Mugwort and Sichuan pepper for eczema

The weather is cool, which is the weather most people like. In this comfortable climate, everyone needs to pay attention to their skin. The weather is dry, which is when eczema is most prevalent. Many middle-aged and elderly people with dry skin have insufficient sebum secretion and are prone to "sebaceous eczema." The extreme itchiness of eczema is really unbearable. Many people ask: Can mugwort and Sichuan pepper treat eczema? In fact, pepper can not treat eczema, but will aggravate the condition, but wormwood can. Let's take a look at the specific treatment methods:

1. Take a bath

Dry the fresh mugwort leaves or buy dried mugwort leaves directly, take about four leaves, wash away the impurities with clean water, put them in a pot, add water and bring to a boil, then continue to cook on low heat for about 5-10 minutes. At this time, take out the mugwort leaves, pour the juice into the bathtub, and use it for bathing when the temperature is suitable.

Taking a bath in water boiled with mugwort leaves to treat eczema is a relatively traditional method, which is more suitable for people who suffer from eczema over a large area.

2. Apply directly to the affected area

Boil the mugwort leaves into concentrated water, put it into a bottle and store it in the refrigerator. Apply an appropriate amount to the affected area every day and you will see obvious results after 3-7 days.

3. Smoked skin

Put mature mugwort leaves in a pot, light them, and use the smoke from the burning leaves to smoke the lesions on the eczema. When wormwood is burned, a large amount of volatile oil will appear. This substance can kill bacteria, but at the same time it is also toxic. Therefore, patients should be cautious if they do not understand how wormwood can treat eczema.

4. Cooking Soup

Mugwort has long been widely used as an internal medicine to treat diseases in my country, so you can boil mugwort with an appropriate amount of sugar and drink the soup. This method aims to clear away heat and dampness, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. It is a good method to treat eczema with mugwort.

When treating eczema, be sure to choose fresh mugwort leaves for treatment, rather than old mugwort leaves. Otherwise, not only will it fail to achieve the effect of treating and maintaining the body, but it may also harm your health.

However, it should be noted that although mugwort has certain antiviral and bactericidal effects, it cannot completely cure eczema. It can only effectively alleviate the condition and reduce the itching caused by eczema. If you want to completely cure eczema, it is best to go to a regular hospital for a detailed examination, and then use Yuhuitang anti-itch repair ointment for external application treatment.
