What is a three-volt sticker? What is the function of the three-volt sticker?
The so-called dog-day patch is the application of white mustard seed and kansui isothermal medicine in the hottest dog days of the year to supplement the yang in the body and force out the cold evil in the body, so as to achieve the purpose of "treating winter diseases in summer" in the dog days. It is mainly used for treating respiratory diseases due to deficiency and cold, diseases due to deficiency and cold of spleen and stomach, cold arthritis of lower limbs, dysmenorrhea due to uterine cold, and irregular menstruation of women.
Some friends have doubts, can a dog patch cure so many diseases?
In fact, we see that the appearance of the three-volt patch is the same, but the drugs inside are different according to different diseases, and different prescriptions are used for different types of diseases. But the same thing is that the three-volt patch is mainly used to treat cold diseases.
Someone will have questions? Why should winter diseases be treated in summer? Winter doesn't solve the problem?
In fact, according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, yang is nourished in spring and summer, and yin is nourished in autumn and winter, because the yang in autumn and winter is hidden in the body, which is difficult to treat, but the yang rises in spring and summer and goes up outwards. At this time, the use of warm drugs and reasonable selection of drugs to dredge meridians can help yang in the body and better expel cold pathogens from the body.
Sanfutie has the function of dispelling cold and strengthening yang, but it is mainly used externally, with low absorption and slow speed, and is more suitable for people of all ages and infirmities. If the body is seriously deficient in yang and cold pathogens, oral drugs can better play the role of tonifying yang and dispelling cold.
Today, I'd like to share with you two kinds of traditional Chinese medicines, which can tonify Yang Qi in dog days, dispel cold and tonify Yang Qi from getting angry. Cinnamon and buffalo horn, let's see.
First look at cinnamon
Cinnamon is pungent, sweet and hot, and can enter the kidney, spleen, heart and liver meridians. It has the functions of tonifying fire, supporting yang, dispelling cold, relieving pain, warming channels and dredging collaterals. Cinnamon is an important drug for treating the decline of qi and fire, which is often used to treat impotence, palace cold, shortness of breath, palpitation and other symptoms caused by kidney-yang weakness. It has a good effect on improving cold pain, cold hernia and abdominal pain caused by yang deficiency and cold excess.
Second, look at the buffalo horn.
Buffalo horn is salty and cold in nature. It enters the liver, heart and stomach meridians and has the functions of clearing heat, cooling blood and detoxifying. Commonly used for heat entering the blood, buffalo horn can enter the blood, clearing the fire of heart, liver and stomach meridians, and has the effect of cooling blood and detoxifying. Used to match cinnamon, to assist the pungent property of cinnamon, and to reduce the side effects caused by overheating and drying cinnamon.
Cinnamon with buffalo horn, cold and hot, but a little hot, effectively stimulates the body's yang. In midsummer, it is in line with the theory of nourishing yang in spring and summer to improve the problem of wind-cold and yang deficiency.
If yang deficiency and body cold are serious, cinnamon can also be added to the dog paste to help yang drive away cold.
