Summer and autumn are the peak seasons for children to suffer from diarrhea. At this time, the weather is hot and children wear fewer clothes. The hot weather can also make children crave for coolness, so if they eat cold food or catch a cold in their abdomen, diarrhea may occur. Childhood diarrhea has a significant impact on children's health, so is moxibustion effective for treating childhood diarrhea?
Firstly, when a child suffers from diarrhea, parents should not rush to give the child medication. Instead, traditional Chinese medicine methods can be used for treatment. Moxibustion is one of the essence of traditional Chinese art, which can treat many diseases. Moxibustion is also very effective for children with diarrhea, but the effect varies from person to person and the treatment time may also differ.
In fact, for treating diarrhea with moxibustion, it is usually done by igniting the mugwort and applying moxibustion around the child's navel. The medicinal components in moxibustion can enter the child's body through the navel, and moxibustion produces certain effects in the body, thereby achieving the goal of cure. Moxibustion is a painless treatment method that is ideal for children.
However, during the process of moxibustion, it is important to be careful not to burn the child's skin with mugwort when the child cannot stabilize. At the same time, when purchasing mugwort, it is necessary to go to a regular pharmacy or hospital. Do not buy fake mugwort for convenience, as the treatment may not achieve the desired effect and may delay the best treatment time.
