Where is the best place to get moxibustion for children who are bedwetting?

Parents are always very distressed about their children's bedwetting. Not only will it dirty the quilt, but it will also have more or less impact on the child's body. Therefore, they should find ways to improve these conditions of their children. Some parents will learn to use moxibustion to relieve their children's bedwetting. However, in comparison, acupuncture is actually more effective, such as acupuncture on the Sanyin acupoints and Guanyuan acupoints.

Acupuncture treatment for bedwetting should be based on the principles of warming and tonifying the spleen and kidneys, invigorating Qi and consolidating the body. Acupoints selected should be mainly from the Ren meridian, bladder meridian and spleen meridian points, and the Guanyuan, Shenshu and Sanyinjiao points should be used for warming and tonifying techniques, while moxibustion should be used at the same time. After treatment, the child's lower abdomen will be filled, kidney yang will be invigorated, bladder control will be strong, and enuresis will be cured naturally. Clinically, significant improvement can generally be seen after 3 to 5 treatments.

However, attention should be paid to the following during treatment:

1. Parents must cooperate closely with the doctor and not scold the child. They should be careful not to make the child overly tired or excited during the day, control their water intake at night, wake them up in time to urinate at night, and gradually develop the habit of consciously urinating when awake.

2. The best time for treatment is in the afternoon or before going to bed. 3. If the treatment is ineffective after more than 10 times, it may indicate other pathogenic factors (such as urinary tract infection, malnutrition, incomplete brain development, brain trauma, etc.). The cause should be identified and actively treated.

4. Enuresis caused by congenital occult sacral bifida is generally difficult to cure within the first 10 years of age. However, as the child's body grows and develops, most of them can be quickly cured through acupuncture treatment around the age of 15.

5. For infants and young children under 3 years old, due to their incomplete intellectual development, they have not yet formed normal urination habits, so temporary enuresis is not considered pathological.

Auricular acupressure

Auricular acupressure is also very effective in treating bedwetting. The acupoints selected for treatment include Shenmen, bladder, kidney, Yuanzhong, urethra, etc. Among them, Shenmen has the effects of calming, soothing the nerves, and relieving pain. It can regulate the balance of excitement and inhibition of the cerebral cortex. Yuanzhong is the enuresis point and is the key acupoint for treating enuresis. Cooperating with Shenmen, it can regulate the cerebral cortex and restore the urination reflex to normal. The urethra, bladder, and kidney are corresponding acupoints, which complement each other and have the functions of consolidating the bladder, replenishing Qi and strengthening the foundation, reducing urine and stopping enuresis. We use fenugreek seed ear acupoint pressing. Place a small piece of adhesive tape with fenugreek seed granules on the selected ear acupoints and press them. Apply pressure alternately on both ears, switching every other day. 1 course of treatment consists of 6 times.

The navel is an ancient treatment method in the field of traditional Chinese medicine for internal diseases and external treatment. The navel, whose acupoint is called Shenque, is an important acupoint among the eight extraordinary meridians. The Ren Meridian is connected to the Du Meridian, Chong Meridian, Dai Meridian, etc., and gathers the qi and blood of the whole body. It connects the twelve meridians, the five internal organs, and the skin, flesh, tendons and bones. Therefore, the navel is connected to all meridians and meridians, and the yin and yang complement each other, playing the role of regulating the physiological activities of various internal organs. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine theory, administering medicine through the navel is beneficial to directly reach the diseased area, achieve the purpose of expelling pathogens and restoring the body.

From the perspective of modern medicine, the stratum corneum of the umbilical epidermis is thinner, the barrier function is the weakest, there is no fat tissue under the skin, and the skin is directly connected to the fascia and abdominal wall. In addition to the microcirculation of the umbilical skin, there is also a rich network of veins in the subumbilical peritoneum. These are used for drugs to penetrate the skin and be absorbed into the human circulation and lymphatic immune system to exert a direct effect of the drugs. Therefore, the umbilicus is easier to absorb drugs than other transdermal drug delivery sites. Moreover, the drug effect is long-lasting and uninterrupted, avoiding the unfavorable treatment factor that oral medications are at a low peak when nocturnal enuresis occurs frequently. Nanotechnology is used to target the treatment of bedwetting.
