It is an ancient method to stir-fry Jiang Mo and Yongquan Point on the sole of the foot. A Chinese doctor told me before that cutting ginger into pieces and applying it to Yongquan point on the baby's sole after a little frying can dispel the cold, because it corresponds to the kidney meridian of the foot, and the ingredients in ginger can act on the whole body after being absorbed through the skin. It is a feasible alternative for babies who refuse or can't drink ginger soup.
Ginger is warm, can relieve exterior cold, warm stomach and stop vomiting. Its effective components are mainly gingerol, gingerol and some aromatic components, which can promote blood circulation, improve immune cell activity and enhance the antiviral ability of the body. Drinking ginger soup directly has a good effect on dispelling cold, but many times the baby refuses to drink it. Ginger is too spicy, so it is much more acceptable to apply Jiang Mo to your feet at this time. How?
Materials: One piece of ginger (about 20g), and two pieces are applied aseptically.
I happened to see this application in a drugstore. It's too convenient not to wrap gauze on the soles of your feet. Anyway, the ultimate goal is to stick Jiang Mo on the soles of your feet, and it is as convenient as possible.
1, ginger minced;
2. Pour Jiang Mo into an oil-free and water-free non-stick pan, stir-fry and fry the water until the surface is slightly burnt;
3, aseptic dressing and tearing, there is such a piece of glue, a piece of gauze is sandwiched in the middle, Jiang Mo is placed on the fried cloth, and then directly attached to the baby's sole;
4. Stick it on the Yongquan point of the sole of your foot, put on your socks after sticking it, and take it off before going to bed the next day, during the cold;
Compared with drinking ginger soup directly, this external application is weaker. It is suitable for nasal congestion and cough after feeling a cold at first, and it should have no effect if it is a little more serious. Similarly, if it is cough with yellow phlegm and runny nose, it is not suitable for use.
The baby's nasal congestion can also be relieved by rubbing the Xiang Ying point, so that the baby can smell the hot water and apply a hot towel on the external nose.
In the folk prescription, Jiang Mo's hot compress on Yongquan point can alleviate the cold to some extent, because Chinese medicine thinks Yongquan point is a place where the spring water of kidney meridian gushes, which has the effect of "treating the upper disease". However, ginger juice is irritating to the skin, so it is not suitable for adults with damaged skin and children with delicate skin. Moreover, the weather is cold in winter, even if Jiang Mo is bombed, it will soon cool down, and its heat is difficult to conduct from the soles of the feet to the nasal cavity. Therefore, it is not recommended that you use this prescription externally. People with cold and cold can use onion and ginger slices instead of tea to boil water.
It is worth noting that the early symptoms of wind-heat cold are very similar to those of wind-cold cold. If people with wind-heat colds mistakenly use drugs to treat wind-cold colds, they will aggravate their symptoms in disguise.
If the elderly can't judge what kind of cold they belong to, it's best not to take drugs at will. It is suggested to consult professional Chinese medicine practitioners first, and then treat them according to syndrome differentiation.
