What causes stomach and back pain? Treatment for stomachache and backache

Abdominal pain and back pain are very common among female friends. So what causes stomach pain and back pain?

1. Never beat your waist with your hands. Just use your hands to rub your waist from top to bottom. Don't use too much force. Just rub it gently. During this special period, girls are already weak, and beating them hard may cause them to be unable to bear it, and it is more likely to cause menstrual disorders.

2. The reason for back and waist pain is related to the poor discharge of menstrual blood.

Add a few drops of lavender essential oil to hot water, then wet a towel, wring it out slightly, and use the hot towel to apply hot compress to the Guanyuan acupoint. After the temperature of the towel drops, wet it again, wring it out, and apply hot compress again. Repeat this hot compress for 10 minutes.

5. Press the Hegu point. If you put your index finger and thumb together, you can see a bulging muscle. The highest point of this bulging muscle is the Hegu point. Whenever you have time every day, use the thumb of one hand to press the Hegu point of the other hand. Press with a little force each time, hold for 5 seconds, release, and repeat. Repeat this process for 3 minutes.
