In life, people are no strangers to pasting ointments, but they need to pay more attention to their use, and under normal use, they should be pasted once a day during the course of treatment, which generally lasts for 2~3 weeks. Since most ointments contain blood-invigorating and soothing ingredients, such as safflower, musk, salicylic acid, etc., it is recommended to communicate with your doctor before using them.
As soon as many people have pain, they will directly "tear and pat" the ointment and apply the ointment. In fact, if you can go the extra mile before applying the ointment, the effect of the ointment will be better. The correct steps to apply the ointment are as follows:
Step 1: Before applying the ointment, clean the skin with a towel, then disinfect it with alcohol, and wait until the surface of the skin is dry before applying.
Step 2: Identify the most obvious pain and place the paste in the middle.
Step 3: After the plaster is applied, apply it with a hot dry towel to make it firmly pasted and accelerate the penetration of the ointment to ensure the efficacy.
It should be reminded that:
1. Do not use the plaster for more than 8 hours.
2. If there are pimples, blisters on the local skin after applying the plaster, or the itching is intense, it means that the skin is allergic to the plaster, and the ointment should be removed immediately and the patch should be stopped, and the anti-allergic cream halomethasone or dexamethasone cream can be applied locally, and loratadine capsules 10mg can be taken in severe cases, once a day, for 3-5 days.
3. Do not exceed 3 pieces of ointment.
4. Patients with high blood pressure and coronary heart disease, try not to apply ointment. Because the ointment contains blood-invigorating ingredients, it will have an impact on the condition.
5. In the cervical spine and shoulder area, when you want to apply ointment, measure your blood pressure first. If the blood pressure is below 60mmHg or above 140mmHg, ointment is not recommended.
6. Pregnant women generally do not apply plasters, otherwise it will affect the health of the fetus.
Most of the plasters contain ingredients that invigorate blood circulation and dispel blood stasis, such as safflower, musk, etc., which are irritating to the uterus, and can also cause the body's blood circulation to speed up, causing uterine contractions, causing miscarriage and premature birth. Some plasters contain lead, which can be absorbed through the skin after use by pregnant women, which may cause fetal malformations. In addition, some plasters have a pungent taste, and pregnant women may irritate the nasal passages after using the plaster, affecting normal sleep.
During pregnancy, as the fetus grows, the center of gravity of the pregnant woman changes, and the enlarged uterus will compress the lumbar muscles, causing lower back pain, and some women will have leg pain due to the uterus compressing the lumbar spine. When this happens, it is necessary to rest more and avoid walking for a long time, which can generally relieve the symptoms, and it is not recommended to relieve the symptoms with plasters.
