Patient's question:
I have always gone to a beauty hospital for moxibustion. Moxibustion cured my cervical erosion. What is the principle behind this?Doctor's answer:
In moxibustion, the herb used is mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris). Mugwort has the functions of warming the meridians and invigorating blood circulation, which can enhance blood supply and stabilize blood circulation. The recurrence of cervical erosion is a view from Western medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that cervical erosion is often caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis. Therefore, at this time, the timely use of blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing herbs can significantly improve local circulation and help in the recovery of cervical erosion.
