Why does breast pain occur after moxibustion?

Moxibustion is a very traditional Chinese medicine method and is still widely used today. This is because moxibustion has a wide range of effects. For example, it can treat stomach problems. In addition, people will get frostbite in winter, and moxibustion can also be used to help treat it. In short, moxibustion has many functions such as regulating meridians and enhancing immunity. However, some people will experience breast pain after moxibustion. Why is this?

Why does breast pain occur after moxibustion?

There is no way to judge directly, but it is recommended to stop moxibustion immediately. Moxibustion is too professional. Many people use it at home, but it always fails to produce any effect. It is better to use red thorn flower sea salt for hot compress at home, which is definitely better than moxibustion.

I have been doing moxibustion for more than twelve days. My menstrual period has just passed ten days. My breasts started to swell last night. This happens every time before my period. I think it must be related to moxibustion. I don't know what the reason is. Is it a reaction to expel the disease? Should I advance my menstruation or should I wait? Please give me some advice, my friends who do moxibustion.

After the evil enters the body, it consumes the already limited yang energy in women, causing blood circulation problems. Moxibustion can quickly replenish a person's Yang Qi, make the body's Qi and blood sufficient, use Qi to carry blood, use blood to nourish Qi, activate blood circulation, remove blood stasis, and warm the meridians and dredge the collaterals.

These are actually signs of improvement. When you encounter these signs of disease elimination, you must stay calm:

1. Early or delayed menstruation: The first effect of moxa is on the reproductive system of women and men. Therefore, if women do moxibustion, there is an adjustment period within 3 months, and menstruation may be early or delayed.

2. Blisters and rashes are caused by excessive dampness and blood toxins in the body. The more severe the symptoms, the more moxibustion is needed.

3. Blisters below the navel indicate gynecological problems, and red spots under the blisters indicate inflammation. Blisters around the navel are caused by dampness and coldness in the intestines. In severe cases, a circle of hard skin will form around the navel.

4. The feeling of running through the meridians is also called De Qi, and it feels numb, which is a good phenomenon.

5. You can feel the heat reaching the perineum, which is a good sign, indicating that it has a significant effect on ovarian function and has opened up the Ren meridian.

6. During the moxibustion process, you will feel a heat forming in the lower abdomen, and it can form an airflow with your consciousness, flowing back and forth in your meridians, from the top of the head to the soles of the feet.

8. After doing moxibustion, people feel much better and more relaxed. Very good feeling.

9. It is better to sweat a lot in summer. However, in winter, it is better to do moxibustion if the whole body sweats slightly, especially the forehead, palms and soles of feet. Those who sweat profusely must be people with weak bodies.

10. Feeling of cold. You will feel a cool breeze after moxibustion. People with cold constitution will often experience this phenomenon. You should do more moxibustion.
