What causes pain in the middle of the waist?

Many people feel pain in the middle of their waist after heavy work. Many people do not take this symptom seriously, thinking it is just excessive fatigue and lack of rest. In fact, pain in the middle of the waist may sometimes be a sign of illness. If you are not careful and miss the best treatment period, it may lead to serious consequences. So, what exactly is causing the pain in the middle of your waist?

1. Caused by physiological characteristics

Many women do not pay attention to their diet during menstruation and often drink cold drinks in large gulps. This can cause stagnation of qi and blood, blockage of meridians, and lead to low back pain or dysmenorrhea.

There are also some women who do not pay attention to rest during menstruation, and long-term labor can also cause dysmenorrhea and back pain during menstruation.

Some women also experience back pain after pregnancy, and the back pain becomes more obvious as the pregnancy progresses.

This is because the uterus is slowly growing, which in turn increases the support of the waist. The round ligament of the uterus relaxes due to long-term traction, causing the sacrospinous ligament to relax and compress the pelvic nerves and blood vessels, thus causing low back pain.

2. Urinary tract infection

The female urethra is different from the male urethra. The female urethra is short and straight, and the external opening of the urethra is close to the anus. Coupled with the special physiology of women, they are prone to urinary tract infections and other diseases.

The female urethra is different from the male urethra. The female urethra is short and straight.

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.

Therefore, in daily life, women should pay special attention to maintaining the hygiene of the vulva to reduce the chance of disease.

3. Lumbar muscle strain

When experiencing low back pain, most people's first reaction to the cause of the pain is lumbar muscle strain.

If we maintain a posture for a long time, such as standing for a long time, this will lead to the weakening of the stretching ability of the lumbar tendons and ligaments, excessive accumulation of local lactic acid, which will inhibit the normal metabolism of the lumbar muscles, causing lumbar muscle strain and thus lower back pain.

There are also some people who suffer from rheumatism, arthritis, and lumbar disc herniation. These diseases will compress the spinal cord and nerve roots and can also cause low back pain. Therefore, this group of people must pay attention to the combination of work and rest in daily life.
