Patient's question:
Back and shoulder pain, sometimes accompanied by a slight fever, like a high fever. Could this condition be due to irregular menstruation? How should it be handled?Doctor's answer:
Back and shoulder pain generally requires consideration of cervical spine diseases or periarthritis of the shoulder. It is unrelated to the menstrual cycle. If menstrual irregularities reappear, it may be due to reasons such as qi stagnation and blood stasis, qi and blood deficiency, or uterine coldness.Guidance and suggestions: For back and shoulder pain, it is necessary to undergo local X-ray examinations of the cervical spine and shoulder joints to identify the condition. For menstrual irregularities, it is generally recommended to conduct a sex hormone six-item test and abdominal ultrasound examination, or consult the department of traditional Chinese medicine to determine the cause and provide symptomatic treatment.
The occurrence of gynecological conditions severely threatens women's health. Patients should pay attention to follow-up examinations after the menstrual period, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy foods that may cause irritation. It is hoped that female patients can receive standardized treatment.
