Other body conditions following exercise and the like

First, let's talk about these conditions, and then move on to measures to eliminate fatigue that occurs on its own. Of these conditions, the loosening that occurs in the body due to light rubbing and bathing is treated with light, somewhat harsh and dry rubbing with astringent oil.

Coarsening resulting from cold, or from something astringent, or from a lot of excess, or the thickness or stickiness of the latter, leads to the retention of excess in the pores of the skin. Coarsening also occurs, in addition to the previous reasons, due to the fact that physical exercise attracts excess from the depths. The cause of hardening can also be being in a dusty place or strong and rough rubbing. As for the signs of hardening, which comes from cold or from something astringent, they are whiteness of color, slower heating of the skin and slower secretion of sweat, as well as a change in color to red during physical exercise. In such cases, you need to wash in a hot bath and lie in it on tobacco, moderately warm, and on bedding until sweat appears, then lubricate the body with hot and liquid oil, which has the property of causing resorption.

As for the hardening of the skin caused by physical exercise, its sign is the absence of the above signs and dirty skin. Treatment consists of shaking out excess, if any, and using resorption-inducing remedies such as baths and rubbing with oil.

Coarsening caused by dust or the like needs a bath more than rubbing with oil, but the body should be lightly rubbed before and after the bath.

Sometimes, after excessive exercise and gentle rubbing, the skin becomes loose and loose. This condition also occurs from excessive sexual intercourse and from frequent bathing. In such cases, it is necessary to treat with restorative physical exercise and dry, not very harsh rubbing with astringent oil, you should also eat a small amount of moisturizing food that is moderately cold and hot, or somewhat prone to hotness. The same should be done if weakness, insomnia, dejection or dryness caused by anger appear.

Persons suffering from poor digestion will not benefit from restorative physical exercise or any form of physical exercise at all.

From excessive consumption of baths, food and wine, as well as from an idle lifestyle, a person feels excess moisture in the parts of his body and, especially on the tongue, which harms the functioning of the body parts.

If such a condition is caused by some old reason, then this will be discussed in the Book of Private Diseases, and if it is caused by the reasons we have listed, such as drinking, an excessively quiet life or strong moisture from the bath, then it is necessary to bother yourself with strong physical exercise, hard and dry rubbing without oil or with a small amount of heated oil.

As for the excessive dryness that a person feels in his body, it falls into the category of “pale” fatigue and its treatment is exactly the same as the treatment for “pale” fatigue.
