I can’t believe that the shape of your belly button can identify gynecological diseases!

The navel should not be exposed to cold. If the navel gets cold, it is easy to get diarrhea and cold. This is a truth that most people understand. For women, it may even affect their menstrual period. Therefore, navel health care is very important. Identifying diseases by belly button shape: which ones indicate gynecological diseases? Let’s take a look below and hope it can help everyone, especially female friends, who should know more to ensure their own health and prevent the occurrence of gynecological diseases.

1. Identify diseases based on the shape of the belly button

1. A shallow and small belly button indicates a weak body, abnormal hormone secretion, general weakness, and poor mental state.

2. Sunken belly button: When you are obese or have abdominal inflammation, such as adhesive tuberculous peritonitis, your belly button will become sunken inward.

3. Protruding belly button: When there is a lot of fluid accumulation in the abdomen or ovarian cysts, the belly button will protrude outward.

4. Downward shape: Care should be taken to prevent gastroptosis, constipation, chronic gastrointestinal diseases and gynecological diseases.

5. Upward shape: The belly button extends upward, almost becoming a triangle with the top pointing upward. People with this type of belly button should pay more attention

6. The navel is on the left: poor gastrointestinal function, constipation or large intestine mucosal lesions should be prevented.

7. The navel is on the right side: pay attention to diseases such as hepatitis and duodenal ulcer.

2. Avoid cold in the navel, remember to keep warm

The belly button is the place most afraid of catching cold. The navel is different from other parts of the abdomen. There is no muscle or fat tissue below the navel, but it is rich in blood vessels. As the final closure of the abdominal wall, the skin is thinner and more sensitive, and has the characteristics of strong permeability and fast absorption. Due to its poor barrier function and being a relatively weak part of the human body, it is easy to catch cold and develop a cold.

Pay special attention to keeping the navel warm when sleeping to avoid diarrhea or colds. Especially for young women, especially those during menstruation, their blood vessels are in a state of congestion. Wearing belly-exposing clothes is most likely to cause pelvic blood vessels to contract due to cold, resulting in menstrual blood flow disorders. Over time, it can cause dysmenorrhea, prolonged menstruation, irregular menstruation, etc.

3. Umbilical health care method

1. Massage your belly button

You can sit, lie down or stand. Try to relax your whole body and fully expose your abdomen. Rub your hands together to warm them up. Place one palm on your navel and press the other hand on your navel. Press in a clockwise and then counterclockwise direction from small to large for 50 to 100 times. Be gentle when massaging and do not use strong force. Do this once in the morning and once in the evening.

The navel and kidneys are connected by dynamic Qi, while the spleen, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine are located in the abdomen around the navel. Massaging the Shenque and abdomen can increase appetite, dredge the Qi, help digestion, strengthen the body, increase energy, and prevent and treat diseases such as gastroenteritis, peptic ulcers, and prostatitis.

2. Apply Chinese medicine to the navel

If the constipation is caused by heat, you can apply Glauber's salt, which is bitter and cold in nature, to the navel. For abdominal pain caused by cold, grind ginger, Evodia rutaecarpa, cinnamon, cloves, etc. into powder and apply it to the navel. For the elderly and weak, different medicines can be selected to apply to the navel according to the condition of their physical condition, qi, blood, yin and yang, which has the effect of strengthening the body and prolonging life.

Umbilical therapy and internal medication have the same purpose and work in different ways. When applied to the navel, the medicine passes through the skin and reaches the meridians directly. And through the flow of Qi and blood in the meridians, the medicinal properties are distributed throughout the body with the circulation of Qi and blood, achieving the purpose of warming the meridians, promoting the circulation of Qi and blood, dispelling cold and dampness, harmonizing the Yin and Yang of the internal organs, and strengthening the physical constitution and prolonging life.

3. Navel cupping

Choose a large-sized cupping jar, use the flash fire method, place the cupping jar on the navel, and remove it after 15 to 20 minutes. Cupping on the navel can treat asthma, dysentery, chronic diarrhea, urticaria, allergic rhinitis, etc.

The navel can be combined with cupping on Zusanli, Tanzhong and Dazhui, once a day or every other day, each time for 20 minutes, which can enhance the body's immune function, increase appetite and eliminate fatigue.
