Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Especially avoid hitting, stepping on, or rubbing the lumbar-sacral region and lower abdomen. This is because, during menstruation, the pelvic cavity becomes congested. If one arbitrarily steps on, hits, or rubs the lumbar-sacral region or lower abdomen, it can exacerbate pelvic congestion and accelerate blood flow, leading to excessive menstrual bleeding and prolonged periods. Additionally, during menstruation, women's overall and local resistance decreases. Inappropriate massage can prolong the menstrual period, hindering the healing and repair of the endometrium, making it easier to cause infections and potentially leading to acute or chronic gynecological diseases in the future. Generally, massage during menstruation should be limited to the back and bilateral lower limbs, and the technique should not be too forceful.
