Cupping is a traditional Chinese medicine that creates negative pressure on the surface of the acrylic to dilate local blood vessels, promote blood circulation, and relieve muscle pain and tension. Many people will leave some blood stasis on the ** after using cupping, which raises people's questions: Are these blood stasis really toxins in the body?
First of all, we need to be clear that the blood stasis sucked out by cupping is not a toxin in the body. Toxin is a broad concept that usually refers to substances that are harmful to the human body, such as bacteria, viruses, chemicals, etc. The blood stasis sucked out by cupping is actually a blood clotting formed after the rupture of a local blood vessel.
So, why is there blood stasis? This is because in the process of cupping, the local ** is heated, the blood vessels dilate, when the cupping is removed, the local pressure drops sharply, and the blood vessels contract rapidly, resulting in blood oozing into the surrounding tissues. In this process, the capillaries under ** rupture, and the red blood cells in the blood leak out, forming blood stasis.
One might ask, then why does the body feel relaxed after cupping? This is because during the cupping process, local blood vessels dilate, blood circulation accelerates, and metabolites are cleared, while local muscle tension is relieved, thus making the body feel relaxed.
So, what should be done with the blood stasis sucked out of cupping? First of all, don't worry too much, these bruisings will gradually dissipate over time. Secondly, some topical medications, such as ointments or herbs that promote blood stasis and remove blood stasis, can be used to promote the absorption of blood stasis. In addition, proper massage and warm compresses can also help the blood stasis dissipate.
In conclusion, the blood stasis sucked out by cupping is not a toxin in the body, but a blood clotting formed after the rupture of a local blood vessel. Cupping can improve blood circulation and relieve muscle pain and tension, but be careful to use it correctly and avoid burns and infections along the way. If the bruising lasts for a long time, or if it is accompanied by other symptoms, it is advisable to consult a doctor.
