Recently, I received a patient with constipation, his situation is very interesting, and I will share it with you today.
This patient has been constipated for a while, according to his own words, he didn't take it seriously at first, and at the beginning it was difficult to defecate, so he ate some bananas and dragon fruit, and he didn't care about the stool coming out. As a result, it became more and more difficult to pass stool, and I took a lot of laxative medicines, which could be pulled out at that time, and the symptoms were not cured.
After the examination, I told the patient, don't take these medicines, and try not to touch bananas and dragon fruit, otherwise, you will only get worse and worse!
Why? As soon as this patient's hand was put on it, the first thing she felt was cold, and after asking, she found that she usually has cold hands and feet, and she is very afraid of cold. Looking at her face again, she is pale, so what is her condition, it is constipation caused by lack of yang energy.
Yang deficiency and constipation are like the cold weather in winter, the river water is frozen, is it that the boat will not be able to drive? Looking at the medicine that this patient usually takes, it is mainly to clear heat and moisten the intestines and laxative, including bananas and dragon fruit, which are all cold foods, but the more you eat, the heavier it becomes?
So her constipation, the first conditioning principle, is Wenyang. There is a recipe called Jichuan decoction, the main function is to warm the kidneys, improve the essence, moisten the intestines and laxative, and specifically regulate constipation caused by yang deficiency.
There are a total of 6 herbs in the formula, among which Cistanche warms the kidneys and helps yang, nourishes the kidney essence, Angelica sinensis nourishes the blood, plays a role in moistening the intestines and laxatives, ox knee nourishes the liver and kidneys, citrus aurantium husk qi, which is equivalent to giving a driving force, Ze Yuanli urinate to discharge the dampness in the kidneys, and the last flavor of cimicifuga is promoted to clear the yang, and the citrus aurantium is matched with one rise and one fall, so that the human body's qi machine turns up, and the whole recipe not only moistens the intestines and laxatives, but also warms the kidneys and benefits the essence, which can be said to be both a symptom and a cure.
Defecation is the last link of our human body's digestive activities, think about it, if the stool is not clear, can not be discharged, will the things that come in later have to come in a "big traffic jam" in the body?
Here I would like to remind you that we are only here to share the knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine with you, not to let you copy the original prescription to use, you must be cautious when it comes to medication, you must use the medicine under the guidance of a professional doctor, and do not use it without authorization!
