What about rheumatic leg pain?

Rheumatic leg pain is caused by wind, cold and dampness. It should be treated by dispelling wind and cold. Acupuncture, cupping or moxibustion can be used for treatment. Moxibustion is a good treatment for rheumatic leg pain, because moxibustion can warm meridians and dissipate cold, activate blood circulation and relieve pain. In addition, the position of acupoints is different according to the condition. If it is only waist and leg pain, the cause should be analyzed. If it is leg pain caused by intervertebral disc, Jiaji acupoints are mainly selected, and Ashi acupoints are selected for treatment of affected meridians. If leg pain caused by cold, Chengjin, Chengshan and gastrocnemius muscle belly should be the main points. In addition, if leg pain caused by rheumatism caused by knee joint paralysis, Xuehai, Liangqiu, inner and outer knee eyes should be the main points.
