Dull pain in lower abdomen after moxibustion

The pain in the lower abdomen after moxibustion is not severe, but it is easy to cause discomfort due to personal reasons. For example, catching a cold, turning on the air conditioner directly after moxibustion, causing serious blockage in the body, or getting easily angry in daily life can easily cause abdominal pain after moxibustion. Keeping a happy mood is also the most critical point in treating diseases. Not only is the treatment effect fast but the effect is obvious.

This type of reaction is particularly common in female patients who are introverted and narrow-minded. The reaction usually lasts from a few hours to 1-3 days, and in a few patients it can last for several months.

3. Reactions related to expectoration

The discharge of phlegm and dampness is mostly manifested by coughing, spitting, increased phlegm, vomiting, spitting or abdominal pain, diarrhea, watery stools, or sticky and cold stools. Swelling of the head, face, limbs, half of the body, or even the whole body; difficulty urinating or frequent urination with turbid and pungent smell; cold and sticky sweat in some parts or all over the body. The moxibustion sensation can change from the initial dull type to the sensitive type

4. Reactions related to expelling heat, evil and toxins

The expulsion of heat and evil toxins usually takes the form of itchy sores, carbuncles, fever, eczema-like itching, papules on the face or body, or pustules that appeared long ago and have reappeared now, or burning sensations in the urine and stool. Don't worry, as long as it is completely discharged, it will be fine.

5. Reactions related to blood removal

Blood stasis in the meridians on the surface of the body is discharged in the form of ecchymosis. Blood stasis in the gastrointestinal tract is mostly discharged in the form of dark brown or black stool. Blood stasis in the heart and lungs is mostly discharged in the form of sputum with blood clots. Blood stasis in the uterus is mostly discharged with menstrual blood, and may even have tissue lumps or rotten meat inside. People with hemorrhoids will temporarily have bloody stools, and the color is very dark.

6. Sleep-related reactions

The sleeping condition of most people will change after moxibustion treatment. Some people will feel weak and sleepy at first, and then suffer from insomnia for several days. Generally, they do not feel tired, drowsy, or lose their appetite when suffering from insomnia. Some people suffer from insomnia for ten days or so and then start to feel sleepy all day long. The final result is that sleep returns to normal. Insomnia: There are often symptoms of insomnia after moxibustion. If insomnia occurs after the first moxibustion, it is also a reaction. At this time, insomnia is mostly caused by fatigue, weakness, or drowsiness. But after a period of moxibustion, even if you sleep very little, you will not feel tired and weak. Instead, you will feel energetic because of moxibustion. At this time, don't worry about lack of sleep time, and don't deliberately use sleeping pills to make up for enough sleep time. It mainly depends on whether you have enough energy. Moxibustion Zhongwan will quickly improve the function of the spleen.

7. Fever reaction

Fever reaction is one of the severe comprehensive reactions of the whole body. It usually occurs after the body's own healing function has fully exerted its effect, indicating that Qi and blood are vigorous and physical fitness is enhanced. It is the turning point from quantitative change to qualitative change of the body. Generally, the high fever reaction is when the body temperature is between 39 and 40 degrees, and the reaction lasts for about a week. In a few patients with low fever, when the body temperature is between 37.5 and 38 degrees, the reaction lasts for more than ten days or even one to two months.

8. Other reactions

It can be said that diseases you have suffered from before may recur many times. Although they are recurrences, the feelings are generally not stronger than previous attacks. People who have suffered from hemorrhoids will also have an attack, and the internal hemorrhoids will turn into external hemorrhoids, which will heal on their own in about ten days to half a month.

9. After moxibustion, the disease often worsens, which is a normal phenomenon of the battle between good and evil. Our human body is a whole, with the distinction between yin and yang. It is impossible to allow only positive energy to exist and expel all negative energy. If the disease has been living in the body for a long time, he will not succumb easily. So there will inevitably be a reaction at this time. You use moxibustion to stimulate the positive energy and want to drive me out, so I will resist stubbornly first. At this time, when the positive energy is insufficient and the negative energy is strong, of course you will have various uncomfortable reactions. As you gradually perform moxibustion and a lot of positive energy accumulates in your body, the pathogenic factors will gradually be driven out of the body.

10. The phenomenon of moxibustion. Sometimes when we perform moxibustion on Zhongwan, there will be discomfort in the liver area or in the epigastric area. This is very likely because there is a hidden problem in your liver or a disease in your stomach. Moxibustion will actively help you adjust. This is the function of moxibustion. So, our body has a self-adjusting function, and as long as you mobilize it well, all of these will start to work. If you use moxibustion on the Guanyuan acupoint, it may reveal your gynecological problems, prostate problems, or some diseases of the reproductive system. The rise and fall of "yin and yang" in the human body follows a fixed law. As the vital energy gradually becomes sufficient, "yin and yang" will surely operate according to its law; what should rise will naturally rise, and what should fall will naturally fall. There is no need to use artificial methods to adjust the rise and fall.

11. The phenomenon of getting angry due to moxibustion. Many people will experience dry mouth and tongue after moxibustion. This is also a reaction of moxibustion. This phenomenon indicates that yin and yang are adjusting, and yang cannot overcome yin. At this time, you should drink more boiled water. At this time, the patient will feel an abnormally dry and sore throat, which is an inevitable symptom when the pathogenic factors (cold pathogens) gradually spread outward (wherever the pathogenic factors are driven out, there will be what Western medicine calls inflammation. At this time, many Chinese medicine experts will think that moxibustion is excessive and will immediately stop the treatment, causing the effect to fail).

12. After moxibustion, the body experiences allergy-like symptoms. Many people develop many red rashes on their bodies after moxibustion. At this time, most people think it is an allergy. In fact, these symptoms are the manifestation of the true yang energy driving out the cold evil. It is also the reaction of pathogenic factors on the body surface. If you stop moxibustion at this time, the pathogenic factors will enter the body and erode the internal organs. If the skin symptoms are severe at this time, bloodletting can be used to expel the evil. You can perform bloodletting at the Dazhui point, acupoints of the Foot-Taiyang Bladder Meridian, and the Weizhong point to eliminate pathogenic factors.
