Excrutiating lower back pain during period...?

Question

Before and mostly during my period of about 4 days i have really bad back pain in my lower back. It's a signal that im gonna come on as im still not regular to the date yet but it hurts so much! Paracetmol works for about 5 minutes and I dont want to keep taking them... Hot baths work too but it comes back after a bit... Am I going to have to just deal with it or is there anything i can do/eat to make it go away or feel more at ease?

Answer 1

Keep doing what you are. I have terrible back pain during my period too.

Sometimes just lying on my back face up really helps.

Also, I sometimes ask people to walk on my back.

Hot water bottles on my back help, and so do cramp medications.

If your in for a quick fix, just massage your back. It helps for a few minutes

Other than that, you may just have to stick it out. Good luck!

Answer 2

The reason why your back hurts is because your hormones cause your b*****s to grow a bit more during this time. Even though it is only a slight growth, it causes you to slouch way more.

Just try to sit up straight more, or even get a back support brace. That should help.

Hope this helps  =]

Goodluck!
