abdomen: When experiencing abdominal pain, try to loosen the belt as much as possible to ensure smooth circulation of stomach gas and make the abdomen feel more comfortable.
2. Pay attention to keeping warm: Drink some hot water or apply a hot water bag to your abdomen for a while.
3. Adjusting sleeping position: For people who experience persistent acid reflux at night, it is best to adopt a sleeping position with the right side above and the left side below, while raising the head.
There are many and complex causes of abdominal pain. If mild pain occurs, some painkillers can be taken. If acute abdominal pain occurs with other complications, patients should seek medical attention promptly at a professional hospital to avoid delaying treatment.
