Although cupping is part of traditional Chinese medicine therapy, what I need to note is that there is currently no reliable scientific evidence that cupping can directly cure colds. Colds are generally viral infections and usually heal on their own within 7-10 days. Some people use cupping mainly to relieve cold-related symptoms, such as back or shoulder and neck cupping, which may help relieve muscle tension or congestion. If you are considering trying cupping, I suggest： 1. Consult a professional Chinese medicine practitioner or qualified medical staff first 2. For the common cold, it is more important to take adequate rest, drink plenty of water and use over-the-counter medicines as needed to relieve symptoms. Please remember that any traditional therapy should be used as a supplement to conventional medical treatment, not as a substitute, especially when the symptoms are severe or last for a long time.
