Natural Precaution To Be Taken If  You Or Your Daughter Is Facing Menstrual Cramp

Heat : Use hot water bottle or a heating pad on the abdomen.According to various experts, heat increases blood flow and circulation to the uterus and may help lessen the impact of the naturally occurring chemicals that cause the cramps.
Cold: Remember each person is different. While for some teens heat eases the pain, for some it aggravates menstrual cramps. Some teens find that applying cold instead of heat eases cramps. Try putting an ice pack on the abdomen for 15 to 20 minutes. The cold constricts blood vessels, which can bring relief.
Activity: Exercise releases endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers, and will help take your daughter’s mind off the cramps. Keep her active and encourage her to follow the normal routine.
Drinks & Diet: Fresh pineapple juice contains bromelain—an enzyme that relaxes muscles; ginger tea is a soothing, healthy choice for pain relief; and bananas have also been known to help give cramps the boot.
