Disadvantages of thread embedding

The Chinese medicine thread embedding therapy is a relatively traditional treatment method. If the treatment is appropriate, it has very good therapeutic effects. However, if the operation is not done properly, it often causes some side effects. For example, thread embedding can cause pain to the patient, diarrhea, abdominal pain and other symptoms. In addition, it can cause blood stasis, infection, fever and other symptoms. Let’s take a look at the disadvantages and advantages of thread embedding.

1. Advantages

1. Harmonize the five internal organs and balance the yang and yin. The various effects and stimulation process of Chinese medicine thread embedding, through the input of meridians, have the effect of regulating the functions of the five internal organs, correcting the unbalanced or weak yang and yin, and restoring relative balance.

2. Clear the meridians and regulate the blood and qi. Pain is related to the blockage of meridians and the imbalance of blood and qi. There is a saying that "if there is no pain, there is pain, and if there is no pain, there is pain". The thread embedding therapy of traditional Chinese medicine has the goal of "controlling the spirit and making the qi easy to operate", so it can clear the meridians and dredge the stagnant blood and qi.

3. Tonify the deficiency, eliminate the excess, strengthen the body and eliminate evil. The various functions of thread embedding in traditional Chinese medicine generally have a stimulating effect, and have a certain effect on those with impaired body function and decreased immunity, that is, it has the effect of enhancing immune function, nourishing yin and blood.

2. Defects

1. Pain may occur during thread embedding

Although the thread embedding method cannot be considered a major surgery, or even can be called a surgical treatment, this method is ultimately making an incision on the body, so pain is inevitable. There may be more intense pain in the first few days after thread embedding, but this pain can disappear quickly, so there is no need to take any measures. As long as you persist and endure it, the pain will disappear after two or three days.

2. May cause diarrhea

After thread embedding, you may experience diarrhea several times. This is a normal reaction to thread embedding and no treatment is required. This type of diarrhea will disappear quickly after a period of time.

3. Bruising

Some local congestion may occur a few days after the implementation of the thread embedding method. There is no need to worry at this time. This is the local congestion caused by the capillaries encountered during thread embedding, which caused capillary bleeding. Generally, it will disappear automatically after one or two weeks. There is no need for treatment. If you must do something, you can apply hot compress, and the congestion may disappear faster.

4. Fever may occur

Some fever may occur after thread embedding. At this time, no medication is needed. Just persist and the fever will disappear quickly.

5. You may be infected with other diseases

Thread embedding is to make some small incisions on the human body, so it can be regarded as a relatively minor surgical treatment. At this time, if the operating room instruments are not strictly sterilized and are exposed to environmental contamination, some diseases may be infected. Therefore, this can also be regarded as a side effect of thread embedding.
