Take the leaves of Shuò Jiǎ, heat them with fire, and spread them thickly on the bed. Lie down on them while they are still hot. Change the leaves when they become cold. In winter, take the roots, grind them into powder, and boil them.

Shuò Jiǎ has the effects of dispelling wind and removing dampness, promoting blood circulation and resolving blood stasis. It is mainly used to treat rheumatism pain, nephritis edema, foot edema, dysentery, jaundice, chronic bronchitis, rubella itching, erysipelas, abscess swelling, fractures, and injuries.

Shuò Jiǎ has a sour and warm taste and enters the liver meridian.

【3 signs of stroke】

1. Dizziness and frequent headaches similar to hypertension

In the early stage of stroke, the most prominent symptom is headache, often accompanied by dizziness. These two symptoms are similar to the manifestations of hypertension, and many people mistake them for a hypertensive attack. However, they may actually be signs of a stroke.

Vomiting accompanying stroke is different from normal vomiting. It is projectile vomiting. If these symptoms occur and persist for a day, it is important to be aware that a stroke may be occurring.

2. Facial asymmetry

A typical symptom of stroke is facial asymmetry. It may manifest as sudden facial asymmetry upon waking up in the morning and can also affect the movement of the face. In some cases, there may be partial paralysis on one side of the body. These are all symptoms caused by stroke. Therefore, if facial asymmetry occurs, it is important to be vigilant as it may be an early sign of a stroke.

3. Visual impairment

Stroke can affect vision. This is mainly due to the blockage of blood vessels in the early stages of stroke, which can affect the optic nerve and cause blurred vision or double vision. These are common manifestations of stroke affecting vision.
