[0040] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0041] Prolonged bed rest slows blood circulation to the feet, leading to insufficient oxygen and nutrient supply. This is especially true for diabetic patients who require prolonged bed rest for various reasons, increasing the risk of complications such as neuropathy, impaired skin integrity, and deep vein thrombosis. Patients undergoing orthopedic surgery who require prolonged bed rest also experience slower blood flow to the lower limbs, affecting wound healing and increasing the risk of lower limb thrombosis and infection. Foot fumigation with traditional Chinese medicine works by dilating blood vessels in the feet through heat, promoting blood circulation, accelerating metabolism, and helping to eliminate toxins and waste, thereby enhancing health and relieving fatigue. While fumigation effectively promotes blood flow to the feet, there are currently no foot fumigation shoes specifically designed for bedridden patients. Therefore, this invention provides a foot steam fumigation device for bedridden patients to promote better recovery and improve patient comfort for those who are bedridden for extended periods.

[0042] This utility model discloses a steam fumigation device for the feet of bedridden patients, comprising a fumigation shoe 1, an air inlet pipe 2, a water outlet pipe 3, and a temperature-controlled steaming device 4.
