1. Causes of waist and abdominal pain:

Women often experience cold and painful waist, back and abdomen in winter. The early symptoms of kidney yang deficiency are cold hands and feet, and as it progresses, cold waist and abdomen will appear. The waist is the home of the kidneys. Damage to the kidney yang will lead to kidney yang deficiency and cause symptoms related to waist and abdominal pain. Women of all ages suffer from low back pain. The reason is that the kidneys are close to the back wall of the back. If you love beauty and wear less or you don't pay attention to the cold during menstruation, you will have low back pain. If the living environment is cold and damp, it will cause cold and damp low back pain. Low back pain can also occur due to congestion sprain or strain of the waist. In addition, reproductive system problems, such as pelvic inflammatory disease, can also cause low back pain. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, kidney deficiency can cause osteoporosis. Kidney yang deficiency often leads to uterine coldness, endometriosis, dysmenorrhea, etc.

Low back pain accompanied by swelling and numbness in the lower limbs is often caused by intervertebral disc bulging compressing the sciatic nerve, and manifests as pain in the middle of the lumbar spine.

2. Fitness methods to prevent and relieve low back pain:

Hands climbing feet: Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, sink your qi into Dantian, grip the ground with toes, slowly raise both arms over head from both sides, slightly tilt your waist and chest back, and feel the chest and waist being lifted up. Hold for 3 seconds, slowly return your arms to be parallel to your shoulders and chest, move your hands along both sides of your chest to your back, and stroke down along the ribs. Slowly bend over and keep your knees straight without bending. Move your hands along your waist, buttocks, thighs, popliteal fossa, calves to your ankles, then move your hands from your ankles to the front of your feet and let go. Straighten your arms and slowly raise them, then stand up.

3. The correct method of warming waist and relieving pain:

Rub your hands together to warm them up, then rub them up and down on your waist; you can use a heat pad or a hot water bottle. Hot compress with moxa bag. After repeatedly heating the moxa bag with an iron, you can apply it to painful areas such as the navel, waist, joints, etc., or you can apply it up and down the spine to warm the tendons and governing vessel and relieve pain throughout the body. It is not recommended to wear tight thermal underwear as it will restrict the body and affect blood circulation. It is not recommended to soak in hot springs or take saunas to warm the waist in winter. Health preservation in all four seasons pays attention to the Yang Energy: in spring, it is for promotion; in summer, it is for growth; in autumn, it is for harvest; in winter, it is for storage. In winter, soaking in hot springs or taking a sauna will cause a lot of sweating, which will increase the blood flow to the skin, and reduce the blood supply to nourish the internal organs, making people tired. This is a method of dissipating yang instead of consolidating yang.

4. Food and medicine for warming yang and regulating waist and abdominal pain:

The most effective traditional Chinese medicine for dispelling coldness and relieving cold pain in the waist and abdomen is deer antler. Deer antler is a great tonic for the vital yang. It can be used to treat weak waist and knees, tinnitus, cold uterus, dysmenorrhea, late menstruation, impotence and infertility. Deer antler is expensive, so it can be replaced with Cistanche deserticola (a parasitic plant in the desert, also known as desert ginseng. As the saying goes, I would rather have a basket of Cistanche deserticola than a bed full of gold and jade). Cistanche can be used to make soup, soak in wine, or boiled. After boiling, drink the water and eat the Cistanche. This medicine can be used for both male and female infertility. Cistanche has the effect of warming the yang, moistening the intestines and promoting bowel movements. It is also suitable for elderly people with kidney yang deficiency, cold hands and feet, and dry stools.
