Waist is particularly dark after cupping

Cupping is very effective for patients with low back pain, backache, or even lumbar disc herniation. The air in the burning cup is used to create negative pressure, which is then adsorbed onto the acupuncture points of the human body. It has obvious therapeutic effects in improving waist discomfort, but cupping is best not used by pregnant women and people with poor bones. People with skin ulcers or chronic diseases should not use cupping to solve discomfort symptoms.

First of all, understand that cupping is a therapy that uses a cup as a tool, and utilizes methods such as burning fire and pumping air to create negative pressure, so that it is adsorbed on the body surface, causing local blood stasis, in order to achieve the effects of dredging meridians, promoting qi and blood circulation, reducing swelling and relieving pain, and dispelling wind and cold!

1. The cupping mark is tight, black and dark: it generally indicates blood stasis in the body, such as dysmenorrhea or insufficient blood supply to the heart, and this mark will also appear if the affected area is severely exposed to cold. If the marks do not disappear after several days, it usually means that the disease has been going on for a long time and it will take a long time to cure. If large areas of black and purple marks appear when cupping, it indicates that a large area has been affected by the wind and cold and the treatment should be mainly symptomatic and cold-dispelling.

2. Purple marks from the cupping area accompanied by plaques generally indicate local cold and blood stasis.

3. The cupping marks appear as scattered purple dots of varying depths, generally indicating qi stagnation and blood stasis.

4. Pale purple skin with plaques generally indicates deficiency syndrome with blood stasis. If the spots are obvious at the acupoints, it indicates weakness of the related internal organs. For example, if they appear at the Shenshu acupoints, it indicates kidney deficiency.

5. The cupping marks are bright red and usually indicate Yin deficiency or Qi and Yin deficiency. Yin deficiency and hyperactivity of fire may also occur.

6. The cupping marks are bright red and scattered, usually appearing after cupping over a large area. They do not protrude above the skin. If they are concentrated on a certain acupoint or its vicinity, it indicates that the internal organs related to this acupoint are abnormal or there is a disease. In clinical practice, I often use cupping to find such red spots and use acupuncture to treat and regulate visceral functions.

Most of them are caused by excessive moisture. In fact, pay more attention to your daily diet, especially in summer, don't use air conditioning, don't eat cold food, and maintain good eating habits. In winter, you can choose to soak your feet with ginger and vinegar, because this can help drive away the cold. You should also pay attention to keeping warm.

General: The skin turns purple and black after cupping, which is related to local cold and chronic muscle damage. Cupping can improve the blood stasis state. Guidance: Therefore, the purple and black color that appears after cupping is not a bad thing. After your body recovers, strengthen your physical exercise, and if you cupping again, the color will be much lighter.

Generally, the cupping area will be purple and black. This is not only due to poor blood circulation, but also because of damp and cold air.
