Scraping and cupping are a health care and medical method commonly adopted by the Chinese people. Usually, there are many people around us who like to go to some places for scraping. Many scars will appear during scraping. Many people don’t know why the skin appears red, purple, or black. When this happens, what do we need to pay attention to? What do the color and marks of the sha after scraping the neck mean? Why does scraping the neck cause sha? The sha phenomenon on the neck indicates that you may suffer from chronic pharyngitis, tonsils, bronchitis or other nearby tissue and organ diseases. Gua Sha is guided by the theory of meridians and acupoints in traditional Chinese medicine. It is recommended to use special scraping instruments and corresponding techniques, dip a certain medium, and repeatedly scrape and rub the body surface to cause the appearance of red millet-like or dark red bleeding spots on the local skin, thereby achieving the effect of activating blood circulation and removing sha. The appearance of sha during scraping indicates that local lesions have occurred. The reason why scraping causes sha 1. Sha refers to the phenomenon that red, purple, black spots or black blisters appear on the skin surface after scraping, also known as sha marks. These changes in the skin may last from 1 day to several days. 2. The depth of the color of sha usually reflects the severity of the disease. If the disease is more serious, more sha will appear and the color will be darker. If the disease is less serious, less sha will appear and the color will be lighter. 3. Generally, the blood stasis on the skin will gradually subside within 3-5 days, and will return to normal in no more than 1 week. Not only will it not damage the skin, but because this method can invigorate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, it will strengthen local blood circulation and make the skin healthier and more beautiful than before. 4. For healthy people, after systematic health scraping, generally no sha will appear, only skin flushing, local fever, and body relaxation. 5. Judge health status by the location of sha. Sha is prone to occur in meridian circulation routes and acupoint areas, indicating functional lesions in the internal organs connected to the corresponding meridians. For example, if sha spots or purple sha appear in the Xinshu point area after evenly scraping the bladder meridian on the back, it means that there are abnormal changes in heart function and health care should be taken early. 6. The sha pattern can be used to determine the degree of recovery. If scattered sha appears and is light in color, it means the condition is mild and easy to recover; if there are many sha spots and they are large and lumpy, or there are purple blood bags, etc., it means the condition is severe and requires multiple health care to recover. 7. Sha syndrome is different from sha outbreak. Sha syndrome refers to a number of diseases that occur frequently between summer and autumn, caused by exposure to the six evil spirits of wind, cold, heat, dampness, dryness and fire, or by epidemic, foul and toxic gases. Symptoms such as headache, fever, cough, restlessness, dizziness, chest tightness, abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting, swelling and pain in the hands, feet, head, face, body, and dark blue nails are called sha syndrome, sha qi or sha zhang. 8. During the scraping process, when sha marks appear locally, change to light scraping to make the sha slowly come out to relieve pain, which is called penetrating sha. For some people with neuromuscular paralysis, it is not easy for sha to appear after scraping. Do not scrape hard or hard to force the appearance of sha. It is better to scrape several times. When sha appears naturally, it means that the condition has improved. This is also called penetrating sha. 9. If blood clots or blood vessels float in clusters when scraping the lower limbs, it means that the venous circulation function is poor. You should immediately use the light scraping method to scrape in the reverse direction, and protect the skin to promote blood return. |
