Lower Back Pain With Period Symptoms And Remedies

All women experience some sort of period symptoms. However, when you experience lower back pain with period symptoms it can be really distracting. It can keep you from getting comfortable in any position. It can stop you from focusing on your job. It may even keep you from getting out of bed. So, what can you do about it?

Understand It:

The first thing you can do about it is try to understand it. After all, there is a reason behind your back pain. For example, when you experience severe cramping (dysmennorrhea), it can create back pain. Also, if you are experiencing heavy bleeding then the excessive amount of blood can press on organs and muscles, creating back spasms and aches. So, if you can control your hormone levels and your blood flow, you should be able to reduce back pain.

The Easiest Treatments:

There are a couple of easy treatments for period-related back pain. One of them is pain medication. However, pain medication doesn't treat the hormone levels, chemical imbalances or heavy bleeding. So, it's only a temporary cover, not a fix. Also, many medications can cause side effects that are worse than the symptoms of your period.
