Why can rapeseed oil reduce swelling

Rapeseed oil is naturally the oil fried from rapeseed. The most commonly used edible oil is squeezed from plants with high oil content such as melon seeds or peanuts, which tastes fragrant. Rapeseed oil lacks the fatty acids needed by the human body, so people who generally lose weight will choose to eat rapeseed oil. Some people think that applying rapeseed oil to swollen parts can reduce swelling. So what is the reason?

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that rapeseed oil has the effect of dispersing heat and reducing swelling and toxins. However, rapeseed oil is not very effective in reducing swelling when the body is swollen and painful due to injury, inflammation, etc. You can use Yunnan Baiyao spray and other medicinal treatments to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. In addition, you can also use cold compresses to quickly reduce swelling when you feel pain. There is a kind of mustard glycoside in rapeseed oil. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that rapeseed oil is sweet and spicy, and has the effects of moisturizing, killing insects, and eliminating swelling and pain. But this effect is relatively weak and takes a long time to take effect. The best way is to use symptomatic medication, such as Yunnan Baiyao spray.

Rapeseed oil is what we commonly call rapeseed oil, also known as rapeseed oil and coriander oil. It is an edible oil extracted from rapeseed. Rapeseed oil is golden or brown in color and has a certain pungent smell, which people call "green smell". This smell is caused by a certain amount of mustard glycosides, but special varieties of rapeseed do not contain this substance. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, rapeseed oil is sweet, spicy and warm in nature. It can moisturize, kill insects, disperse heat and reduce swelling. It is clinically used for ascaris and food-induced intestinal obstruction with good results.

Scalp hematoma is mostly caused by head injury after falling off a motorcycle. The head has a rich blood supply, which can cause the capillaries under the scalp to rupture, causing a large amount of blood to flow out, leading to symptoms of swelling and pain. A CT scan of the head should be performed. After excluding intracranial lesions, ice compresses should be applied to the swollen areas of the head to cause the capillaries to contract and reduce bleeding. After three days, hot compress therapy should be given to the head, and external application of safflower oil, Yunnan Baiyao aerosol, oral relaxation tablets and other medications should be taken.
