Is it normal to have lower back pain after cupping

Although the cupping process looks very scary, the therapeutic effect of cupping on the human body cannot be ignored, because cupping mainly uses the principle of air pressure to draw out some stagnant air in the human body. Therefore, when people feel unwell, they can be treated by cupping. But some people experience more discomfort after cupping, such as back pain. What's going on?

Some patients experience lower back pain after cupping because they suffer from lumbar muscle strain. If the patient does not pay attention to keeping the body warm after cupping, it will also cause back pain. The patient should go to the hospital for examination and treatment. Only after determining the cause of the back pain can medication be used. The patient should be careful not to do strenuous exercise. People should understand the causes and treatment methods of lower back pain after cupping.

Before cupping, many people suffered from lumbar muscle strain and lumbar disc herniation due to high-intensity physical labor or intense sports. Cupping can make the patient's back pain worse. In this case, the patient needs to go to the hospital to check his cervical spine and waist muscles. If cervical disc herniation occurs, traction may be required for treatment.

Different patients may experience different reasons for lower back pain after cupping. Some patients may suffer from lower back pain because cupping lasts too long and damages the skin, or because of poor blood circulation. In this case, patients should properly condition their skin. They can use hot compresses or massage to reduce pain and promote blood circulation. Patients should pay attention to bed rest.

If patients experience lower back pain after cupping, they should pay attention and use appropriate painkillers for treatment.

Patients should pay attention to actively cooperate with medical staff during treatment and eat a light diet while taking medication. Patients must pay attention to the cleanliness and warmth of the affected area, and do not let the affected area get cold.

To sum up, in our lives, many patients experience back pain after cupping. This may be caused by factors such as lumbar spine disease, poor blood circulation, and failure to pay attention to keeping the body warm.
