Is there anything that can be done when acupuncture hits the sympathetic nerves causing panic attacks, sweating, and lack of energy?

Is there anything that can be done when acupuncture hits the sympathetic nerves causing panic attacks, sweating, and lack of energy?

In this case, it is a dizzy needle.

Normal needling, the patient, in addition to a slight pain in the entry of the needle, the needle localization or on the body can have acid, numbness, heavy, swelling or comfortable feeling, generally acceptable.

And in the process of acupuncture patients appear dizziness, nausea, chest tightness, pallor, and even cold limbs, cold sweat, blood pressure drop and fainting and other shock or defecation, it is a fainting needle.

There are still more reasons for needle fainting, so it is generally believed that needle fainting is a combination of multiple factors causing transient cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, which includes. Patients receiving acupuncture treatment for the first time due to mental tension, coupled with acupuncture when the patient is hungry, or sweating, diarrhea, hemorrhage after a weak body, or emotional depression, tension, stress, or a history of needle fainting, or clinic environment is not good, stuffy or cold, and the use of standing, sitting position and other conditions can cause needle fainting; for the medical practitioner, most of the needle fainting events caused by the doctor's manipulation of the stimulation of the amount of too much,. In addition, some patients may experience delayed motion sickness caused by electroacupuncture.

When the occurrence of needle fainting, we should promptly remove all the needle on the patient, support the patient lying down, head down, loosen the belt, pay attention to ventilation and warmth, or give the patient to drink warm water, the phenomenon of needle fainting generally lasts for 3 to 5 minutes can be relieved and disappeared.

As for the more serious symptoms, patients with syncope can finger pinch or acupuncture Renzhong, Zhongchong, Neiguan, Ashigaru or moxibustion Hundred Clubs, Guanyuan, Shenque and other acupuncture points, if necessary, with modern first aid measures, and soon return to normal, and the prognosis is good, there will be no after-effects.

On the patient's part, if there is an aura of needle fainting, it can also be regulated by deep breathing. Some patients will be allergic to metal needles, some will be allergic to electro-acupuncture, and there are also cases of allergic rashes after needling, and the allergic symptoms can disappear after symptomatic treatment.

It should be the manifestation of fainting, directly out of the needle, lie down, drink warm water, rest, will be relieved. If you don't get relief, you can directly stab Renzhong and Neiguan to save your life. I've never heard of anyone dying from fainting needles, so don't worry too much. Secondly, even if the sympathetic nerves, causing panic, you can also acupuncture Neiguan regulation.

Fainting needles, it doesn't matter, there are acupoints to solve fainting needles, Shaofu, the solution point is Liangqiu, two acupoints, just lie down.

The strange thing is that the effect is doubled after fainting needles, and there used to be a special school of acupuncture that was a strong stimulus that zapped you until you were fainting needles

Are the symptoms still there after the needle is removed? If not it is normal. If not, it's normal. On the one hand, think of needle sickness. On the other hand, consider body weakness. These subsequent symptoms can be treated. First drink some sugar water. Get some rest! Another question is to ask what's caught. The general extremity points should not react much. The chest and abdomen are slightly heavier.

Fainting Needle. First pull out the needle, another needle puncture Renzhong, Hegu, if the panic is not eased, can be needled Neiguan. Words to calm the patient's mood, drink a cup of warm water slowly, and let him or her half lying down for observation.

The jargon of Chinese medicine, called line needle, and you stick the needle to cause panic is not a disadvantage, but your line of error, the margin of redemption, from your line of acupuncture points, half a centimeter, and then another line, while pulling out the first one, the mood is naturally relaxed ;)

This is an obvious case of "needle sickness", and it is reassuring to know that it does not usually have any particularly serious consequences.

There are three general causes of needle fainting:

  1. First time to stab the needle. Because it has not experienced, there will be fear of the needle, nervousness, this situation the body is in a tense state, after the needle pain a stimulus, it will produce fainting needle.

  2. The body is relatively weak and cannot tolerate the mobilization of qi and blood. For example, many women just after menstruation, without timely feedback with the doctor on the needle, when the qi and blood is relatively weak, a mobilization of qi will make some parts of the qi and blood supply is insufficient, resulting in fainting needles.

  3. Dizziness reaction. Sometimes after the needle on the patient appeared obvious dizzy needle, acupuncture is completed after going home and found that the disease soon relieved, some even dizzy needle finished on the spot can be relieved, this is the stun reaction. It is due to acupuncture to break the balance of qi and blood in the long time under the state of disease, at first return to the normal balance, the body does not adapt. This principle is similar to the medication "medicine does not close the dizziness, syncope disease can not be convalescent".

Remove the needle if dizziness occurs. Try to keep the patient lying down, loose clothing, keep the airway open, and keep warm in cold environments. You can give the patient some sugar water, let the patient lie still for a few minutes, usually can be completely relieved. If the symptoms are serious, the patient has difficulty in breathing, mania and other manifestations, this is not the ordinary fainting needle, it is recommended to carry out relevant examinations, but this situation is rare.

First withdraw the needle quickly and have the patient lie down and rest for a few moments. Then the needle again. This is medically known as halo needling, and often such patients are treated better than the average patient.

Anyone who knows acupuncture knows that this is a case of fainting, so either calm the patient for a while, or press and rub the relief points.

A few minutes of lying flat on your back and some brown sugar water will fix it.
