Patients with underlying lung disease, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, tuberculosis, lung abscess, and bronchiectasis, are not suitable for cupping. When there is inflammation in the lungs, it is often accompanied by damage to the alveoli or retention of body fluid in the lungs. If cupping is used for treatment, it will cause a drastic change in pressure in the chest cavity, leading to rupture of the alveoli on the surface of the lungs, which can lead to spontaneous pneumothorax. After fire cupping, bathing is easy to catch a cold After fire cupping, bathing is not advisable, many people who love bathing in the bath often say “fire cupping and bathing, no less”. Indeed, the warm bath water and warm fire cupping, wash and then cupping, cupping and then washing, think about all comfortable. But this order really should be noted, you can take a bath after the cupping, but definitely not immediately after the cupping bath. After cupping, the skin is in a state of injury and is very fragile, so bathing at this time can easily lead to skin breakage and inflammation. If you take a cold shower, the skin is in a state of open pores, it is easy to get cold. Therefore, you must not take a bath immediately after cupping. Long time cupping can lead to skin infection Many people say that cupping should take at least half an hour, and some people think that cupping can only reflect the effect of cupping if they have blisters, especially some elderly people who hold this view. Fire cupping varies according to the size of the cupping pot, the material, and the strength of the negative pressure. However, it is generally appropriate to start cupping in no more than ten minutes from the time the fire is lit. Because the main principle of fire cupping lies in the negative pressure and not in time, if the cupping time is too long in the case of negative pressure until the blisters are pulled out, this will not only hurt the skin, but may also cause skin infections. Each season cupping to pay attention to 1, spring The weather in the north is dry, especially in spring, and cold and dry. In this environment, human skin lacks moisture, and cupping can easily cause skin rupture. 2.Summer Because of the summer sweating, it is best to take a shower and dry your body before cupping, so that the sweat does not affect the adsorption of the fire cupping. Do not take a shower after cupping, even if your body sweats a lot, to avoid infection. 3, autumn and winter These two seasons are low and dry, so choose a warm room for cupping and pay attention to insulation. For patients who need cupping on the back and abdomen, reduce the cupping time and do not expose the body for too long. Dress promptly after cupping, and drink some hot water to warm up your body. In autumn and winter, when the skin is dry, cupping should be done by lubricating the mouth of the jar to protect the skin from injury.
