How to treat colds during menstruation

How to treat colds during menstruation

As the hot summer approaches, women who cannot resist the heat flow must of course use air conditioning. However, due to the powerful air conditioner in the room, it is very hot outside and the temperature difference in the room is large, which can easily cause colds. Especially for women who are menstruating, their physical condition will be relatively weak and their resistance will be poor. If they are not careful, they will be entangled with colds. So what should women do if they catch a cold during menstruation?

How to treat a fever and cold during menstruation

1. Keep warm

In daily life, we should pay attention to keeping warm, especially the lower body. Pay attention to keeping your lower abdomen, waist and feet warm. Don't expose your legs too early in late winter and early spring, and try to avoid wearing miniskirts and low-waist pants.

2. Moderate fitness exercise

Generally speaking, people with both Qi and blood deficiency prefer to be quiet and not active. Too much exercise can easily make them feel tired, shortness of breath, chest tightness, etc., so some people resolutely choose not to move. In fact, movement generates yang, and moderate exercise can also improve blood circulation and improve physical fitness.

3. Mental conditioning

When people are overworked, depressed or overly stimulated by other negative emotions, the circulation of Qi and blood will also be affected. Therefore, pay attention to regular work and rest time in daily life and do not stay up late. In addition, try to maintain a cheerful and happy mood and avoid large fluctuations in your mood.

4. Foot massage

There are many acupoints and meridians on the feet. Regular massage can dredge the meridians, improve blood circulation, and regulate blood. For example, the toes are the junction of the "Three Yin Meridians of the Foot" and the "Three Yang Meridians of the Foot". Regularly massaging the ten toes is conducive to the smooth flow of meridian qi. When massaging, you can pinch one toe with your thumb and ring finger, knead each side and then slowly pull it upwards. In addition, the "Yongquan Point" on the sole of the foot is also a very critical acupoint. Pan Mingwo said, "The kidney originates from Yongquan, and Yongquan is the center of the foot." Therefore, frequently massaging this point is also very beneficial for protecting Qi and blood. How to find the Yongquan point? Just roll the sole of the foot slightly, and you can feel a dent on the front side of the sole.

5. Eat a healthy diet

When the blood and qi are abundant, people's hands and feet are warm all year round. Some women are very sensitive to the drop in external temperature, and are prone to cold hands and feet, which is a manifestation of qi and blood deficiency. When both Qi and blood are deficient, you can eat warm foods that nourish Qi and blood, such as dried longan, walnut kernels, dates, wolfberries, etc. However, try to avoid eating some cold foods, such as radish, mung bean, winter melon, various cold foods, icy foods, and raw salads. In addition, you can also take "Chuanxiong, jujube, Morinda officinalis boiled eggs" or "Ejiao cake and lean meat soup" before menstruation, and drink some brown sugar ginger water after menstruation.
