Which part of the body can be cupped to relieve internal heat

In fact, cupping can be used to achieve certain therapeutic effects for different disease symptoms in the human body. Although cupping looks scary, it still has a very significant effect on the human body. When the human body shows more serious symptoms of getting angry, cupping can be used. Now I will explain to you which parts of your body can be cupped to relieve heat.

1. Use cupping, scraping, and acupuncture to eliminate internal heat

1. The symptoms of getting angry are mild

If the symptoms of getting angry are mild, the simplest way is to buy skin needles and use them to frequently tap acupoints such as Dazhui (on the posterior midline, in the depression below the spinous process of the seventh cervical vertebra), Quchi (bend the elbow to a right angle, at the midpoint of the line connecting the lateral end of the elbow transverse line and the lateral epicondyle of the humerus), Hegu (at the base of the hand, in the depression between the first and second metacarpal bones), and Quze (in the elbow transverse line, on the ulnar edge of the biceps tendon) until the acupoints appear light blood-colored, which can have a better effect in removing heat.

2. Severe symptoms of getting angry

If the symptoms of getting angry are severe, you can use cupping and scraping to get rid of the heat. First apply lubricating oil or cooking oil on the body, and then use cupping or scraping along the "bladder meridian" on the back (1.5 inches on both sides of the center of the spine) or "pericardium meridian" (inside the upper arm). Do this once a day or every other day depending on the severity of your inflammation. Stop when your skin becomes flushed or red spots appear.

3. The symptoms of getting angry are very severe

If the symptoms of getting angry are very severe and last for a long time, you can consider "puncture and bloodletting" - use silver needles to lightly prick the Dazhui, Quchi, Hegu, Quze and other acupoints, and then cupping at the punctured areas to release the internal heat through bleeding. This method seems a bit risky and difficult to master. But now there are special "blood-letting needles" for sale, which have a fixed insertion length of the needle to ensure safety. This method is very effective in removing heat.

2. Stimulate acupoints and treat various symptoms of internal heat

1. Dry throat

If your throat is dry, you can frequently massage the Yuji point (the depression behind the first metacarpophalangeal joint of the thumb, approximately on the radial side of the midpoint of the first metacarpal bone, at the junction of the red and white flesh), Shaoshang point (the inner side of the thumb, one fen outside the corner of the nail), and Lianquan point (on the neck of the hand, on the anterior midline, above the larynx, in the depression above the hyoid bone).

2. Dry stool

If the stool is dry, you can massage the Tianshu point (2 inches away from the navel) frequently; if there is internal heat and fear of wind, you can press the Waiguan point (2 inches above the transverse wrist line on the back of the hand, between the ulna and radius, on the line connecting the Yangchi and the tip of the elbow) and the Fengmen point (1.5 inches away from the 2nd and 3rd thoracic vertebrae).

Warm reminder: The most important thing in daily health care is to maintain a peaceful mind and a nutritious diet, and try to avoid excessive accumulation of internal heat. The method of relieving heat should be chosen appropriately, and it is best to do it under the guidance of a professional for the first time.
