Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I started having cramps right after my period and they have continued for a week. I usually do not have menstrual cramps and this cycle was very short. I did have intercourse in a hot tub with my husband a day or so before the cramps began. Could that be the cause of cramping and lower back pain?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Having sex in tub could be the cause of back pain. Because of uncomfortable sex positions you may have to take. Avoid those uncomfortable positions. Take analgesics for pain relief and rest yourself. It should relieve your symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
