What to do if you have back pain during menstruation

4. Press the Taichong point: The Taichong point is located about one horizontal finger upwards from the gap between the first and second toes.

Don't hit your back if you have back pain during menstruation

The main reason for lower back pain during menstruation, besides mental stress, fatigue, improper diet, etc., is the position of the female uterus in the pelvic cavity.

During this special period, if you beat yourself hard at will, it will not only have no effect, but will instead lead to increased pelvic congestion, faster blood flow, increased menstrual volume, prolonged menstruation, and more severe back pain. At the same time, women's resistance will also be reduced at this time. Inappropriate external force is not conducive to the repair and healing of the wound after endometrial exfoliation, and it is more likely to cause infection and acute and chronic gynecological diseases.
