What are some ways to relieve period pain?

Some girls have poor physical constitution or thin endometrium, so they are prone to abdominal pain during menstruation. Although this problem does not seem very serious, if it is not treated in time, it may lead to serious consequences such as infertility. So, what are the effective ways to reduce menstrual pain? Let’s take a look at it together below.

1. Warm up your body

① Develop the habit of soaking your feet, of course with hot water, even in summer. The benefit of hot foot bath is that it can expel the cold from the body at a faster speed. The ducks know first when the river water is warm in spring, and the feet of a woman know first when her belly is warm.

② Keeping your body warm will speed up blood circulation and relax your muscles, especially the spasmodic and congested pelvic area. Drink more hot water or brown sugar water. You can also place a heating pad or heat pack on your abdomen for a few minutes at a time.

2. Replenishing Qi and Blood

① To replenish qi and blood, eat red meat, especially beef, which is warming and rich in iron.

② Red dates, longans, and brown sugar water are three auspicious treasures for replenishing qi and blood, but people with internal heat should eat less of them. After eating them, the skin will become particularly dry, acne will appear, the stool will be dry and hard, etc. In addition, people with dampness in the body should avoid eating red dates!

Three: Open the meridians

① Acupressure: The feet contain some acupressure points that are connected to the qi pathways in the pelvic area. There are acupressure points in the depressions on both sides of the ankles. Gently pinch with your thumb and fingertips, and move up along the Achilles tendon to the calf muscle. After finishing the right foot, switch to the left foot and continue pressing each foot for a few minutes.

② Take a mineral bath: Add 1 cup of sea salt and 1 cup of sodium bicarbonate to a tub of warm water. Soaking for 20 minutes can help relax muscles and relieve menstrual cramps.

Well, after reading the introduction above, I believe you already know what methods can help improve menstrual pain. People with menstrual pain should pay attention to their diet. Even if they are not in the menstrual period, they should not eat too much cold and irritating food, as this will cause cold air to accumulate in the body, and naturally cause pain during menstruation.
