The heels are chapped and the calves are long "fish scales", the truth is not that the skin is dehydrated! The root of the disease is here!
The heels are rough and cracked, and the heels become file-like. Not only peeling and bleeding, but also tearing socks, usually walking very carefully, for fear of exerting too much force, the heel will "burst". Soak your feet, remove dead skin, and wrap your feet and wrap every day. The effect didn't last for a few days, and it was beaten back to its original shape, and the cracks were still accumulating and turning black. When it's hot, it's embarrassing to show your feet......
Do you really think it's just dry skin?
The heel is chapped and painful, but it is actually a lack of kidney qi
Experienced melon sellers, when selecting watermelons, may not pat or knock, but just with a sweep of their eyes, they can pick out a ripe and sweet melon from a pile of melons. Cut it open and take a look, and sure enough, it's great, sweet.
This is because the melon that is ripe and sweet inside will inevitably have a corresponding performance, which will appear on the appearance of the melon skin.
"The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" also talked about this truth: "There are all forms on the inside, and they must be on the outside." It means that if there is something wrong in the human body, it will definitely show up on the surface of the body.
The human body's kidney meridian walks along the ankle as follows: after following the medial malleolus, pin into the heel. The heel is the route taken by the Kidney Sutra, and it is also the area it is responsible for.
If there is any heel pain, itching, or cracking of the heel in this area, you should consider whether the meridian qi of the kidney meridian is insufficient?
Autumn and winter dryness does affect the moisturizing effect of the body, so the skin on the heels will crack.
So why doesn't the delicate facial skin crack? And the heel cracked first? This actually reflects the lack of kidney qi.
Kidney deficiency is not a special disease for men, but also the culprit of women's aging and disease. Women's kidney deficiency is also manifested in cold intolerance, hair loss, gray hair, puffy eyes and face, early menopause, etc.
Three ways to treat both the symptoms and the root causes to create smooth and beautiful feet
Applying skin cream and petroleum jelly only has a little moisturizing effect on the cracked part, but what if the crack is deep and bleeding?
Apply a few drops of essential oil to the chapped area before going to bed, preferably sealed with plastic wrap, and tear it off again when you wake up in the morning. Wormwood is good for anti-inflammatory and sterilization, pain relief and hemostasis.
Wormwood essential oil penetrates the meridians, and the liquid ingredients have an emollient effect, which is a good way to treat both the symptoms and the root causes of such diseases.

Calf skin "long fish scales"?
Many people's calves will be obviously peeled, especially in autumn and winter, when they take off their pants, the "snowflakes" fall to the ground, and the whole calf looks like a snakeskin and fish scales, and the skin like dead tree bark all day long is simply a nightmare.
What is the truth of traditional Chinese medicine behind this phenomenon?
Autumn and winter calf skin like fish scales? Most of the liver meridians are bruised
In autumn and winter, the skin of the calf is dry to the point of peeling, such as snakeskin and fish scales, and then it will be dry and itchy and unbearable, which is called "skin nail error" in traditional Chinese medicine. This is a very important indication of blood stasis in the liver meridian, and the skin is dry and resembles fish scales. A woman with skin like clotted fat, like Yang Guifei, has no blood stasis.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "the liver is the main tendon", and the blood vessels belong to the category of "tendon". Skin nail mistakes are actually poor long-term capillary nourishment. The level of fluid is low, the blood is insufficient, and there is stagnation and congestion (Chinese medicine believes that cold represents a state of stagnation), and naturally the skin is not well nourished. If your body is cold and your blood is deficient, the blood circulation will become slower and slower, making the skin condition more and more serious.
In the past, the old Chinese medicine practitioners said that the clear qi is at the top, the turbid qi is at the bottom, and the blood stasis and water dampness in the human body will be manifested below.
What's more, the legs are also more realistic. Nowadays, women are keen on makeup, and their true colors are hidden, but they can't be hidden on their legs.
Do you have serious liver and gallbladder problems?
Behind the liver meridian stasis syndrome is liver and gallbladder problems, in addition to skin nail errors, dark circles, difficulty falling asleep or waking up easily at 1-3 o'clock in the evening, bitter mouth, dark lips, migraine, irritable temper and other problems.
The skin nails are wrong, and the root cause is still cold.
In fact, the calf skin nail is still cold in the abdomen, because the 6 yin meridians in the abdomen pass through, which is the most likely to stay cold. The cold is condensation, condensation is stasis, heavy fire moxibustion abdominal cavity, blood circulation and blood stasis, drive away the cold in the body, enhance vitality, improve qi and blood circulation, and dry calf skin is naturally good.
