Women will experience various discomfort symptoms during their menstrual period, most of which are manifestations of excessive physical burden. This is because women during their menstrual period will consume a lot of qi and blood, and their physical fitness will be greatly weakened. The most obvious symptom is severe lower back pain during menstruation, which causes many women to suffer greatly. What are some ways to relieve lower back pain during menstruation? Let’s take a look at the explanation below. Tip 1: Hot compress When menstruation comes, do you feel cold limbs, including your entire waist? At this time, putting something warm on your waist can instantly relieve the pain. Therefore, if conditions permit, lie on your back in bed, soak a towel in warm water (make sure it doesn't drip), and place it under the painful area of your waist and the sacrum slightly below. Then put a hot water bottle on it, apply hot compress for about 10 minutes, and then apply hot compress on both sides of your waist for 10 minutes each. Tip 2: Supplement potassium and iron The days during a woman's menstrual period are when her body is at its weakest. Proper adjustment of diet can effectively replenish the nutrients lost by the body and enhance resistance. For example, eating foods containing potassium and iron can help relieve mood, suppress pain, prevent infection, and reduce menstrual blood loss. Supplement with iron-rich foods, such as fish, various animal livers, egg yolks, etc. Tip 3: Press and rub the Hegu point What women need most during their menstrual period is careful care, but many women don’t quite understand how to get through their menstrual period safely. Symptoms like lower back pain during menstruation can actually be treated by massaging the Hegu point, which is especially suitable for office workers who cannot rest. Acupoint location and pressing method: Put your index finger and thumb together, then you will see a bulging muscle. The highest point of this muscle is the Hegu point. When you have free time, use the thumb of your other hand to press the Hegu point with a little force. Hold for 5 seconds each time, release and repeat. Repeat this for 3 minutes. Hegu point has the functions of activating blood circulation, promoting qi circulation, and unblocking menstruation. It has a certain analgesic effect, so women may try it during menstruation. |
