Everyone has different physiques and different levels of skin sensitivity. Some people's skin is relatively sensitive, and this type of skin is called allergic skin. People with allergic physiques will be allergic to many things. Some skin allergies are caused by many red rashes on the body, while others feel itchy skin. If you want to treat skin allergies, you can use moxibustion. So where is the best place to use moxibustion for skin allergies? Why does the skin itch after moxibustion? 1. Most of them are normal detoxification reactions of moxibustion It is normal for the skin to itch after moxibustion. This is one of the normal reactions after moxibustion, and it is caused by wind, cold and dampness in the body. Both essential oil massage and moxibustion can promote the excretion of toxins in the body, some of which are excreted through the skin. When these things are discharged into the skin, they will irritate the skin and cause itching. As long as you can tolerate it, you don't need to pay attention to it. If you can't tolerate it, just stop using moxibustion and essential oil massage. After moxibustion, rashes appear on the skin, and symptoms such as unbearable itching, irritability and shortness of breath are all caused by dampness, coldness and wind in different internal organs of the body from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine. The pathogens are driven out of the internal organs, blood, and other tissues and organs and enter the skin. When they are being driven out, rashes with various symptoms will appear on the skin. This is the detoxification and disease elimination reaction in traditional Chinese medicine. Similar to the rashes mentioned in Western medicine, some are unbearably itchy, some are painful, some ooze yellow fluid, and some are dry and flaky... The more itchy it is, the heavier and deeper the poison is, and the more serious the damage to the internal organs, blood, and organs. If the pathogenic factors can penetrate to this extent, it can be judged that the pathogenic factors have been inside for a long time, and it can be called a "long-term chronic disease". Such patients are often quite impatient. Since they have a chronic disease, they need to use moxibustion for a period of time to detoxify the body. Don't be impatient. 2. It may also be an allergic reaction to moxibustion Of course, if the itching is too severe and does not go away after a few weeks, it cannot be completely ruled out that you are allergic to moxibustion. In that case, you are not suitable for moxibustion. However, people with this allergic constitution are rare, and most of the time it is due to detoxification reactions. How long does itching last after moxibustion? If itching occurs frequently at the moxibustion site, it means that there is a lot of cold evil in the body, the heat from moxibustion cannot overcome the cold evil in the limbs, and the meridians are also in a blocked state. This state is very itchy after moxibustion because of the collision of heat and cold. The vitality of moxibustion enters the body to expel the cold evil. The reaction on the body surface is itching, rashes, and pimples. Some people will even have rough skin. Patients with severe cold body will frequently experience such symptoms during moxibustion. If you ask when it will get better, I can only tell you that when you feel warmth in the extremities after moxibustion, the cold in the body will gradually retreat, and the itching symptoms will also improve, and the roughness of the skin will also improve. But this process does take quite a long time. What to do if the skin is itchy after moxibustion The symptoms of itching are mostly the manifestation of wind, cold and dampness on the body surface. At this time, if you want to control the itching, one is to prick the point here for bloodletting and then cupping, the second is to scrape the body surface to expel the pathogenic factors, and the third is to continue moxibustion. If these three methods are used for comprehensive treatment, the effect should be very good. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the lungs control the skin and fur, which means that the lungs control the skin and fur of the entire body. If there are skin problems, the lungs must of course be considered. The lungs and large intestine are the exterior and interior of each other, with the lungs inside and the large intestine outside. The waste in the lungs should be discharged through the large intestine. If the itching is severe, you can also use moxibustion on Quchi, which is the He point of the large intestine meridian. Xuehai and Geshu can relieve itching and reduce and avoid the occurrence of large rashes and bumps. The symptoms shown by each person are different. You need to observe more. I believe that after a period of moxibustion, when the toxins in your body are almost eliminated, , this itch will pass. |
