Exercise the pelvic muscles to prevent urinary incontinence
Uterine prolapse and urinary incontinence is a common disease among middle-aged and elderly women, which can seriously affect women's quality of life. About a quarter of middle-aged and older women suffer from varying degrees of uterine prolapse and tension urinary incontinence, and the symptoms worsen with age, causing great pain to the patient.
In fact, uterine prolapse and urinary incontinence in middle-aged and elderly women can be prevented and treated. First of all, when a woman gives birth, the midwife should handle the delivery process correctly, timely detection and careful repair of cracks in the birth canal and pelvic floor tissues; the mother should pay attention to the hygiene of the birth and puerperium; during delivery, the mother must do not prematurely and do not over-exertion. Secondly, after the delivery, you should pay attention to rest and nutrition, actively exercise to exercise the pelvic floor muscles and abdominal wall muscles, and avoid early and excessive housework and physical labor.
Postpartum examination, if the uterus is found to be poorly restored, it should be corrected in accordance with medical advice.
Additionally, women with chronic coughs and habitual constipation should be actively treated. Pelvic floor muscle function training is easy to do, non-invasive, painless, effective and without side effects, it is worth promoting. Pelvic floor function training is to do the contraction and relaxation of the pelvic floor muscles in a rhythmic manner. Depending on your physical condition, you can do about 20 of these exercises every day before going to bed to strengthen your pelvic floor muscles and to improve your ability to control them consciously. Patients with more severe uterine prolapse and urinary incontinence should opt for surgery as soon as possible if treatment with pelvic floor training and medication is ineffective.
Hot water for migraines
When a headache strikes, take a basin of hot water, the temperature of which is tolerated by the skin of the hand, and then immerse your hands in the hot water. However, it should be noted that in the process of immersion, should constantly add some hot water to maintain a certain water temperature. Usually about half an hour the pain can be gradually reduced, or even completely disappeared.
This is because the appearance of migraine is due to cerebral blood vessels congestion and swelling, compression of cerebral nerves. When the hands are immersed in hot water, the blood vessels of the hands are subjected to thermal expansion, so that the blood flow is gathered in the hands. In this way, the blood congestion of cerebral blood vessels will be relatively reduced, the expansion of blood vessels is also reduced accordingly, thus reducing the pressure on the cerebral nerves, the pain will gradually disappear. At the same time, the hot water stimulates the nerve endings of the hand, to the brain center to pass the relaxation signal, transferring the patient's attention to the head pain.
Some experts even believe that if you can often insist on soaking your hands in warm water, you may be able to cure the migraine.
These remedies should be used under the guidance of a professional Chinese medicine practitioner
