When is the best time to apply Sanfutie?

When is the best time to apply Sanfu plaster? We all know that Sanfutie should be applied during the Sanfu days, but as for when to apply it during the day, some people like to apply it at night, which saves time. Is it the right thing to do? When is the best time to apply the Sanfu plaster?

1. Can Sanfutie be applied at night?

It is not recommended to apply it at night. Sanfutie mainly acts as a medicine based on capillaries, so it is most effective when the skin pores are open. However, the skin pores are in dormant mode at night, which is not conducive to taking medicine and the actual effect is not very good. Besides, the doctors who applied Sanfu plaster at night are off work, so it is not recommended if you plan to apply it on yourself at night.

Blindly following the crowd and being deceived, the participating doctors' self-applied medications were ineffective. For example, some patients buy Sanfu stickers from small pharmacies and apply them at home for the sake of convenience. Because the medicine for each of the Sanfu stickers is adjusted by the doctor according to the patient's health condition, and different acupoints are applied to different diseases, the acupoints must be found accurately to be effective. If you only rely on common sense and the "basic knowledge" obtained on the Internet, it will not be serious and detailed, and the treatment effect will not be reflected. If the patch is not properly applied, it will not only be ineffective, but also delay the treatment time.

2. When is the best time to apply Sanfutie?

We all know that Sanfu plaster should be applied during the three-fu days. However, as to when is the best time to apply it during the day, experts say that applying it around 11 a.m. is better than starting to apply it around 1 a.m., as the therapeutic effect will be better.

3. Can the Sanfu plaster be applied at noon?

Sanfutie can also be applied at noon, but the effect will be better in the morning. However, whether in the morning or at noon, the application time should not be too long. Generally, it should not exceed 6 hours for adults, 4 to 5 hours for 12 to 18 years old, 3 to 4 hours for 8 to 12 years old, and 2 to 3 hours for 3 to 8 years old. The medications used for each person are different, and the specific length of time should follow the doctor's advice.
