Whether it is improper limb movement, or feeling cold and dampness, elderly people will always have knee pain. It is no wonder that the knee joint is a large joint with a heavy weight and complex structure in the human body, and problems are inevitable at a certain age.
What should I do if this problem arises?
As long as you find the switch to treat the disease, you can solve it, knee pain, there is a big switch, it is on the elbow, find it, you can treat yourself, the method is detailed as follows:
If it is pain in the left knee joint, use the Quchi point on the right side. If you have pain in the right knee joint, use the Quchi point on the left side.
If you feel soreness and numbness during the pinching process, you should immediately move the knee joint on the opposite side slowly and appropriately until the symptoms are significantly reduced. Then, immediately use moxibustion strips to moxibustion the inner knee eye and outer knee eye at the knee joint.
This method is insisted on every day, once a day, and can be performed for about 30 minutes each time, and it will be effective over time.
The location of Quchi Cave must be known to everyone. It is located at the lateral end of the elbow stria, flexed at the elbow, at the midpoint of the line between the ulnar point and the lateral epicondyle of the humerus. This acupuncture point belongs to the large intestine meridian of Hand Yangming, which is 108,000 miles away from the knee joint, how can it play a role in treating knee pain?
In fact, there is an important concept involved in Chinese medicine. This is the joint corresponding acupoint method. For knee joint disease, you can find the acupuncture points of the elbow joint to regulate. For elbow joint disease, you can find acupuncture points in the knee joint to regulate. Therefore, stimulating the Quchi acupoint can improve the knee joint problem.
From another point of view, the Hand Yang Ming Large Intestine Meridian, where the Quchi acupoint is located, and the Foot Yang Ming Stomach Meridian seek the same qi. The Zuyang Ming stomach meridian happens to pass through the knee joint, so stimulating the Quchi acupoint can treat knee joint diseases.
Furthermore, as the combined acupoint of the Yangming Sutra, the Quchi acupoint itself has the functions of invigorating qi and blood, clearing the channels and dissolving stasis, and flattening the chong and reducing adversity, and at the same time, the Yangming Sutra itself is also "moistening the tendon sect". Looking at it this way, it is very reasonable to use Quchi acupoint.
In addition, netizens may have another question, why is it necessary to take acupuncture points on the opposite side? In fact, this is the embodiment of the "giant thorn method" of traditional Chinese medicine.
What is the "Giant Thorn" method? Ranked as an official, and looked at a passage in "Acupuncture and Moxibustion Dacheng" that said: "The evil guest is in the scriptures, the left is the right disease, and the right is the left disease." That is to say, due to the influence of the meridian left and right intersection points, most of the pulse qi can be connected left and right, so through the Quchi acupoint, the problem of the contralateral knee joint can be regulated.
It can be seen that the use of Quchi acupoint to improve knee pain does contain the ancient wisdom and infinite mystery of traditional Chinese medicine, which is worthy of our heart.
As for the inner and outer knee eyes of moxibustion, it is to warm the yang and dispel the cold, so that the qi and blood of the knee joint are full and the meridians are comfortable, which is conducive to the recovery of knee joint function.
