Hegu and Yingxiang.
These two acupoints can be combined to treat nasal inflammation.
Even if you don't know acupuncture, massage can also work, just that the effect is not as strong as acupuncture.
However, the nasal exercise that Lu Jiu taught Huang Qi already includes the Yingxiang point, so massaging these two points is optional.
Of course, if you do the nasal exercise and also use ginger moxibustion on the Hegu acupoint, the effect will be quite noticeable.
"Dr. Lu, how many times a day should I do this nasal exercise?" Huang Qi asked.
Lu Jiu smiled, "You can do it as many times as you like, there's no limit. Just do it whenever you feel uncomfortable."
"However, this exercise is only for clearing the orifices. It will help in the short term, but it won't solve the root of the problem, meaning the effect is there but limited. Of course, after today's acupuncture session, you should be able to get a good night's sleep."
