HOME REMEDIES FOR DYSMENORRHEA

Due to changing lifestyle, pollution and dietary changes, the problem of excessive pain during periods is very common in women today. Even though there are alternatives to painkillers for immediate relief from this discomfort, many times women hesitate to take these medicines after consulting a doctor.

In such a situation, there are many home remedies to get relief from this problem, which can be adopted to get relief from the severe pain during menstruation. They neither have any side effects nor are they more expensive.

  • Celery (Ajwain)

    Often, gastric problems increase in women during periods, due to which there is severe pain in the stomach. Consuming celery is very effective in dealing with it. Mixing half a teaspoon of ajwain and half a teaspoon of salt and drinking it with lukewarm water can provide instant relief from pain. Apart from this, drinking ajwain juice made with beetroot, carrot and cucumber does not cause pain during periods.

  • Drink plenty of water

    another factor that contributes to unpleasant menstruation is not drinking enough water. Our body is 70% water and we need at least one to two liters of water per day to stay healthy. Keeping yourself hydrated and drinking enough water during your period will help you avoid cramps and other period-related discomforts. Drinking enough water will also help you feel less bloated.

  • Ginger

    Consuming ginger during period’s pain also gives instant relief. Boil a finely chopped piece of ginger in a cup of water. Add sugar as per taste if desired. Consume it thrice a day after meals.

  • Dairy Products

    Consumption of milk and milk products is very important for women. Women who are deficient in calcium in their body have more problems related to menstruation. In such a situation, not only during periods, but always consumption of milk and dairy products is very important for ladies because calcium is found in abundance in them.

  • Basil

    Tulsi is an excellent natural pain killer which can be taken without any hesitation in the pain of periods. The caffeic acid present in it provides relief in pain. In such a situation, drinking basil leaves mixed with tea at the time of pain also gives relief. If there is more trouble, boil 7-8 basil leaves in half a cup of water and consume it after filtering.

 

  • Papaya

    Many times women also suffer more pain due to not being able to flow properly during periods. In this case, consuming papaya is a great option. Due to its use, the flow during periods occurs in a properly balanced manner, which does not cause pain.

  • Hot water bag

    to get relief from period pain, apply hot water bag on the stomach and waist. This will give instant relief.

  • Pay attention to food and drink

    during menstruation, the consumption of iron and vitamins increases in the body. If these elements are not supplied on time, then next time menstruation may face problems. That’s why green vegetables, milk, curd and fruits should be eaten to make up for the lack of nutrition in the body.

  • Bathe with hot water

    bathing with hot water increases the body temperature, due to which the blood from the uterus gets removed easily. To avoid problems occurring during periods, one should bathe with warm water two to three times a day.

  • Massage

    Massage the abdomen with light hands for 5-10 minutes. This reduces swelling. You can massage while lying down, sitting or even standing. The oil should be slightly heated before massaging. Coconut oil or olive oil should be used for massage.

  • Ginger and Black Pepper Tea

    Make herbal tea using dry ginger and black pepper. Add some sugar to taste, but avoid milk. “Ginger can absolutely reduce period pain, as it plays an important role in reducing the level of prostaglandins. Apart from this, it also helps in regularizing the period.

CERVICAL SPONDYLITIS

INTRODUCTION

Cervical spondylitis is also known as cervical osteoarthritis or degenerative osteoarthritis. It is an age-related disorder which occurs due to the degeneration of spinal discs in the neck area. The discs may break down and lead to fluid loss. The ligaments become weak and lose their normal strength. The abnormal growths can occur in the bones of neck and these are called osteophytes. Osteophytes cause narrowing of the spinal column leading to stenosis of spine. Pain and stiffness in the neck area are the most common symptoms of cervical spondylitis.
