What are the causes of waist pain in girls?

Lower back pain is a common condition for many women. It has a relatively large impact on daily life. Therefore, many women who experience lower back pain should pay attention to it, so as to avoid causing serious physical harm to themselves due to their lower back pain. The following content specifically introduces the causes of lower back pain in girls. You can have a comprehensive understanding to see what causes it.

Cause 1. Caused by physiological characteristics such as menstruation, pregnancy, and puerperium

Some girls like to eat snacks, especially cold drinks during menstruation. Doing this for a long time can easily lead to stagnation of qi and blood, blockage of meridians, and thus cause dysmenorrhea. Some women do not pay attention to rest during their menstrual period and will feel back pain when their period comes.

After a woman becomes pregnant, as the pregnancy progresses, the uterus slowly enlarges, the support force of the waist continues to increase, and the round ligament of the uterus relaxes due to long-term traction, causing the sacrospinous ligament to relax, compressing the pelvic nerves and blood vessels, causing many expectant mothers to feel back pain. This type of low back pain will generally disappear gradually as the waist muscle strength recovers after delivery.

During pregnancy, the fetus needs sufficient nutrients such as calcium and phosphorus for development. If the dietary intake of nutrients is insufficient, it will cause osteoporosis and decalcification in pregnant women, and may also cause low back pain. Excessive postpartum bleeding, premature labor, excessive fatigue, and cold can also cause low back pain.

Cause 2: Wearing high heels for a long time

Wearing high heels for a long time will affect the balance of the lower limbs, making it difficult to stand and walk as desired. The reaction and coordination ability of the whole body will decrease, and acute lumbar sprain will easily occur. The injury also causes low back pain, which brings great inconvenience to work and life.

Cause 3: Urinary tract infection

The female urethra is short and straight, and the external opening of the urethra is close to the anus. In addition, due to some physiological reasons, women are more likely to develop urinary tract infections than men. This type of urinary tract infection often causes swelling and pain in the lower back. In severe cases, the pain will radiate along the ureter to the perineum. In addition, urinary stones, kidney stones, etc. can also cause low back pain. Therefore, women should pay more attention to maintaining the hygiene of the vulva.

There are many reasons for girls' lower back pain, such as pregnancy, menstruation, urinary tract infection, and long-term wearing of high heels. Therefore, for women, when they have lower back pain, it is best to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination to find out the cause of the lower back pain. Only through correct treatment can you avoid serious harm to your body.
