Treatment
In most cases, no medication or other complex treatment is necessary to alleviate the symptoms. As the symptoms occur naturally, they usually disappear again naturally. It is often sufficient to place a hot water bottle or a spelt cushion on the stomach.
The warmth causes possible cramps in the abdomen to ease and the woman can relax. Many women also find a hot bath helps to relax and relieve pain. A light massage of the abdominal wall can also help to loosen the cramps.
In some cases, the middle pain is caused by a lack of nutrients in the female body. Taking magnesium can help to alleviate the symptoms. If the pain is very severe or lasts for several days, a doctor should be consulted.
This also applies if other symptoms such as vomiting are also present. In these cases, other diseases of the abdominal cavity must be excluded and possibly a medicinal therapy with painkillers is necessary.
