Although dysmenorrhea is not a major illness, it can be excruciating. The key is to experience it every month. So, what are the ways to quickly treat dysmenorrhea? Today, the editor will summarize some quick methods for treating dysmenorrhea to save those who suffer from it.
How to quickly treat dysmenorrhea?
1. Taking painkillers: When menstrual pain begins, women can take painkillers with milk or food. Painkillers take effect about 20-30 minutes later and last for 12 hours. This method is not recommended for long-term use.
2. Moxibustion method: Select acupoints such as Sanyinjiao and Zusanli, and hang moxa sticks at a height of about 3cm from the acupoints to make the local area warm without burning pain. Each acupoint lasts for about 10-15 minutes, with the degree of redness appearing on the skin.
3. Massage method: Rub your palms against each other until you feel hot, then massage the lower abdomen below the navel in a clockwise direction for about 200 times. Or rub the Zusanli and Sanyinjiao acupoints for 1 minute each.
4. Hot compress method: Applying hot compress to the lower abdomen can help alleviate uterine spasms, promote blood circulation in the abdomen, and alleviate dysmenorrhea. If heated traditional Chinese medicine is used for hot compress, the effect of promoting blood circulation, unblocking meridians, and relieving pain will be better.
It is best for women with dysmenorrhea to regulate it through diet, massage, and other methods. If the dysmenorrhea is severe, appropriate medication can be taken to relieve pain. In addition to medication treatment, women can also do more exercise in their daily lives. During menstrual cramps, they should avoid eating raw and cold foods, which can help alleviate the pain to some extent. If the menstrual pain is too severe to relieve, one should go to the hospital for a detailed examination.
The above 4 reasons are the quick methods for treating dysmenorrhea summarized by the editor. Come and take a look, everyone! I hope it can help all those who suffer from dysmenorrhea.
