Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Can menstrual cramps be relieved with heat?Doctor's answer:
Menstrual cramps can be relieved with heat therapy. Menstrual cramps should be treated by addressing the underlying causes. For example, if pelvic inflammatory disease or tumors are causing menstrual cramps, treating these primary conditions can lead to the resolution of the cramps. In cases of severe pain, atropine can be administered via intramuscular injection, or pain-relieving medications such as aspirin can be taken. Alternatively, a combination of these two medications may be used.Irregular menstruation not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to gynecological disorders. Therefore, it is best to undergo a routine check-up in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the underlying cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, dietary adjustments should be made, focusing on light and easily digestible foods. Spicy, stimulating, and cold foods should be avoided.
