What should middle-aged women do if they have lower abdominal pain?

When people reach middle age, various body functions begin to decline and the human body is no longer as energetic as when they were young. Especially for women after menopause, various physiological indicators of the body have declined a lot. At this time, many women will often feel symptoms of lower abdominal distension and pain. Next, I will introduce to you the problem of lower abdominal distension and pain in middle-aged women.

Pain is a feeling usually caused by noxious stimulation and accompanied by unpleasant emotional experience. The stimulation can come from the outside and act on the body surface. Such as being hit by an external object or being exposed to extreme temperatures, this feeling is accurately located and uploaded to the brain through free nerve endings via specific nerve channels. The stimulation can also originate from within the body and be uploaded through the afferent part of the visceral nerves. Its location is relatively vague. In adults, pain is often caused by psychological reasons without obvious and direct material causes. Generally speaking, pain is easily affected by moods such as attention, suggestion and expectation; a person's past experiences and the current situation can bring great variations to pain.

Women experience lower abdominal distension and pain before or after each menstrual period, and may even feel nausea, vomiting, and be unable to rest normally. This is called dysmenorrhea in traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that when menstruation comes, the Chong, Ren, Qi and blood change drastically, and the blood sea goes from full to overflowing, and from overflowing to empty. At this time, if there is a predominance of cold or heat, deficiency or excess in the physical constitution, it is easy to be invaded by external evils, and with the interference of organic factors, the Chong, Ren, Baogong, Qi and blood will not run smoothly and lack nourishment, resulting in pain due to lack of nourishment.

Suggestions: Keep warm during menstruation, avoid cold, raw food, cold stimulation, and prevent cold evil invasion; pay attention to rest, reduce fatigue, strengthen nutrition, and strengthen physical fitness; try to control violent mood swings, avoid strong mental stimulation, and keep a happy mood; usually avoid excessive sexual intercourse, and absolutely prohibit sexual intercourse during menstruation

Having said so much, in fact, in addition to the precautions mentioned above, the most important thing is that everyone must be aware of their physical health. Once you feel very unwell, you should seek help from a doctor as soon as possible to prevent problems before they happen.
