Moxibustion on this magical point can help oral ulcers heal quickly!

Many people have suffered from oral ulcers. Those who have had it know the feeling. The pain is severe and it affects eating, talking, and sleeping. It causes all kinds of discomfort. Generally, oral ulcers are caused by getting angry, which can be divided into false fire and real fire. Real fire is easier to eliminate. It can be eliminated directly by eating more foods that reduce fire, while false fire is more difficult to regulate. Some people suggest using moxibustion to treat oral ulcers, but how to use moxibustion to treat it?

As we all know, oral ulcers are related to getting angry, but getting angry can be divided into false fire and real fire.

A real fire

It is the fire generated by the strong evil spirits in the body. You can directly clear the fire. There are several types of real fire:

1. Excessive heart fire

"The heart opens to the tongue", so this type of oral ulcer often occurs on the tip of the tongue or the front edge of the tongue, with burning pain, red color, and a small area, accompanied by symptoms such as hot mouth and thirst, palpitations and irritability, scanty and yellow urine, restless sleep, and a red tip of the tongue.

In addition to eating more bitter foods, such as bitter melon, lotus seeds, etc. to relieve heat, you can also apply moxibustion to the Shenque point more often.

In addition, if there is a problem in the communication between the heart and the kidney, the kidney water cannot go up to help the heart fire, and the fire cannot descend to warm the kidney water, oral ulcers are also prone to occur. At this time, you can also apply moxibustion to the Shenque point.

2. Dampness and heat in the spleen and stomach

If the spleen is weak and transportation and transformation are poor, the stagnation will turn into heat over time, and the spleen and stomach will be in a state of damp heat. Oral ulcers caused by this reason are prone to occur on the lips, cheeks, and tongue edge mucosa.

At this time, the main focus is on clearing stomach fire. Fresh radish juice, mung bean porridge, watermelon, etc. all have the effect of removing stomach fire.

The Shenque point is located right in the center of the abdomen, like a hub. The heat and evil from spleen, stomach problems, bladder and other internal organs can be smoked to the mouth. Therefore, moxibustion on the Shenque point is a magical point for treating various types of oral ulcers!

Two virtual fire

It is caused by the deficiency of the body's positive energy, especially the deficiency of Yin, which is most likely to cause internal heat.

At this time, we should also take into account nourishing yin.

Moxibustion on the Shenque point can not only guide the fire downward, but also regulate the spleen and stomach and promote positive energy. The specific method is: hang moxibustion for 5-10 minutes until the skin turns red, 1-2 times a day.

The mouth is like the entrance to a car's fuel tank, and needs to receive a steady supply of food and drink every day. Like other organs, the mouth can also become diseased, and none is more common than oral ulcers. Although oral ulcers do not seem to be a serious disease, they can make people unable to eat or drink well. The slightest touch can cause excruciating pain, and people worry about it all day long.

So, what causes oral ulcers? There is a saying in Chinese medicine theory that "all diseases of the throat, lips and tongue are caused by fire". The main pathological changes in the throat and mouth - redness, swelling, pain, suppuration, etc. are often attributed to the manifestation of "fire". Internal fire is divided according to the symptoms of different organs, and there are different types of internal fire, such as heart fire, stomach fire, anger, etc. The fire from all the internal organs may rush up to the mouth and throat, among which "excessive heart fire" and "damp heat in the spleen and stomach" are the most common.

For the treatment of these two types of ulcers, in addition to eating more bitter foods, such as bitter melon, lotus seeds, etc. to relieve heart fire, you can also use moxibustion on the Shenque point for prevention and treatment.

Why do we need moxibustion on the Shenque point?

Under normal circumstances, the heart is a fire organ, which is yang and located on top. It warms the earth like the sun, and the warm earth can grow all things. The kidney is a water organ, which is yin and located on the bottom. The heart fire of the human body moves down to the kidney, which can prevent the kidney water from getting cold. The water vapor in the human body's kidneys rushes with the liver qi, which can help the heart fire and prevent it from being too hyperactive! Just like the water in the ocean is reflected by the sun, evaporates and turns into water vapor which rises to form clouds, which can block the heat of the sun. This situation is called the communication between the heart and the kidney.

However, if there is a problem in the communication between the heart and the kidney, the kidney water cannot go up to help the heart fire, and the fire cannot descend to warm the kidney water, then symptoms of getting angry, such as oral ulcers, will appear. The Shenque point located in the center of the abdomen is the gateway for the heart and kidney to connect, and it is the organ that communicates between the heart and the kidney. Therefore, moxibustion on this point is equivalent to re-establishing the connection between the heart and the kidney, allowing the heart and kidney to communicate, and the kidney water to restrain the heart fire, and oral ulcers will naturally no longer appear.

Shenque Point

The Shenque is located in the navel.

Moxibustion at Shenque is also suitable for oral ulcers caused by spleen and stomach heat stagnation, which is related to the "navel is the seat of the spleen" in traditional Chinese medicine.

Choose Shenque point for moxibustion, which can not only guide the fire downward, but also regulate the spleen and stomach and promote positive energy. The specific method is to hang moxibustion for 5 to 10 minutes until the skin turns red, 1 to 2 times a day.

The oral cavity is the first stop for energy supply to the human body. It is responsible for the primary processing of food and is the basis for deep processing of the esophagus and stomach. In order to prevent ulcers from frequently visiting here, we must also pay attention to healthy eating on a daily basis, stay away from fried, greasy junk food, and prevent problems before they occur.
