The herb we are talking about today is called Summer Dry Grass.
The classic use of this medicine begins with one of my patients.
The patient's surname is Wang, female, 35 years old, from Harbin.
The patient was diagnosed with lobular hyperplasia of the breast in the local hospital one year ago. At that time, the drugs prescribed were aspartin tablets, breast Kang pills, and intramuscular injection of breast Kang injection. The effect was ok at first, but then it didn't work.
The patient has also been treated with traditional Chinese medicine for more than 2 months, and has improved slightly, but there is still no fundamental change.
In April, I was introduced to me for treatment. At that time, the patient's face was red, and the mental state was still OK.
Self-reported bilateral breasts with lumps, pain, especially premenstrual exacerbations, menstruation is basically normal.
There is a 5 cm × 4 cm × 3 .8cm lump on the right side of the breast, the surface is smooth, it can be moved, there is no redness, burning sensation, the edges are clear, the compression is painful, the tongue is light, the moss is thick and thick, and the pulse strings are thick.
The dialectic is hepatic qi depression, sputum obstruction blood coagulation.
It is advisable to rationalize gasification of phlegm, activate blood circulation, and loosen knots softly and firmly.
Prescription: Summer dry grass, tangerine peel, Wang Bu Liu Xing, loofah, soap horn thorn, ephedra, seaweed, licorice, green skin, tribulus terrestris, asparagus, winter, deer antler cream, yellow peel core. Start with 7 doses and decoct in water.
The patient was particularly happy when he finished the follow-up visit, the breast swelling and pain sensation was significantly reduced, and the menstrual flow was normal.
Dandelions and smallpox pollen were added to the second diagnosis. Open another 7 doses, while external use of glauber's salt, pentax powder, co-research fine powder, vinegar mixed with external compresses.
After the patient finished using it, he went to the hospital to check that the left side was cured, and there was a slight echo on the right side. Patients are particularly pleased. The original formula plus 1 times the amount of honey pills, a few grams at a time, after taking the healing.
This formula was originally derived from the prescription of Mr. Wu Qiyao, an old Chinese medicine doctor in Boai County, Henan Province, and then added it in combination with my own experience, and applied to the clinical treatment of breast hyperplasia and breast fibroma.
Although this party is added and subtracted from the tangerine peel soup, the jun medicine xia kuicao in the formula has to be said that the Shennong Materia Medica and the "Materia Medica Illustration" have long been recorded, "The main cold and heat of the summer dry grass, fistula, rat fistula, head sores, rupture, loose galls, swollen and wet feet." ”
So how exactly does the summer dry grass fall apart?
In Chinese medicine, the cause of nodules is that the liver qi is depressed, that is, the liver qi is not passed, and it becomes a qi knot over time. If the liver qi can be discharged, the qi is straightened out, and the nodules are mostly better.
Summer dry grass into the liver meridian, from its growth habits, the summer solstice withered, spring grows sharply, and spring and liver qi communication, so summer dry grass to get the liver qi the most. Spicy taste, spicy can be dispersed, if there is a local gas knot, with this spicy medicine, you can evacuate the liver qi. Especially people who love to be angry and often feel that their liver qi is not smooth, they often have summer dry grass at home.
But among so many medicinal herbs, why is the summer dry grass so effective?
It is because Xia Kuicao has a strong offensive and can be said to be a fierce general in many Chinese medicines. Although its appearance is not good, the local gas knot can be dissipated, and when the phlegm is glued together, it can also be evacuated.
In the flavored tangerine peel soup, Wang does not leave a line to activate the blood and pass through the menstruation, reduce swelling and relieve pain.
Soap horn thorns, loofah networks to reduce sputum swelling;
Seaweed, licorice, ephedra further strengthen the role of sputum dispersion;
In particular, the reuse of tangerine peel, not only has the function of strengthening the spleen and dryness, but also the source of phlegm wet biochemistry, and more rational qi dispersion, in order to eliminate the effect of phlegm nucleus, although its nature is warm, it is compatible with summer dry grass, and there is no harm to yin and yin.
The whole party sets rational qi, activates blood, circulates, disperses, dissolves phlegm in the body, and for the disease machine, the prescription is heavy, so the effect is faster.
In addition to conditioning breast nodules and thyroid nodules, it can also regulate lung nodules and lymph node tuberculosis. The residue left over after decoction can be applied to the affected area.
However, people with bitter cold spleen and stomach deficiency in summer dry grass are used with caution.
In addition, if it is a tonsil patient, summer dry grass plus eggs as a medicinal primer, compatible to use it to clear heat and swelling, but also not to damage its delicate spleen and stomach.
Summer dry grass, bitter, bitter, cold, has the effect of clearing heat and dispelling fire, soft and firm loose knots;
Eggs, sweet and flat, diet can nourish qi and blood, adjust the spleen and stomach, and can also alleviate the bitter cold nature of summer dry grass.
Take an appropriate amount of summer dry grass, 1 egg, boil egg grass soup like boiled tea eggs, and boil a bowl of two bowls of water. Filter out the dregs when taking, eat eggs and drink soup.
One of the things to pay attention to is that the spleen and stomach are cold with caution, and the other is that the prescription needs to be used during the intermittent period of the onset of the disease, if the tonsils are inflamed, there is no effect.
