According to the theory of meridians in traditional Chinese medicine, the five fingertips of a person have meridian points, which are closely related to the internal organs. If one of the fingertips feels particularly painful, it means that there is some kind of problem with the internal organs related to this meridian acupoint.
All parts of the body are related, follow the editor to do a simple quiz.
Test Step 1:
Raise your left or right hand in front of your chest, clench into a fist and hold for 30 seconds, then open your palm.
When opened, does the white color of the palm disappear immediately, or does it remain for a short time?
When the fist is clenched, it compresses the blood vessels in the palm, and such a squeezing action blocks the blood circulation, so the palm turns white.
If the palm of the hand turns white, if it can immediately return to its original skin color, it means that the blood vessels are healthy. However, if it takes more than 10 seconds to recover, be careful if you have arteriosclerosis.
Test Step 2:
Pinch the base of the nail and press and turn it firmly, starting with the little fingers, one by one, to feel if there are any particularly painful fingers. Pain in different parts of the body is a sign that something is wrong with a part of the body.
According to the meridian theory of traditional Chinese medicine, each of the five fingertips of a person has meridian acupoints, which are closely related to the internal organs.
This is to tell us that every part of our body is interrelated and interconnected. Do you know which part each of your fingers represents? Let's take a look.
Little finger pain: People with little finger pain have a problem with the heart or small intestine. (The tip of the little finger on one side of the ring finger is called Shaochong acupoint, and the other side is called Shaoze acupoint.)
Shaochong acupoint is closely related to the heart, so when you have a heart attack, pressing the tip of your little finger firmly can ease the attack. Shaoze acupoint is the meridian point of the small intestine, the small intestine is not in good condition, you can use force to press this fingertip. )
Ring finger pain: Ring finger pain may be a sore throat or headache. There is a Guan Chong acupoint on the ring finger Sanjiao Sutra, and you can rub this part when you have a cold and fever.
Middle finger pain: There is a Zhongchong point on the middle finger, which is located on the pericardial meridian that surrounds the heart, and it will be painful here when the heart can't stand it due to the heat.
Pain in the index finger: If you have constipation on the index finger and feel deep pain when you press this area, you may have problems with the large intestine.
Thumb pain: The Shaoshang acupoint in the thumb is closely related to the lungs. If you have a lung disease, you will jump in pain when you press this area.
If you feel pain while kneading, you should pay attention, it is very likely that there is a problem with the part that communicates with your fingers, and it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up.
Even if the pain is mild, it is related to the acupuncture point of the finger, indicating that the part is abnormal.

Shoot it once and it works!
1. The strength of the massage
For most acupuncture points and reflex areas, no pain will not be effective, so it needs to be stimulated a little stronger, and the pain should be heavier. But don't use too much force, as long as there is obvious pain.
During the massage, apply light and then heavy pressure, gradually increasing the force until it is acceptable.
2. The order of massage
When massaged, the male first left hand, then the right hand; Women, on the contrary, are right-handed first, then left-handed. If you don't have enough time, just massage the acupuncture points on one hand.
