Hello everyone, I am a Chinese medicine practitioner, Zhang Chunhong.
Today I will share a prescription that I have used for 20 years to treat stomach problems, and it has been used again and again. Next, Dr. Zhang will use the following medical case to tell you about the wonder of this recipe.
During the New Year's Day holiday, Dr. Zhang had a small gathering with several old friends, one of whom had not seen her for more than ten years, when I first saw her, I was so thin that I almost didn't know her, and then I also observed that she was not only emaciated, but also had a bad complexion, and the whole person's spirit was not good, I thought it was because she had a bad life over the years.
After a long time of reminiscence, I learned that this friend had been suffering from gastritis for seven or eight years, and he also took a lot of medicine during this period, but he never completely improved, and always recurred.
I told her: You can't delay this gastritis any longer, it's useless to take so many medicines before, it may be that you don't really match your syndrome, you come to my hospital after the holiday, I'll show you.
In this way, in the hospital, after my detailed inquiry, I learned that the most uncomfortable place for her is usually stomach pain, and frequent attacks, accompanied by burning and stinging sensations in the stomach, and reflux and nausea after meals, and stomach distension after a little eating. Looking at her recent gastroscopy report, she has changed from superficial gastritis at the beginning to atrophic gastritis with moderate intestinalization. Looking at the appearance of his tongue, the tongue is dark red, there are ecchymosis on the side of the tongue, the tongue coating is thin and white, the tongue is dry, and the green tendons under the tongue are black and purple.
After the above understanding, I argued that this was caused by the lack of stomach yin and the lack of stomach qi.
Conditioning should: nourish stomach yin, promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis, regulate qi and relieve pain.
So the prescription was: sand ginseng, dendrobium, zhimu, pollen, white peony, hawthorn, chicken gold, red peony, tangerine peel, black plum meat, salvia, yanhusuo, danpi, licorice, etc.
The result?
After a course of treatment, she came back to the clinic and reported that the burning sensation in her stomach was much less, her appetite was much better, and her stomach pain was not so frequent. Then, I adjusted the prescription according to her constitution and the improvement of her symptoms at that time, and asked her to continue taking it. And told her that if you stick to three courses of treatment, your physique can basically be adjusted, and you must avoid spicy and irritating foods at ordinary times.
Why did this work so quickly?
First of all, the patient's tongue coating is thin and white and dry, indicating that the loss of yin and jin is severe, and because of the lack of stomach yin, yin can not balance yang, resulting in deficiency heat and burning the stomach, so she will have a burning sensation in the tail, acid reflux, and loss of appetite, and the sand ginseng, dendrobium, and zhimu in the formula are all used to nourish the stomach yin;
Lack of stomach yin, coupled with the internal disturbance of the void fire, will lead to poor flow of qi and blood and resulting in stasis, so the patient will have a tingling sensation in the stomach, so red peony, salvia, hawthorn, and Yanhusuo are used here to activate blood and dispel blood stasis and open up the qi in her body;
Lack of stomach yin will also lead to a weakening of the spleen and stomach's ability to transport, and food cannot be absorbed and transformed in time, so she will have loss of appetite and stomach distension after meals. The chicken inner gold has the effect of eliminating food and strengthening the stomach, which can be used to alleviate this situation.
This is the basic idea of medication.
Finally, Dr. Zhang would like to remind everyone that the compatibility in the text must be used for reference and application under the guidance of TCM physicians. Non-specialist readers, even if you feel that you are very similar to the patient in the medical case, try not to try blindly.
Stomach diseases need to be treated by three points and seven points of nourishment, so everyone should also pay more attention to dietary problems, do not be overly tired, and manage emotions well.
