In recent years, the market of "three-volt stickers" is hot, and the providers have gradually moved from big hospitals to medical institutions at all levels, even beauty salons. The overwhelming publicity from the media and friends circle also made unknown so citizens think that "three-volt stickers" are "all-purpose stickers", scrambling to queue up, and even grabbing the number to paste.
The so-called extremes meet, and once something that is highly sought after has problems, the next step is likely to be "destroyed" by groups.
On July 12 -13, 92 children suffered from adverse reactions caused by the three-day sticker in Jiangxi Children’s Hospital. The picture was shocking, and the youngest child was only 11 months old.
On July 24, a woman in Yangzhou suffered more than 20 second-degree burns all over her body because of sticking a "three-volt sticker";
In Zhengzhou, according to incomplete statistics, since the dog days this year alone, there have been more than ten burn patients in the Burn Department of Zhengzhou First People’s Hospital.
In fact, the dispute about "three-volt stickers" has a long history, and there is no agreement. On the one hand, it is extremely popular and even "mythical", which can "cure all diseases"; On the other hand, it is a three-day sticker that has been vilified and attacked, and it has been called "a scam" and "a lot of harm" from the media.
So, is the three-volt sticker useful? Is there a threshold for application therapy? With these questions, the reporter of Yingxiang.com visited many hospitals and drug stores in Zhengzhou to see the market survey of "three-volt stickers" in Zhengzhou.
Zhengzhou’s "three-volt stickers" are popular.
According to incomplete statistics, Henan Provincial People’s Hospital, the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Henan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Luoyang Orthopedic Hospital of Henan Province, Zhengzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Zhengzhou People’s Hospital, Zhengzhou First People’s Hospital and other public hospitals, as well as major Chinese medicine museums in Zhengzhou, all have three-day stickers.
The crowd waiting to be pasted.
The concept of "treating diseases and protecting oneself from diseases" urges many Zhengzhou citizens to accept the three-day patch. On the first day of each year, large hospitals and Chinese medicine museums all over Zhengzhou are crowded with old people and children waiting for the patch.
During the reporter’s visit, the application process in most hospitals is relatively standardized, and the patients need to register in the Chinese medicine department or a special department. After pulse diagnosis and inquiry, the Chinese medicine doctor will judge the physical fitness, determine whether it is suitable to apply the three-volt patch, then select the appropriate acupoints and meridians, and finally remind the patients of the application time and matters needing attention.
In the application rooms of many hospitals, the three-volt plaster is wrapped in white or yellow adhesive tape with ointment in the middle. The reporter of Yingxiang. com inquired that these formulas usually include Chinese herbal medicines such as white mustard seed, kansui, asarum and ginger juice, but the proportion and technology of core ingredients are different from hospital to hospital.
The reporter interviewed Yang Zefeng, the attending physician of the Chinese medicine department of Zhengzhou First People’s Hospital. He introduced that in recent years, the medication of the three-volt patch in Zhengzhou First People’s Hospital has been improving, and the drug ratio needs to be verified many times every year, and the Chinese medicine doctor first tries it out, observes the performance of the drug and ensures safety before putting it into use.
Yang Zefeng tried the three-volt patch and compared its medicinal properties.
"This year, we made three kinds of three-volt stickers. The first drug did not have an effect on the skin, and the drug was too weak to achieve the effect; The second one is too strong, for fear of causing damage to the patient’s skin. Finally, we modulated the third one, and the effect was just right. " Yang Zefeng said.
In terms of age limit, Zhengzhou Children’s Hospital is suitable for children over six months. Zhengzhou people’s hospital is suitable for children over two years old; The First People’s Hospital of Zhengzhou City recommends children over three years old to apply.
In addition, a number of Chinese medicine museums are also promoting the three-volt stickers. Among them, a Chinese medicine museum on Huanghe South Road in Zhengdong New District has different ingredients for children and adults. "Adults are made of ginger, and children’s three-volt stickers are made of oil." The staff of the medicine museum said.

During the reporter’s visit, many medicine museums, especially Chinese medicine museums, have carried out three-volt stickers, and some of them have also carried out a series of summer treatment projects for winter diseases, such as the radiant stickers for men, the warm stickers for women, the warm stickers for women, the healthy stickers for the elderly, and the health stickers for children.
In addition, there are TCM physical examination, TCM physique identification, individualized timely nursed back to health programs, facing individuals, families and groups, treating winter diseases in summer and protecting yang.
The market is hot and chaotic.
At present, the market cake of "treating winter diseases in summer" is getting bigger and bigger, and the popularity of three-volt stickers has also brought a lot of chaos. Some businesses smell the "business opportunities", such as "black clinics", health care centers, pharmacies, e-commerce companies, etc., which have successively introduced "post-it notes" and "universal stickers" of three-volt stickers. Patients buy them themselves and apply them according to the acupuncture points on the map, and exaggerate the effect of treating winter diseases in summer.

According to incomplete statistics, the Burn Department of Zhengzhou No.1 People’s Hospital has received more than a dozen patients, including adults and children, but the injuries are generally not too serious, so it is only necessary to treat and use drugs in outpatient clinics without hospitalization.
In the Department of Prevention and Treatment of Diseases of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Henan Province, experts have also received patients with adverse reactions after applying three-volt stickers in health centers and beauty shops.
As early as 2013, state administration of traditional chinese medicine’s "Notice on Strengthening the Application and Management of Acupoint Sticking Technology for Treating Winter Diseases in Summer" clearly stipulated that "Three-volt Sticks" are mainly suitable for recurrent chronic respiratory diseases, and can also be used for other diseases characterized by recurrent attacks and aggravation in winter, with TCM syndrome differentiation as cold syndrome. It is strictly forbidden to expand the application scope and application population for the unreasonable pursuit of economic benefits.
"The popularity of three-day stickers shows that the public has a sense of identity with Chinese medicine, which is a good thing. However, some commercial operations at present have made many Chinese medicine therapies lose their essence. Moreover, Chinese medicine belongs to empirical medicine, and the norms of drug use and acupoints of the three-day patch must have certain qualifications. Therefore, when you apply the three-volt patch, you must go to a regular medical institution, dialectical physique, and then choose the appropriate acupoint for application. " Yang Zefeng said.
Is the three-volt sticker useful?
At present, different people have different opinions on the curative effect of the three-volt patch. According to the professional’s literature search, the three-day patch was first seen in Zhang’s Yitong in 1695. It was made of white mustard seed, asarum, kansui, ginger juice, etc. It was used to treat asthma, and not all types of asthma, but only one syndrome in asthma, called "cold asthma".
In 1955, on the basis of excavating and sorting out the prescriptions of Qing Dynasty, many old experts took the lead in treating respiratory diseases with acupoint application therapy for treating winter diseases in summer.
In 2004, after the three-dog patch became popular all over China, its indications were expanded to treat many diseases, including respiratory system, pediatrics, gynecology and so on, and its usage was also changed, from daubing to pasting, and the course of treatment was changed from one year (one dog day) to three years (three dog days) now.

"Three-day patch is also called foaming moxibustion, which is a kind of traditional scar moxibustion. Chinese medicine judges yin and yang, cold and heat, deficiency and excess in the human body according to personal physique, and uses white mustard seed, ginger juice and other medicinal materials with strong irritation to the skin as foaming agents, which will cause certain irritation to the skin, but this degree must be grasped. " Yang Zefeng, the attending physician of the Chinese medicine department of Zhengzhou First People’s Hospital, said, "The medicine is weak and cannot achieve the effect of application; If the drug is too strong, it will cause burns and other injuries to the human body. "
There are three main questions about the three-volt stickers on the Internet: Can the drugs attached to the skin enter the body? Even if the drug can enter, can it reach a certain drug concentration? Even if it reaches the required drug concentration, can it be treated in winter?
In this regard, Jiao Naijun, director of Henan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, believes that the three-day patch is not simply to apply drugs to the skin, nor is it simply whether drugs can enter the body, but through acupuncture points and meridians, plus drug stimulation, the three cooperate to achieve results.
"The principle of the three-volt patch is similar to that of acupuncture and moxibustion in traditional Chinese medicine. The needle used in acupuncture actually does not bring any medicine, that is, it achieves the therapeutic effect through acupoint stimulation. Acupuncture was not recognized many years ago, but now acupuncture has gone abroad. " Jiao Naijun said.
In Jiao Naijun’s view, the theoretical basis of Sanfutie is the most classic treatment idea of Chinese medicine-treating winter diseases in summer, using the yang of the external environment in summer, supplemented by warm and cold-dispelling drugs, to spread the cold evil in the human body and achieve the effect of treating those cold diseases that cause trouble to everyone in winter.
"In summer, supporting yang and dispelling cold, harmonizing yin and yang, Sanfutie can condition the body to a better state, improve the overall disease resistance, and reduce the occurrence of winter diseases, not that drugs will play a role in winter." Jiao Naijun said.
For example, the most common diseases prone to attack in winter are respiratory diseases, such as asthma, emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Clinical experience shows that many patients can achieve better results after treating winter diseases in summer and applying acupoint, and the frequency and intensity of attacks decrease in cold weather.
Therefore, in recent years, the three-day patch has become an example of preventive treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, which is widely used all over the country, and its position is equivalent to the flu vaccination promoted by western medicine. There is no doubt that it is a formal medical means recognized and supported by orthodox theory.

However, the three-volt patch only prevents improvement and cannot promote treatment.
"Three-volt patch" can only prevent diseases such as respiratory system in winter and improve human immune function, but not treat diseases, and cannot completely replace other treatments for these diseases. Therefore, you must not blindly stop taking drugs or reduce drugs while applying treatment.
We should also look at the effect of the three-volt patch rationally. The three-volt patch is not a "universal patch" or a magic treatment for all diseases in the mouth of merchants, but it cannot be completely denied because of the adverse reactions caused by some irregular operations. It is a method of treating internal diseases and external diseases in traditional Chinese medicine, and it is an auxiliary means to treat diseases. The correct way to open the "three-volt patch" is to treat according to syndrome differentiation, adapt to the disease and apply it in a regular hospital.
Three-volt stickers need to be verified more scientifically
In 2013, state administration of traditional chinese medicine issued the "Notice on Strengthening the Application and Management of Acupoint Application Technology for Treating Winter Diseases in Summer", clearly stipulating that in the future, if "Treating Winter Diseases in Summer" is to be carried out, it must be applied by a legal medical institution of Chinese medicine or integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine, and it can only be carried out after passing the examination.
In 2018, the Health and Family Planning Commission of Henan Province and the Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Henan Province issued the Notice on Strengthening the Application and Management of Acupoint Sticking Technology for Treating Winter Diseases in Summer, further standardizing the filing management of acupoint sticking technology for treating winter diseases in summer (that is, three-day sticking), strengthening the application and management of technology, standardizing medical behavior and ensuring medical safety. It is clearly stipulated that medical institutions that have the qualification to carry out the three-volt patch service and provide the three-volt patch service should file relevant information with their registration authorities, and the filing contents involve the diseases treated by the three-volt patch, prescription drugs, acupoint selection, information about prescription-making doctors, contraindications and related precautions. If the prescription is adjusted or increased, the filing information should be updated in time.
However, the three-volt patch has not been tested by evidence-based medicine, and there has not been a clear regulation and procedural specification from the principle and efficacy of the three-volt patch to the processing idea and proportion of the prescription.
Therefore, the value and efficacy of three-volt stickers need to be re-verified and evaluated; Its popularization and application urgently need the country to formulate standardized drug ratio and standardized operation process.
As far as drug configuration is concerned, at present, the three-volt stickers promoted by medical institutions in Zhengzhou and all over the country are all in-hospital preparations, which have not passed the examination and approval of the State Drug Administration and have no approval number. The reason why Jiangxi Children’s Hospital caused burns is that the medical staff involved in the hospital adjusted the ratio of raw materials and drugs.
"We also hope that the relevant departments can further verify and make a systematic and standardized process for the proportion of drugs, processing details and precautions after application, so as to conduct a comprehensive standardized operation from top to bottom, from large hospitals to grassroots." Yang Zefeng said.
