Heat provides comfort to many women. Try taking a warm bath. Use the quiet time for meditation and truly let your muscles relax. You can purchase heat pads from the drugstore that you can stick to the clothing above your lower back. For a quick fix, you can even roll a bottle of warm water along your lower back. Herbal teas, like chamomile, will help you relax. Of course, many over the counter pain killers are a good way to combat cramping pain. You can even make your period a much easier experience by taking anti-inflammatory drugs a day or two prior to your period. Though it might hurt to move, some light exercise is a great way to ease some of your painful cramping. Women who exercise regularly tend to experience less cramping. But even women who hate going to the gym can benefit greatly from exercise, including light walks and stretching. good luck ): |
