There are no Sunnah days for cupping (hijama) in this month of Muharam as the 17th, 19th and 21st of Muharam do not correspond with a Monday, Tuesday or Thursday.
The next best days for cupping (hijama) this month are the nearest Monday, Tuesday and Thursday to the 17th, 19th and 21st of Muharam which are as follows:
Tuesday 16th Muharam 1430 - Tuesday 13th January 2009
Thursday 18th Muharam 1430 - Thursday 15th January 2009
Monday 22nd Muharam 1430 - Monday 19th January 2009
Cupping (Hijama) While fasting Or In The State Of Ihram
Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) was cupped on his head for a unilateral headache while he was in Ihraam. [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (5701)].
Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) was cupped while he was fasting. [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (5694)].
Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) was asked: "Did you dislike cupping for the fasting person?" He said, "No except for the reason of one becoming weak." [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (1940)].
This is not affected by the hadeeth, "The cupper and the one being cupped have broken their fast."
[Saheeh see Irwaa al-Ghaleel (931)]. This is because the hadeeth is
abrogated as Sheikh al-Albaani and ibn Hazm (may Allah have mercy upon
them) showed by the following hadeeth:
Abu Sa'eed al-Khudhree (may Allaah be pleased with him) said, "The Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) validated cupping for the fasting person." [Saheeh see Irwaa al-Ghaleel (4/74)].
It
appears that cupping (hijama) is allowed but disliked as Anas ibn
Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) mentioned because the fasting
person becomes weak if they perform cupping (hijama) and Allah knows
best.
As for the Islamic day and night, the night enters before the day. So at sunset on Tuesday, Wednesday night comes in. Cupping (hijama) is best performed during the daytime between the adhaan of fajr and the adhaan of maghrib because yawm in arabic means daytime.
The Sunnah days for cupping (hijama) every month are when the 17th or 19th or 21st of the lunar month coincide with a Monday, Tuesday or Thursday. These are the best and most beneficial days for cupping (hijama). If one is not able to be cupped on 17th, 19th or 21st (coinciding with Monday, Tuesday or Thursday) then any Monday, Tuesday or Thursday of the month. The most beneficial days for cupping (hijama) after the Sunnah days are the closest Monday, Tuesday or Thursday to the Sunnah days and Allah knows best.

JazakAllah khair for your support.
The Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, "Whoever revives a
Sunnah from my Sunnah and the people practise it will have the same reward
of those that practise it without their reward diminishing…"
[Sunan ibn Maajah (209)].
