Patient's question:
During postpartum period, using a fan or air conditioner can sometimes cause soreness in the calves when exposed to cold air, and I'm afraid of getting postpartum illnesses. The help I want: Can sweating and detoxification really cure postpartum illnesses?Doctor's answer:
The "sweating method" is one of the earliest and most widely used treatment methods in Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the "sweating method" not only relieves menstrual pain, activates the body's organs, improves mental state, and restores physical strength, but also has the function of regulating the nervous system, dilating peripheral small blood vessels, improving microcirculation, and promoting the functions of the five internal organs and six Fu organs in the human body. It allows internal pathogens to be expelled along with the evaporated sweat. Sweat contains a natural antibody called "Dermicidin," which can kill harmful bacteria such as E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans. Through sweating, not only can bacteria and viruses be expelled, but stored coldness in the body can also be completely eliminated through sweating.Applicable:
