Menstrual discomfort can be said to be a monthly "nightmare" for many girls, ranging from spastic pain in the lower abdomen to back pain and even syncope. In clinical work, it is found that many women will use the method of beating the waist to relieve low back pain and other discomfort. But this is not the right way to do it. It may bring more serious problems.

The resistance of women during menstruation is relatively low. Improper hammering will lead to increased pelvic congestion, blood flow, increased menstruation, prolonged menstruation, and even worse back pain. At the same time, external stimulation is not conducive to the repair and healing of the wound after endometrial denudation, which is easy to cause infection and acute and chronic gynecological diseases. Therefore, when backache occurs during menstruation, you should avoid beating your back at will, pay attention to rest more and keep your back warm. At the same time, women with poor gastrointestinal function or weak and cold physique should avoid eating cold and raw food during menstruation, such as cold drinks, cold dishes, crabs, pears, watermelons, etc.

It should be reminded that the pain in the back during menstruation may also be caused by pelvic inflammation, lumbar spondylosis, and urinary system diseases. In order to achieve good relief effect, we need to go to the hospital and treat it under the guidance of professional doctors.
