How to put cans on the back

I will never forget, as in the days of military service, I put the banks on my back to the chief of staff. I served as a military feldsher, or more accurately a medical orderly. In fact, it should be noted that in the army, young people are practically not sick. So for days on end I was sitting in the bathroom with a book and a cup of strong coffee. For two years of service, there was once something like an epidemic of flu and my boss, a battalion doctor, announced a quarantine.

But one day my peace was disturbed by the appearance of our major-in-chief in the medical unit. Right from the door he asked the question: "A paramedic, do you know how to put the banks on your back?" A strange question, is not it? Well, if you have not noticed, Comrade Major, it's a medical unit, and I'm here to put the banks on my back if necessary. This is what I thought to myself, but out loud: "Yes, Comrade Major! I know how to put cans on my back, but I can do it perfectly! "

It turned out that our NS (the chief of staff) had coughed since morning, and just then his mom called from Moscow. So she demanded that he immediately begin to be treated. In general, during at least a week, he should alternate banks with mustard plasters and mom will control.

I imagine how she chastised the poor wife of the major: "How can you not know how to put the banks on your back? Here in our time! ». In their time, probably all the diseases were treated purely by banks, mustard plasters and milk with soda and honey. Well, naturally, unlike the wife of the NS, a military paramedic knows how to put banks on his back and not only, that's why I started to perform my direct duties.

The next two weeks was not boring. Periodically, other officers also tried to measure pressure or "put a bump". Caring mothers. Soldiers and sergeants are engaged in combat training, they learn the Charter, and the officers get used to the medical unit.

Well, while the treatment was under way, I between our business enlightened our major in matters of traditional and traditional medicine. I think that you will not be hampered by such knowledge.

In the medical school we were told that the treatment with cans came to us from ancient times. Nevertheless, this method is approved by modern medicine, since it really helps with many diseases, including:

• bronchitis,
• Bronchial asthma,
• Pneumonia,
• radiculitis.

In ancient times, instead of the cans we used, pottery was used. Hollow inside the horns of animals were also used. Glass banks experienced a peak of their popularity in the early and middle of the 20th century and, of course, were in every home. In our age of speed, people, in order not to waste time, prefer banks to taking any super antibiotics. But, nevertheless, there is a renewed popularity of old, proven methods of treatment that benefit the body.

Let's go back to the medical unit, because the major was waiting, and on it I'll train you. So, putting the major right on the stomach (hands clasping the pillow, and the head turned to one side), I took out of the locker all the necessary tools:

• Sterile medical jars. Syringes, cans, medical instruments were sterilized daily.
• Ether is medical. You can take alcohol and even triple cologne, but in the school we were taught using ether.
• Petrolatum.
• Matches.
• Clamp. You can tweezers.
• Vata.

How to put cans on the back - technique of execution

• I rub my back with petroleum jelly.
• I build the wick with a clamp (tweezers) and cotton wool. Banks stand within the reach of a free hand.
• I moisten the wick with ether (alcohol, cologne) and ignite it from a burning match.
• Burning wick I place in the jar literally for ½ - 1 sec.
• I immediately put the can to my skin. The skin is safely drawn into the jar, becomes red or even crimson.
• In the same way I put the remaining cooked jars. Major put 16 pieces.
• I cover the patient with a clean sheet, and on top with a blanket. Lies up to 15 minutes.
• I remove carefully all the cans, deflecting to the side and simultaneously pressing down the skin.
• I rub the skin with clean gauze or cotton.

That's all! Now the patient should lie down, again covered by a blanket about half an hour, and I tell him about the benefits of the procedure.
