      Dysmenorrhea is a lot female One of the issues that I love to discuss and solve. So how do you use coarse salt to deal with menstrual cramps at home?

      Prepare about 500 grams of coarse salt (coarse sea salt can be used), add 15 to 30 grams of safflower and 15 to 30 grams of zedoary, put it into an iron pot and fry for about 10 minutes. When the sea salt turns yellow and heats up, scoop up the Chinese medicinal salt, put it into a bag made of thicker cotton cloth, and tie it up. Place the bag at the Shenjue point in the middle of the abdomen and the points on both sides of the abdomen. Uterus Acupoints have the effects of dredging the meridians, activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, warming the meridians and dispersing cold.

      Experts say that the warm stimulation of fried salt can dilate capillaries, accelerate blood circulation, improve local metabolism, and have anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and pain relief effects; safflower and curcuma have strong effects in promoting blood circulation and removing blood clots, and are more effective for patients with dysmenorrhea who often have blood clots in their menstrual blood.

      The traditional Chinese medicine fried salt ironing therapy can be implemented one week before menstruation. The ironing treatment lasts for about 30 minutes, 2 to 3 times a day. Traditional Chinese medicine salt can be stir-fried repeatedly or heated in a microwave oven, but it is best to stir-fry it dry in an iron pot. When reusing and heating, if the odor of traditional Chinese medicine has been significantly reduced or disappeared, new medicine should be added again. Coarse salt should be replaced when the particles become finer after repeated use.

      If local redness, itching, rash, etc. appear during ironing, use should be stopped immediately. If the symptoms of dysmenorrhea are severe or do not improve after the above treatments, you should see Hospital treat.

      Unexpectedly, the salt that everyone eats on daily basis can also relieve women’s major trouble - dysmenorrhea. All female friends who have dysmenorrhea symptoms should give it a try.

      Dysmenorrhea is a difficult disease, and we are not afraid of you.
