Is cupping suitable for people with low platelets? Will there be any adverse reactions?
Cupping is one of the physical therapies for health preservation in traditional Chinese medicine. It is also a family health preserving method which is circulated in China folk factories. With the development of today's society, many people will choose cupping for health at home, pulling out two cans, which is refreshing. Although this cupping therapy can relieve pain, it is still not suitable for everyone.

First, people with low platelets are not suitable for cupping. Thrombocytopenia may be caused by insufficient platelet production, platelet spleen retention, platelet destruction or increased platelet utilization. Cupping is not recommended. Thrombocytopenia is usually the main factor leading to hemophilia. The human body has a health index. If it is lower than the health index, it can't be called health, but it can't be called illness. Platelets are below the health standard. When they suffer from hemorrhagic injury, the time for blood to stop bleeding (that is, coagulation) will be prolonged. The lower the index, the longer the coagulation time and the longer the bleeding time. When there is a bleeding wound and its own hemostasis function can't stop bleeding at all, it indicates hemophilia.

Second, the role and efficacy of cupping Cupping is a method of treating diseases by using negative pressure, which is formed by fire, extrusion or suction, and then adsorbed on the human body, acupoints and parts to be treated. So this method is good for women. Cupping is mainly used for removing blood stasis, dredging collaterals, promoting qi circulation and relieving pain, and expelling wind and cold. In fact, it is widely used for various neck, shoulder, waist and leg pains, arthritis, joint pains, soft tissue injuries, as well as colds, coughs, headaches, stomachaches, indigestion, bloating, diarrhea, dysmenorrhea and urinary system diseases.

It is suggested that you should not take a bath immediately after cupping to avoid skin infection. Keep warm after cupping and try to avoid catching a cold. If blisters appear after cupping, it may be because of the heavy moisture in the body and the contraindications of cupping, such as people with broken skin and infected people, who can't cupping. People who are wet and weak should not be bottled. Patients with special diseases, such as hemophilia and bleeding tendency, should not be cup holders.
