Female right side waist pain

Women often feel back pain, which is not a good sign for women, because back pain is where our kidneys are located. If our kidneys are malfunctioning, it will affect our urinary system and detoxification function. Moreover, the kidneys are a very important organ for us. When there is a problem, the kidneys will become weaker and weaker, and may fail. So what is the reason for the dull pain on the right side of the waist of women?

Low back pain refers to pain on one side or both sides of the waist, including the spine. It occurs in both men and women, but is more common in women. According to statistics, patients with low back pain as the main complaint in gynecological outpatient clinics account for about 10% of all visits. The common reasons are as follows:

1. Lumbar muscle strain: Women who have been engaged in standing operations for a long time, such as textile, printing and dyeing, hairdressing, and sales work, have weakened ability to stretch their lumbar tendons and ligaments due to continuous standing. Excessive lactic acid may accumulate locally, inhibiting the normal metabolism of the lumbar muscles and causing low back pain due to lumbar muscle strain. Frequently carrying heavy objects puts too much pressure on the waist, which can easily lead to scoliosis, lumbar muscle strain and low back pain.

2. Urinary tract infection: Because the female urethra is short and straight, and the external opening of the urethra is close to the anus, Escherichia coli often parasitizes. In addition, due to the physiological characteristics of women, the urethral opening has a greater chance of contamination. If hygiene is neglected, urinary tract infection is likely to occur. Low back pain is mostly caused by acute or chronic pyelonephritis, which manifests as distension and pain in the lower back and radiates along the ureter to the perineum in severe cases. In addition to urinary tract infections, urinary tract stones, tuberculosis and other diseases can also cause low back pain.

3. Reproductive organ diseases: Women’s reproductive organs go through menstruation about 400 times in their lifetime, and also bear the missions of pregnancy and childbirth; some women also experience abortions, sterilization operations, etc. Therefore, the incidence of reproductive organ inflammation is high, such as salpingitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, etc. These inflammations are prone to complications such as low back pain. Retroversion and retroflexion of the uterus are also one of the causes of low back pain in women. Serious reproductive organ diseases such as uterine fibroids, cervical cancer, and ovarian cysts can cause compressive involvement of low back pain.

4. Women who suffer from rheumatism and rheumatoid arthritis are often attacked by wind, dampness and cold during menstruation, delivery and postpartum period, which causes bone spurs in the spine and induces low back pain. If the waist has been sprained, it may develop into a herniated disc, causing severe back pain and even affecting the flexion, extension and rotation of the spine.

5. Fatigue during pregnancy and the postpartum period During pregnancy, as the fetus grows gradually, the ligaments of the pregnant woman's lumbar and pelvic joints relax. At the same time, the weight of the uterus also increases with the growth of fetal age, causing the body's center of gravity to move forward. In order to maintain body balance, the waist is often straightened forward. If you do not pay attention to rest, it is easy to cause back pain. During pregnancy, the fetus needs sufficient nutrients such as calcium and phosphorus for development. If the dietary intake is insufficient, it can cause osteoporosis and decalcification in pregnant women, and can also cause low back pain. Excessive postpartum bleeding, premature labor, excessive fatigue, and cold can also cause low back pain.

6. Lumbar spine diseases are more common in elderly women. With the increase of age, the symptoms of lumbar nerve compression will also increase. Pseudospondylolisthesis caused by degenerative diseases is a common disease, which can easily cause lumbar spinal stenosis, compress the spinal cord and nerve roots, lead to low back pain and radiating pain in the lower limbs, and is often caused by vertebral collapse fractures due to osteoporosis. Osteophyte formation in the elderly can cause spinal stiffness and can also lead to persistent low back pain.
