Abdominal pain during menstruation is something that most women have experienced, and those days are very unbearable. The stomach pain is unbearable and has a great impact on their lives and work. But abdominal pain during menstruation is a normal phenomenon, and we can only find ways to relieve it. What about abdominal bloating and pain on the first day of menstruation?
A few days before menstruation, abdominal distension and pain are more obvious, which is because the uterus is contracting, causing the shedding of the endometrium. If the pain is tolerable, there is generally no need to take medication, just pay attention to keeping the uterus warm. If you have a hot water bottle at home, you can use it to apply heat to your lower abdomen. Hot compress has the effect of promoting blood circulation and reducing swelling, which can effectively alleviate swelling and pain.
In addition to hot compress, drinking some brown sugar ginger tea in moderation can also improve bloating and pain symptoms. Ginger has the effect of dispelling cold and warming the uterus, while brown sugar can nourish qi and blood, soothe meridians and relieve pain, and effectively alleviate symptoms of abdominal discomfort during menstruation. And the recipe for making brown sugar ginger tea is also very simple, just like making brown sugar water normally, except adding a few slices of ginger.
If the swelling and pain are very severe, it is considered to be a pathological factor. In order not to delay one's health, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination in a timely manner after menstruation. For example, women with uterine fibroids, uterine coldness and other diseases may experience severe abdominal distension and pain during menstruation.
