What are the therapeutic effects of sucking sha? The most gentle way to treat diseases

We often hear about scraping, but sucking the sha is not something we have heard of. Now, let’s take a look at the effects of sucking the sha, the most gentle way to treat diseases.

What are the effects of sucking sha?

Sucking sha is also known as sucking sha or sucking sha. It is the same as scraping, which is to make the skin appear red millet-like or dark red bleeding spots. The difference is that scraping uses a scraping board or similar tools and techniques to repeatedly scrape and rub the skin to make sha appear. The tool used for sucking sha is the mother's mouth, and the mother's soft lips with temperature are used instead of the cold scraping tool. For young children, the skin is delicate, and sucking with the mouth is the safest method. The baby's skin is very tender, and scraping often hurts the baby accidentally. Moreover, if mothers do not control the strength of scraping, the baby often feels pain and does not cooperate. Sucking sha is different. The parent-child stickiness plus interesting guidance, if the mother says to the baby when sucking sha: "Baby, mom will play a little game of kissing you with you now", when the baby feels that the mother is playing a game with him, he will not be afraid, but will cooperate with you.

In Chinese medicine, we often say that we should let the pathogens have a way out. When children have cold symptoms, we can use hot compresses, moxibustion, foot baths, or even a bowl of hot porridge to sweat and drive out the cold. When children have heat symptoms, we can suck the sha, which is almost painless and can drive out the heat. If children have wind-heat cough or a cough mixed with cold and heat, such as clear yellow nasal discharge, red tongue, yellow tongue coating, yellow phlegm, fear of heat, sore throat, and thirst, we can suck the sha to help the body expel the heat. While taking medicine according to the doctor's advice, they can recover faster.

Precautions for sucking sha

1. Rinse your mouth with salt water before sucking the sha. Spit out the saliva produced during the sucking process. If you accidentally swallow the saliva, drink more warm water.

2. After sucking the sha, you should rinse your mouth with salt water several times. After sucking the sha, you should drink more warm water to help detoxify.

3. If the mouth is damaged, the lips are cracked or there are oral ulcers, do not suck the sha, let the child's father or other family members do it. If there is no one at home to do it, use more massage techniques, and never take risks yourself. Because the sucked sha is poisonous gas, these poisonous gases will enter the mother's body through the wound. There was a mother who sucked the sha of her baby when she had oral ulcers, and she ended up with tonsillitis and almost had to get an IV drip.

Indications of sucking sha

Whether it is cold or hot, you can suck the sha. When the baby's throat is red and swollen, or has tonsillitis, suck from Tiantu to the tonsils in front, and suck along the Tianzhu bone to Dazhui in the back. When the baby coughs badly, you can suck from Tanzhong to Tiantu in front, and suck along Dazhui to Feishu in the back. For babies who cough particularly badly and do not cooperate when the shoulder blades are pushed apart, you can also suck directly along the shoulder blades. Suck more at the places with more sha. When the baby has a runny nose or nasal congestion due to external infection, sucking Fengchi and the high bone behind the ear is also very effective. These are the experiences gained by mothers in person.
