The functions and effects of moxa ash

Nowadays, many people pay more and more attention to health preservation. Moxibustion is the most common way of health preservation. Many Chinese medicine health centers collect moxibustion ash. In fact, the role of moxibustion ash is very wide. It can not only be used to stop bleeding, but also for baby's red buttocks. What are the roles and effects of moxa ash? The following introduces the roles and effects of moxa ash in detail.

What is the effect of moxibustion ash

1. Stop bleeding

When some part of your body is broken and bleeding, you can mix the ash of moxa into mud and apply it to the wound, and it will heal in a few days. Moxibustion has the effect of activating blood circulation, but moxa ash is a good hemostatic medicine.

2. Baby's red bottom

Babies often have red buttocks, and as a mother, I feel distressed. I have tried many ointments, creams, and oils, but the effects are always recurring. I am especially afraid that the baby will become dependent on the ointment. You can mix wormwood ash and sesame oil and apply it to your baby's red buttocks. Then put on diapers as usual. You will find improvement when you change them next time. Mothers with babies can try it. In fact, this method can also be used to treat adults' eczema.

3. Athlete's foot

Applying moxa ash on the affected area will relieve itching immediately. For common athlete's foot, if you treat it several times a day for a few days, it will be cured! If your athlete's foot is particularly severe, combining it with moxibustion will have better results.

In addition to rhetoric, there is also the problem of athlete's foot. Generally, moxa ash is applied to the affected area, which can effectively relieve the itching. Generally, it will be cured after applying the medicine for a few days. Some can help treat acne. For some red acne, apply a little moxa ash, and the acne will dry up and fall off on its own soon.

The role of wormwood ash

1. Anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effects

When there is a wound, it will be very painful when the wormwood ash is sprinkled on it, just like alcohol being sprinkled on it. It seems that wormwood ash itself has anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effects. After use, local redness, swelling and pain will gradually disappear, indicating that wormwood ash has sustained anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effects.

2. Can help stop bleeding

When a wound is bleeding, continuously sprinkle wormwood ash on the wound and the bleeding will stop soon.

3. Can keep the wound dry

When the wound is bleeding or exuding, sprinkle some wormwood ash on it and the wound will dry quickly. If there is severe exudation in some areas, you can repeatedly sprinkle wormwood ash to keep the wound dry. Ensuring that the wound is dry is the most important thing to avoid infection and is also an indispensable condition for rapid wound healing. The advantage of wormwood ash is irreplaceable by many drugs.

4. Can protect wounds well

When wormwood ash is sprinkled on the wound and absorbs blood or exudate, it will stick tightly to the wound and protect the wound well. Although it feels hard to the touch, the local wound is actually breathable and does not feel tight. Moreover, it will not fall off when it comes into contact with water and is not afraid of being washed away by water. In comparison, the Band-Aid invented by modern people is far inferior.

5. Not easy to leave scars

In fact, whether scars will be left on the skin after an injury depends not only on whether the wound is infected, but also on whether the blood supply to the wound is sufficient. The use of wormwood ash greatly reduces the chance of wound infection, and without infection, ugly scars will not grow. Whether the wound mark disappears completely depends on the depth of the wound. A wound that is too deep will definitely leave a mark but not a scar, and the depth of the mark is related to whether the local blood supply is sufficient. As long as you ensure that there is enough Qi and blood in the body, and frequently apply hot compresses or use moxa sticks to promote local blood supply, I believe the marks left after the injury will be very shallow.

If you encounter bruises, bumps, knife wounds, scalds, burns, etc., as long as the skin is not broken, repeatedly apply raw potato slices to the affected area. It can quickly relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and reduce swelling.
