How is bloodletting therapy for pharyngitis

Bloodletting is a traditional treatment method in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It has a certain therapeutic effect on removing blood stasis and relieving swelling and pain. Of course, its side effects are also obvious. If bloodletting is not treated properly, it can easily lead to infection. For patients with pharyngitis, unless it is particularly serious, they can go to a regular Chinese medicine hospital and choose an experienced Chinese medicine doctor to treat this aspect.

Is bloodletting a good treatment for pharyngitis?

Bleeding at the Dazhui point combined with cupping can treat sore throat, relieve excess heat and reduce acute fire. After a bloodletting treatment, patients often feel their throat pain relieved, rarely experience high fever symptoms again, and the course of the disease is significantly shortened. Generally once a week is enough, 3 to 5 times as a course of treatment.

This therapy uses a very small amount of blood, and involves bleeding after pricking with a three-edged needle or a plum blossom needle. Its main purpose is to open the orifices, release heat, dredge the meridians and activate the collaterals. It is particularly suitable for TCM excess heat syndrome with rapid onset and main symptoms such as high fever, swelling and pain. When the patient has obvious symptoms of heat toxicity, such as high fever, constipation, severe sore throat, or even the appearance of pus spots, bloodletting at the "dazhui" point behind the neck is more effective. In addition, cupping therapy can be used in this area, which helps to reduce fever, strengthen the body's body and eliminate evil, and has a better effect in adjusting the balance of yin and yang in the body.

What should you pay attention to when you have pharyngitis?

1. Quit smoking, drinking, and stimulating beverages. Tobacco, alcohol and stimulating beverages will irritate the throat mucosa, damage the mucosa, and are not conducive to the recovery of pharyngitis.

2. Do not eat or eat less irritating foods, such as fried, spicy, and stimulating snacks or dishes. Eat more fruits rich in vitamin A and B, such as kiwi, apple, mango, etc. Vitamin-rich fruits can effectively restore the regeneration of throat mucosal tissue and effectively treat pharyngitis.

3. Once pharyngitis occurs, it must be treated actively, and attention must be paid to diet in all aspects of life. Preventive work on pharyngitis from all aspects should be done to prevent recurrence of the disease.
