for many Northerners in autumn and winter, they like to pull out a fire pot after bathing in the bathhouse, but some people pull out a big blister when they pull out the fire pot. Do you know what's going on? Do you know the specific treatment method after pulling out the blister?
What's the reason for the blister in cupping
1. Individual physical differences
The constitution of each person is different. Some people have sensitive skin reactions after cupping, and blisters may appear on their skin. Or the body moisture is heavier, blistering can also be seen as a kind of reaction to eliminate the evil from the body.
2. Too long to keep cans
Generally speaking, the time of can retention should be controlled at about 10-15 minutes. When the time comes, the can will be started immediately. Everyone's tolerance is different, and the patient's feelings should be the main factor. If the patient feels burning pain or the filling mouth sucks too tightly, the can should be lifted in advance, otherwise it is likely to form blisters.
3. Too strong flash tank
Flash cupping refers to the cupping method that takes the cupping off immediately after the cupping, so repeatedly, until the skin is flushed and congested.
The strength of the flash tank is too large, which exceeds the skin's bearing capacity. If it is pulled by brute force, it may cause skin damage and form blisters.
4. Tank temperature too high
When burning the pot, the firepower is too large, the pot mouth is too hot, and then it is quickly buckled on the skin, which is easy to burn the skin and form blisters. This kind of situation seldom occurs when the tank is left, generally occurs when the tank is flashed, so when the tank is flashed, pay attention to place the combustor near the bottom of the tank, do not touch the edge of the tank mouth, to prevent the tank mouth from burning too hot and scalding the skin and blistering.
5. Reason for cupping position
The sensitivity and tolerance of different parts of each person are also different. Some parts may be easy to blister, generally speaking, the back, two flanks and buttocks are easy to blister.
