March 17, 2024

There are still many patients suffering from allergic rhinitis. Patients with rhinitis have blocked nose and itchy nose, which brings a lot of inconvenience to their lives. Patients with rhinitis should seek early treatment, otherwise the condition may worsen and become more difficult to cure. Traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture, with its unique advantages, has been widely accepted by doctors and patients. Acupuncture is used in the treatment of various diseases, especially for patients with allergic rhinitis. Now, let's take a look at how traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture treats rhinitis.

Acupuncture is highly effective in treating allergic rhinitis

Traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture has many advantages in treating rhinitis. Unlike many oral Western medicines, traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture can target the nose area for targeted treatment, and the treatment time is relatively short, with significant results.

Based on the theory of meridian therapy and the concept of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation treatment, acupuncture has developed a series of "magical" characteristic therapies. However, it is also reminded that the professionalism of these characteristic therapies in the field of acupuncture is very high, and some even have certain risks, so it is necessary to receive treatment in a regular hospital acupuncture department.

So, what are the methods of traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture for treating rhinitis? The following are several methods that have been collected, such as autologous blood therapy, bloodletting therapy, embedding thread therapy, and acupoint plaster therapy. Let's take a look.

Autologous blood therapy

Quickly effective in treating allergic diseases.

Suitable for diseases: urticaria, allergic rhinitis, bronchial asthma, etc.

Operation method: Draw 4ml of blood from the patient's vein, and inject it into the corresponding acupoints or Ah Shi points according to syndrome differentiation, with 2ml per acupoint.

The so-called autologous blood therapy can be simply understood as using one's own blood for treatment. In the acupuncture department of characteristic therapy, autologous blood therapy is commonly used. Usually, dozens of patients receive this treatment method every day.

According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine meridian therapy, drawing one's own blood has the effect of clearing the meridians; injecting the blood into the corresponding acupoints or Ah Shi points can also have a certain stimulating effect. In accordance with the syndrome differentiation of traditional Chinese medicine, acupoints are selected in a targeted manner to achieve the purpose of treatment.

Autologous blood therapy has outstanding effects on the treatment of some allergic diseases, such as urticaria, allergic rhinitis, bronchial asthma, etc. Generally, it can be cured in three months to half a year. The time for each blood draw and injection is short, and the time required for each treatment is also relatively short. For example, for urticaria, traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment methods are not effective, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment with medication usually takes 2-3 years. Taking a case of urticaria as an example, using autologous blood therapy combined with ear acupoint plaster, alternating treatment of Feishu, Xuehai, and Geyu acupoints, once or twice a week for 3 months, the urticaria was cured.

However, it should be noted that autologous blood therapy is difficult to operate. If the blood coagulates before injection due to poor time control, the effectiveness will be greatly reduced. During the operation, it is also necessary to avoid injecting into nerves or other tissues. Therefore, although autologous blood therapy seems simple, it requires a high level of professionalism. It is recommended to go to a formal hospital for treatment.

Bloodletting therapy

Clear meridians, eliminate stasis and relieve heat.

Suitable for diseases: acute lumbar muscle strain, migraine, hypertension headache, facial paralysis, rheumatoid arthritis, cervical spondylosis, lumbar spondylosis, female menstrual disorders, etc.
