What diseases can be transmitted by scraping

Gua Sha may transmit blood-borne diseases, such as hepatitis or AIDS. Gua Sha can effectively promote blood circulation and dredge meridians, remove cold and moisture from the body, promote the body's metabolism, and help to quickly excrete toxins from the body. When observing, you must stay clean to avoid infection.

1. Hepatitis: Hepatitis refers to a chronic hepatitis caused by abnormal liver function. It is contagious and is generally transmitted through blood, sexual transmission, mother-to-child transmission, etc. It may also be caused by long-term bad living habits, such as frequent drinking or viral infection, and contact with sick patients, which can cause liver damage. If the instruments are not cleaned properly during scraping, and the specific scraper of scraping comes into contact with the diseased blood and is not disinfected properly, liver disease may occur. After suffering from liver disease, you should take antiviral drugs under the guidance of a doctor in time, and take liver-protecting drugs to avoid liver damage, such as the liver-protecting tablets entecavir.

2. AIDS: AIDS is usually a disease caused by HIV infection which leads to immune system defects in the body. It can be transmitted through blood, sexual transmission, mother-to-child transmission and other means. If the instruments are not disinfected during scraping, you may also be infected with HIV. The incubation period of HIV in the body may be as long as half a year. The patient will experience symptoms such as night sweats, fever, oral herpes, etc.
