Patient's question:
Can you drink water soaked with mugwort when you have a cold and a runny nose? The elderly say mugwort dispels cold. I would like to consult a few.Doctor's answer:
If you have a cold and a runny nose, bathing your feet with mugwort can dispel cold. It's best to use mugwort to bathe your feet in the evening, as it can enhance blood circulation and promote overall health, with relatively good effects. I suggest you can use ginger to make a decoction to dispel cold, drink more water regularly, and pay attention to keeping warm. During a cold, your diet should also be light. However, if the treatment effect is not good after taking cold medicine, you still need to go to a local regular hospital for follow-up.
