Is this normal?: Cramping can be normal for several days after a period. It really depends if this is normal for you or not. Try using tylenol (acetaminophen) and Ibuprofen for pain management as well as a heating pad over your abdomen to reduce discomfort. If you are still having issues, you should see your family practice physician.
