Coronary heart disease patients in the early stage of the disease can be cupping treatment, but if the combination of heart failure, edema and other symptoms should not be cupping. Coronary heart disease, known as thoracic paralysis (chest pain) in Chinese medicine, is mainly caused by paralysis and obstruction of the heart veins (referring to stasis of blood, phlegm, yin and cold, and stagnation of qi and other factors that paralyze the heart veins), and poor qi and blood flow. In the early stage of the disease, fire cupping therapy on the acupoints of Neiguan, Xinyu, Pericardial Yu and Fenglong can stimulate the body’s own regulating ability, achieve the effect of adjusting yin and yang, supporting the positive and dispelling the evil (supporting the positive qi and dispelling the evil qi in the body), relaxing the tendons and collaterals, and activating the qi and blood (promoting the gas operation and making the blood circulate), which is effective in the treatment of coronary artery disease. However, if combined with the advanced stage of heart failure patients, should not carry out fire cupping treatment, so as to avoid sudden dyspnea and even the risk of sudden death. In addition, if the skin has ulcers, allergies or edema symptoms are not suitable for fire cupping. Coronary heart disease patients who need fire cupping should go to the hospital in time, after the doctor’s examination, comprehensive assessment, and then decide whether it is necessary to carry out fire cupping treatment.
