Patient's question:
Irregular menstruation, constipation. What is suitable for foot bathing with irregular menstruation and constipation?Doctor's answer:
Foot soaking is a traditional Chinese medicine practice for health preservation. Soaking feet in hot water can stimulate meridians and acupoints on the feet, promote blood and qi circulation, and enhance the digestive function of the intestines, which is beneficial for defecation and detoxification. For constipation, it is recommended to consume vegetables and fruits rich in dietary fiber, drink plenty of water and beverages. Increase the intake of foods rich in B vitamins and laxatives, such as coarse grains, beans, tremella, honey, etc. Add cooking oil appropriately when stir-frying.
