Patient's question:
What Chinese patent medicine can treat dysmenorrhea? I have been having my period since I was fifteen years old. From the first time to now, every time I have it, it hurts and I have dysmenorrhea. It hurts so much that I roll around. Every time I feel uncomfortable, I take a pain reliever. People say that taking pain relievers habitually leads to dependence. Is there a good way? What Chinese medicine can solve the root of the problem?Doctor's answer:
It is not recommended to take medication, as Western medicine can be harmful to the body and only treats symptoms, not the root cause. Long-term use can lead to dependency and worsen the condition.Regarding diet, during menstruation, it is advisable to eat light, bland, and nutritious foods, avoiding spicy and irritating foods such as crabs, snails, pears, persimmons, watermelons, and bamboo shoots.
For physical exercise, maintain a routine of going to bed early and waking up early, and engage in regular physical activity while paying attention to keeping warm. Avoid strong mental stress and strive to keep a positive mood!
For herbal medicine regulation, consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for herbal remedies to alleviate menstrual pain, or consider the herbal formula Jin Tong Ling Cao Wan, which is a highly effective traditional Chinese medicine prescription.
Application of the umbilical therapy, which warms the meridians, dispels cold, regulates qi, and relieves pain. This is a good folk remedy.
