Contraindications after fire cupping include avoiding water for 12 hours, and not picking the blisters if they appear.
Fire cupping is the use of burning fire to heat up the air inside the canister and adsorb it to the body through negative pressure, so that it can unclog the meridians and be used for the treatment or prevention of certain types of diseases. As the skin coupling (pores) is open after fire cupping, patients should avoid getting wet or bathing within 12 hours, so as to prevent water and moisture from invading the body and causing colds and other illnesses.
Some patients may have blisters if they have been cupping for too long or if their skin is delicate. If such cases occur, they should not be broken without authorization; small blisters can be absorbed on their own, while large blisters should go to the hospital and seek help from the doctor. At the same time need to pay attention to keep the local skin clean and dry, avoid scratching the skin.
If the patient after cupping symptoms of physical discomfort, need to consult a doctor in a timely manner.
