Cold Water for Stomach Aches? The Thing That Works.

Stomach aches, especially during menstruation, many women experience .

Taking medication may not be the only solution!

The sitz bath

Cold Water for Stomach Aches? The Thing That Works.

To start, keep your upper body covered, or heat the bathroom so you don't catch a cold.

Fill the tub with cold water , so that once you're seated, the water covers your upper thighs and belly up to the navel. It is not necessary for the lower legs to be soaked in water:if you have a deep enough basin, this will do the job perfectly, and you can thus leave your legs outside.

This sitz bath should last between 1 and 10 seconds :and yes, it's not super pleasant to have your buttocks in cold water, but over such a short period of time, it's doable!

And for optimal effectiveness, practice this treatment for 7 days before menstruation, so they will be less painful.

Bonus :this remedy also has a very positive effect on hemorrhoids and on digestion difficulties.
