What to do with back pain after confinement

If you suffer from back pain after confinement, you must pay attention to reasonable adjustments and improvements, pay attention to your diet and daily life, keep yourself warm, avoid eating raw or cold food, and perform some massage rehabilitation therapy on the local area.

1. Daily life: Avoid cold and dampness, keep warm

Women with low back pain should pay attention to keeping warm, especially in the cold and damp seasons of winter and spring, when the waist needs to be kept warm. Try to avoid getting wet in the rain and catching cold, sleeping in the wind at night, etc. Avoid lying in damp places for a long time. In cold and damp seasons, you can use an electric heating mattress to dispel the cold and keep warm. Regular waist movements can stretch the waist muscles and promote blood circulation in local muscles. Therefore, for patients who sit or stand for long periods of time at work, they should exercise their waist appropriately from time to time to relieve tension in the waist muscles and relieve pain. For example, you can walk a little indoors, do some exercises to move your waist, etc. Pay attention to sexual hygiene. When low back pain is significantly aggravated, sexual intercourse should be avoided. During the remission period, the frequency of sexual intercourse should also be appropriately adjusted. Pay attention to menstrual hygiene, keep the vulva clean, avoid urinary and reproductive system infections, and reduce factors that aggravate low back pain. Do a good job in family planning, avoid excessive abortions, and choose appropriate contraceptive methods. For low back pain and menstrual abnormalities caused by IUD insertion, other birth control measures can be used to alleviate the progression of the disease. It is not advisable to bind the waist too tightly. Patients with low back pain should avoid binding the waist, because it can cause local blood circulation disorders and aggravate the condition. It is inappropriate for some women to use waist binding to maintain a slim figure after giving birth. The correct approach is to do postpartum health care exercises to truly achieve the goal of beauty.

2. Diet adjustment : The diet of people with low back pain is generally not much different from that of normal people. But be careful to avoid eating too much raw, cold and damp food, and even in summer, it is not advisable to drink too many frozen drinks. It is not advisable to eat too much cold and slippery fruits at one time, such as watermelon. For chronic low back pain that persists, you can take some Chinese patent medicines that strengthen the kidneys and waist regularly, such as Liuwei Dihuang Pills, Shenqi Pills, Shiquan Dabu Pills, etc. You can choose the right one according to your physical condition and condition.

3. Rehabilitation therapy : massage,

(1) Press the lumbar sacral area with your palms: Lie prone and press your palms together on the painful lumbar vertebrae until there is no pain. One inhalation and one exhalation counts as one time. Do this 10 to 15 times.

(2)

Massage the waist and back: After work, you can use your palms to rub the waist and back muscles in the morning or before going to bed at night, rubbing up and down 50 to 100 times, and twisting your waist at the same time. This can relax the muscles and promote blood circulation, improve local blood circulation, and improve low back pain.

(3) Massage the muscle knots: Use the tip of your thumb to carefully touch the waist and sacrum. If you find any tender lumps, press them with your fingertips. Massage each knot for 1 minute.
