1 feet of water, pepper for a long time continuously, feel the original symptoms disappeared, should be stopped for several days, such as lack of symptoms when, or it may appear in ancient Chinese medicine said "exhaust gas" and "fire from water" phenomenon. In this regard, from my experience: the excessive use of pepper water to soak the foot, is the main cause of "lung fire", and "excessive fire consuming Qi", so in addition, Qi, phlegm, cough, runny nose also appeared colds and other respiratory problems also prove this point.

2, yin deficiency symptoms, feet of water with pepper in the process, should pay attention to timely Yin, especially in winter. Because the pepper water to soak the foot through the waterway, dispelling cold, digestion and other effects, and sweating phenomenon and in the process, so the same as some other Yang drugs "dry" feeling, especially for yin deficiency symptoms, according to Yin pepper feet of water, otherwise it will aggravate the symptoms of Yin deficiency.

From my personal experience, because the regular sports activities, such as sweating, do not pay attention to nourishing Yin, yin deficiency often appear symptoms, coupled with pepper water to soak the foot, so I often consciously Yin, such as yam with boiled water to drink boiled water to drink boiled water to drink with lotus root, pear, or eat some fruit, replenish moisture. Note: for many middle-aged and elderly people, the effect of drinking white water alone is not ideal, especially for people with Yin deficiency.

4, because of the absorption effect of the drug soaking is obvious, I think the pepper water should not be repeated use too many times, prevent the corruption of the pepper water have an adverse effect on the body, if you want to save, suggest up to two to three times, but then put boiling heating to proper temperature and cool.

5, soaking time not too long, generally just sweat, it is best not to sweat. For the beginning of their feet, or a cold body of people, may be initially for a period of time not sweat, it is cold in the performance, may be appropriate to increase the dosage and frequency, until the perspiration.

6, the water temperature can not be too low, slightly feel a little hot, to constant temperature;

7, soaking time, if health care, at nine pm or so is appropriate, if some people treat the suggestions in the morning, I think it can be flexible, when necessary, can be two times a day;

8, the best foot at the same time, along with the hand with the bubble, or massage the foot by hand, so better.
