low back pain in women

Introduction

Introduction Low back pain is more common in women because of their physiological characteristics such as menstruation, birth, childbirth, and breastfeeding. In addition, menstrual disease, underlying disease, pregnancy, gynecological diseases and post-abortion can also cause low back pain.

Cause

Cause

1. Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease

The disease is the most common cause of low back pain in women. Most women have acute pelvic inflammation after cesarean section, ovarian cystectomy or appendicitis, which is caused by failure to treat in time. It is characterized by low back pain, lower abdominal pain and increased vaginal discharge. Low back pain is caused by increased inflammatory exudate, resulting in pelvic adhesions, which seriously affects life and health. Therefore, it is especially important to have early disease treatment and disease prevention.

2, abnormal uterus position

The normal uterus is located in a mild forward anterior curvature, and the surrounding ligaments move freely. When the uterus is posterior or backward, the inflammation of the uterus and the surrounding area causes adhesions, causing traction low back pain, which occurs mostly after frequent abortion, prolific or other uterine surgery. Uterine ptosis, prolapse or high adhesion to the abdominal cavity, etc., can pull the ligament, causing low back pain. This kind of low back pain has no special treatment, correcting uterine prolapse and changing body position can relieve symptoms.

3, pelvic tumor

More common in middle-aged women. Common such as uterine fibroids, cervical cancer, ovarian cysts, etc., low back pain due to tumor compression nerves or cancer cells infiltrating pelvic connective tissue. The tumor itself pulls on the peritoneum and can also cause low back pain.

4, the birth control ring is abnormal

The disease is an aspect that can not be ignored in women's low back pain. The abnormality of the birth control ring includes the type of the birth control ring and the uterine cavity, the elasticity of the birth control ring is too large, or the position of the birth control ring is abnormal. Improper birth control rings are incarcerated in the uterine cavity, stimulating the uterine wall and causing pain in the back. In this regard, the replacement of the birth control ring can be removed.

5, tired during pregnancy and puerperium

During pregnancy, as the fetus grows up, the ligaments of the lumbosacral and pelvic joints of the pregnant woman relax, and the weight of the uterus increases, causing the center of gravity to move forward. In order to maintain the balance of the body, the waist tends to rise forward. If you do not pay attention to rest, it is easy to cause low back pain. During pregnancy, fetal development requires adequate calcium, phosphorus and other nutrients. If the intake of nutrients in the diet is insufficient, it can cause softening and decalcification of the bones of pregnant women, which can also cause low back pain. Lack of bleeding during puerperium, or premature labor, overwork and cold, can also cause low back pain.

6, genitourinary infections

Due to anatomical and physiological characteristics, women are prone to urinary tract infections, such as acute and chronic pyelonephritis, gonorrhea, cervicitis, cervical erosion, etc., manifested as lumbar pain or sharp pain, and radiated to the perineum along the ureter. In addition, urinary stones, tuberculosis, etc., can also cause low back pain.

7, lumbar muscle strain

Excessive fatigue, abnormal standing, sitting posture, etc., can cause lumbar muscle strain and cause chronic pain in the waist. Usually pay attention to work and rest.
