Cupping
Cupping is a traditional Chinese medicine therapy. Its main efficacy includes dredging meridians and collaterals, promoting qi and activating blood, reducing swelling and relieving pain, expelling wind and dispersing cold, and assisting in diagnosis. When cupping, attention should be paid to physical fitness adaptability, selection of cupping parts, control of cupping time, post - cupping care, and professional operation.
The efficacy of cupping:
1. Dredging meridians and collaterals: Cupping forms a negative pressure at specific acupoints, stimulates meridians and promotes the circulation of qi and blood, which helps to relieve pain and discomfort caused by unsmooth meridians.
2. Promoting qi and activating blood: Cupping can promote local blood circulation, help to improve qi - stagnation and blood - stasis, and has a positive effect on relieving symptoms such as muscle soreness and swelling caused by unsmooth qi and blood.
3. Reducing swelling and relieving pain: Cupping can reduce the inflammatory reaction of local tissues. By promoting blood circulation to take away inflammatory factors, it can achieve the effect of reducing swelling and relieving pain.
4. Expelling wind and dispersing cold: For symptoms such as joint pain and muscle stiffness caused by wind - cold - dampness pathogens, cupping helps to disperse cold pathogens and relieve relevant discomfort.
5. Assisting in diagnosis: The color and shape of the marks left on the skin after cupping can provide a reference for traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis, helping to judge the condition and formulate a treatment plan.
The appearance of dark purple skin after cupping generally indicates issues such as heavy dampness in the body, hyperactivity of fire due to yin deficiency, or rheumatoid arthritis in the patient.
1. Heavy dampness in the body: The dark purple color of the skin after cupping may be due to excessive dampness in the patient's body. This is primarily caused by a greasy diet, leading to the accumulation of dampness.
2. Hyperactivity of fire due to yin deficiency: Yin deficiency with hyperactivity of fire may also be one of the reasons for the appearance of dark purple skin after cupping. In such cases, patients may experience symptoms like dry mouth, blurred vision, and tinnitus.
3. Rheumatoid arthritis: Patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis may exhibit dark purple skin after cupping. This is due to the stagnation of qi and blood caused by the condition, allowing wind and cold to accumulate during the cupping process, resulting in skin discoloration.
