“Auntie pains” generally refers to menstrual cramps in women. The discomfort can usually be relieved to some extent by choosing a semi-curled position. If the pain is more pronounced, a combination of general measures and medication may be needed.
Some menstrual cramps are accompanied by significant pain, which can be relieved by the half-curl position. Bending the knees close to the chest can relieve the tension in the abdominal muscles and, to some extent, relieve the discomfort caused by dysmenorrhea, but there is some individual variability in this type of method.
Some women with severe menstrual cramps can’t rely solely on postural positions to relieve pain. At this time, it is recommended to pay attention to abdominal warmth, if necessary, hot water bags can be chosen to apply hot compresses to the abdomen, to promote local blood circulation, to improve the pain.
At the same time, avoid heavy physical labor, maintain a relaxed and happy mood. If the above symptoms do not improve significantly, you can follow the doctor’s instructions to take ibuprofen, naproxen and other drugs for treatment.
If the symptoms of dysmenorrhea are obvious, it is necessary to consult a doctor in time, complete the relevant examinations, clarify the cause of the disease under the guidance of a professional doctor, and actively deal with it.
