What is the simplest and most effective way to relieve stomach pain?

Stomachache is quite common in daily life. For example, it can be caused by catching a cold or improper diet. At this time, you can massage your abdomen to promote the work of the digestive system. You can also massage the Neiguan point and Zusanli point to promote the smooth flow of meridians. You should also pay attention to your diet. Be sure to chew slowly and try to eat less food that is not easy to digest.

1. Massage the abdomen

Cross your hands, with the right hand on top and the left hand on the bottom for men; the left hand on top and the right hand on the bottom for women. With the navel as the center, rub the abdomen to draw the Tai Chi diagram, 36 circles clockwise and 36 circles counterclockwise. This method can relieve pain and bloating and increase appetite.

2. Massage Neiguan

The Neiguan point is located in the middle of the wrist, about three horizontal fingers (the width of three fingers put together) away from the transverse wrist crease, and is located between the two tendons. Use your thumbs to massage and circle the area 36 times, alternating between your hands. When pain occurs, increase the number to 200 times.

3. Press Zusanli

The Zusanli point is located three inches below the edge of the knee (equivalent to the width of four fingers put together), between the tibia and fibula. Press the Zusanli point with the tips of your thumbs, 36 times at normal times. When it hurts, you can rub it about 200 times, with a slightly heavier pressure.

4. Suitable temperature

The temperature of food should be neither too hot nor too cold. Otherwise, overly hot or overly cold food will irritate the gastric mucosa after entering the stomach over time. It can easily cause stomach problems.

5. Chew slowly

Chew your food thoroughly and make it as small as possible to reduce the workload of your stomach. The more you chew, the more saliva you secrete, which has a protective effect on the gastric mucosa.

Nowadays, many people eat carelessly, which makes their stomachs bad. In severe cases, it may even cause stomach pain. More and more people have bad stomachs. If you encounter a patient with emergency stomach pain, follow the above method to relieve the stomach pain.
