The benefits of ten toe bloodletting

Bleeding from ten toes is called bloodletting therapy. It has a therapeutic effect on diseases such as gout, hyperthyroidism, hair loss, etc. It can also remove blood stasis, dredge meridians, and regulate qi and blood. It was one of the major methods of traditional Chinese medicine in the Tang and Song dynasties. The bloodletting sites for different diseases are different, and bloodletting from the toes can relieve headaches and draw blood and qi downward to relieve headaches. When bloodletting, the bloodletting site needs to be disinfected with alcohol and punctured quickly with a bloodletting needle. Be careful not to let too much blood out.

Bloodletting therapy is also known as "acupuncture bloodletting therapy". It is a method of treating diseases by piercing or scratching the superficial meridians of specific acupuncture points in the human body with a three-edged needle, a thick fine needle or a small sharp knife to release a small amount of blood, thereby discharging the internal heat and toxins. It has the effects of reducing swelling and relieving pain, dispelling wind and relieving itching, opening the orifices and relieving heat, suppressing vomiting and stopping diarrhea, and promoting blood circulation and activating collaterals.

The operation methods of bloodletting therapy in traditional Chinese medicine are divided into: pricking (also known as quick pricking); picking pricking (mostly used for bloodletting in the chest, back and behind the ears); slow pricking (mostly used for bloodletting in the superficial veins of the elbows and popliteal fossa); surrounding pricking (also known as scattered pricking. Used for pricking bleeding around lesions such as skin diseases), etc. In terms of nursing, strict reminders are given: this method should not be used for people with weak constitutions, pregnant women, or those with poor coagulation mechanisms. Special emphasis is placed on steady, accurate, and gentle techniques rather than overly forceful ones, and on not allowing excessive bloodletting. It can be seen that the application of traditional Chinese medicine's bloodletting therapy in nursing is strictly regulated! (1) Cooling down high fever: puncture and bloodletting at Dazhui and Shixuan points; (2) Sore throat: puncture and bloodletting at Shaoshang point; (3) Headache: puncture and bloodletting at the temples; (4) Heatstroke: puncture and bloodletting at Shixuan point; (5) Itching all over the body: puncture and bloodletting at the posterior auricular vein; (6) For neurodermatitis, erysipelas, carbuncles and boils, puncture and bloodletting around the lesions and corresponding parts; (7) Acute gastroenteritis: slow puncture and bloodletting at Quze and Weizhong points.

Bloodletting to relieve fire

Internal disturbance of fire and heat can lead to a variety of symptoms, causing patients to experience sores in the mouth and tongue, swelling and pain in the limbs, irritability, fever and other symptoms. The method of cupping and bloodletting can stop the fire and heat and discharge it with the blood, which is suitable for the treatment of a variety of heat syndromes.

Bloodletting to reduce swelling and relieve pain

When the body's meridians are stagnant due to stagnation of qi and blood, swelling and pain will occur. Cupping and bloodletting can directly eliminate the stagnant qi, blood and pathogens in the local meridians, restore the smooth flow of the meridians, and achieve the purpose of reducing swelling and relieving pain.

Bloodletting to detoxify

When the body is in a pathological state, it cannot resist toxins due to its own dysfunction, which will lead to the generation of heat toxins in the body and symptoms such as sores, carbuncles and ulcers. Cupping and bloodletting can not only expel the toxins that have invaded the body with the blood, but also regulate blood and qi, restore the body's functions to normal, and inhibit the spread or recurrence of pathogens.

Bleeding to relieve itching

Itching symptoms on the skin are a manifestation of the presence of wind evil in the blood vessels. Therefore, Chinese medicine has the treatment principle of "treating the blood before treating the wind". Cupping and bloodletting can regulate blood and qi, promote the smooth flow of blood vessels, force the wind evil to dissipate, and achieve the effect of dispelling wind and relieving itching.
