People in today’s flowery world, material desires scatter their spirit, lust consumes their essence, vehicles and machinery replace their movement, electric lights replace the light of the sun and the moon, although luxurious houses and avoid the cold and heat, but the lack of physical exercise and excessive mental wear and tear, once a little older, rheumatism and cold paralysis not to go to the body, poor blood circulation, the lighter, soreness and pain, the heavier numbness and impotence, unkindness, not to use, partial withering, affecting the skin and bones is a small matter, affecting the heart, liver, spleen, lungs It affects the heart, liver, spleen, lung, hip, and the five viscera in a big way. Therefore, the heart disease, fever, syncope and other pains caused by wind-dampness all originate from the symptoms caused by the deficiency of the righteousness and the strength of the evil.
Rheumatism patients are extremely sensitive to daily weather changes, because the changes in the six qi (yin, yang, wind, rain, dark, bright), has been due to rheumatism stationed in the body and deep into the human body, is no longer an external matter. The human body has lost the small world of Qi domination of the self, need to be subject to the six Qi of nature, then the human body from the brain, down to the tip of the toes, as shallow as the skin, as deep as the bones, are subject to the possibility of evil Qi invasion, all depends on where the weakness. For example, excessive sexual intercourse, tendons, waist and knees are vulnerable to the invasion of wind and dampness, the rest can be deduced by analogy.
1、 When people do not have enough vital Qi to protect the muscles and joints of the whole body, they are exposed to external cold and humidity, or live in air conditioning (about 23%).
2、 When the body is fatigued by wind and damp invasion (about 19%).
3, cold and body weakness wind damp not to go (about 16%).
4, mental fatigue and work in air-conditioned rooms, or work in adverse weather and rheumatism (about 13%).
5, there are also endocrine disorders, trauma (bruises, sprains), genetic relationships, eccentric diet, etc., resulting in local systemic resistance to rheumatism weak, and long-term rheumatism sufferers (about 29%).
In industrial society, everything is fast, therefore, the “miraculous” quick effect of rheumatism medicine that can immediately relieve pain and the low price of Western medicine have really catered to the appetite of modern people at one time. Therefore, people have been suffering from the damage caused by the side effects of “quick-acting” drugs, and intelligent patients have long since awakened to the fact that “treatment” is not suitable for “pain relief”. The introduction of good rheumatism Chinese herbal medicine can definitely meet the wishes of intelligent rheumatism patients and be accepted by them. Although pain relief is slower, it is the basic principle of longevity for human beings – not only pain relief but also healing.
(a) Do not eat cold or bamboo shoots, so as not to hurt the stomach and intestines: because of the cold deficiency of the stomach and intestines will not be able to fully oxidize the food, the lack of vital Qi is the main key to cause the easy invasion of external evil. In addition, do not eat and drink during the New Year holidays.
(B) Reduce unnecessary psychological pressure: people often find themselves troubled by the trivialities of daily life, rarely face the reality, looking for solutions, so that day by day aging, this sad mood, the treatment of rheumatism has a great obstacle. We should “use our brains and not worry”. Whenever there are mental worries, there will be symptoms of shoulder pain or muscle pain, patients should try to relax themselves.
(c) Physical therapy can be used: for example, warm cloth compresses or hot spring treatment. In addition, in order to strengthen the muscles, increase physical strength, prevent muscle atrophy, and prevent hardening and deformation of the joints, more exercise should be done. However, you should not tolerate knee pain and walk reluctantly to worsen the pain.
(d) Do not blow the air conditioner or lift heavy objects after exercise or intercourse. After intercourse, menstruation, childbirth, heavy sweating, overexertion and physical exhaustion, the vital Qi will be deficient. At this time, it is not advisable to blow the air conditioner or bathe in cold water or lift heavy objects to prevent the invasion of external evil. Avoid excessive exertion, adequate rest, early to bed and early to rise, more exercise. Women in the postpartum, post-menstrual, such as falls, falls or heavy lifting heavy wind, cold and damp invasion, most likely to get long years rheumatism.
(e) Increase outdoor exercise: so that the whole body blood circulation, but also a high degree of nutrient combustion decomposition, so that the quality of nutrients in the blood. Quality nutrition to promote the recovery of various tissues.
(f) Reduce all kinds of unnecessary sports injuries: not to eat low-temperature drinks after exercise, rapid cooling often causes a rapid decline in blood circulation, but also the vascular fascia contraction hardened, easy to cause sports injuries, but also affect the burning of fat, protein decomposition. This can cause future rheumatic joint pain. It is also a major cause of myocardial infarction and allergic diseases, which should not be ignored.
