The child caught a cold, which acupoints should he press?
When the baby has a cold, find three acupoints: Tiantu, Zhongshan and Shu Fei.

The tiantu acupoint is located in the center of the suprasternal fossa. Massage this point can relieve cough, asthma, sore throat and other symptoms. Zhongshan point is located in the midline in front of the body, between the two nipples. Massage this point can relieve chest tightness, cough and asthma, vomiting and other symptoms. Shu Fei point is located on the back of human body. Below the spinous process of the third thoracic vertebra, open two fingers on the left and right. Massage this part can treat respiratory diseases.

The specific massage technique is: because the baby is small, parents can gently press the acupoints clockwise or counterclockwise with their thumb or forefinger fingertips, two to three times a day, each time for 2 minutes, which can have obvious effects.

In addition to relieving children's cold symptoms through massage, you can also choose some Chinese medicines containing cassia twig and mint to stick on these three acupoints, which can also have the effect of treating colds. Traditional Chinese medicines for treating colds, such as cassia twig and mint, are best ground into fine powder, mixed with hot honey and made into pills, cooled and pasted on the above acupuncture points with adhesive tape. -Maruko Parenting Network
