Today I will tell you about a medical case of nervous tinnitus. This kind of tinnitus is very common in modern people, and it is mainly related to our mental stress. However, as long as it is used correctly, TCM can achieve good therapeutic results.
Let's talk about this medical case first. Ms. Li, 32 years old, white-collar worker, usually has a lot of work pressure and life pressure. Half a year ago, she encountered a major event, and suddenly she was irritable, anxious, and stressed. Then there was a "buzzing" tinnitus, and the left ear was more pronounced than the right ear. She didn't care at first, thinking it would be fine after a while. Who knows that it is getting more and more serious, seriously affecting work and life.
She came to see me, and the main symptoms were tinnitus, occasional dizziness, dry stools, and some small fiery temper, but there were no obvious symptoms such as sores on the mouth and tongue and red yellow urine. I judged that this was a typical "heart and liver fire" caused by tinnitus.
What is "heart and liver fire"? Modern people are under great mental pressure, and it is easy to be irritable and impatient. If this is the case for a long time, it will spread to the liver, and the liver fire will also be strong. Over time, the fire of the heart and liver burns the body fluids, resulting in a loss of yin and jin in the liver and kidneys. As a result, symptoms such as tinnitus appear.
So I came up with the following formula:
Coptis chinensis 1.5 grams, 6 grams, cypress kernel 10 grams, danpi 6 grams, rehmania 15 grams, raw land 10 grams, wheat dong 10 grams, white grass root 10 grams, cork 6 grams, Zhimu 10 grams, digupi 10 grams, salvia 10 grams, fried jujube kernels 10 grams, dodder seeds 10 grams, raspberry 10 grams, mulberry seeds 10 grams, spirit magnet 30 grams, Lu Lutong 10 grams, stone calamus 10 grams. (One person, for reference only)
This recipe follows the medicine idea of Mr. Ganzu Wang, a master of traditional Chinese medicine: it not only relieves the fire of the heart and liver, but also nourishes the liver and kidneys, yin and jin, and is also equipped with some drugs that open the body and invigorate blood circulation. I have found in many years of medical practice that this combination works best.
After Ms. Li took three pairs of drugs in a row, the symptoms of tinnitus were significantly reduced, and the tinnitus basically disappeared after about 10 days. Later, she went to the hospital for an examination, and the doctors were surprised: "This kind of nerve-induced tinnitus is difficult to treat, why are you suddenly cured?"
Most of the tinnitus cases I encounter, especially those of young white-collar workers, are of this type. As long as you find the pathogenesis of "heart and liver fire" and treat it with my formula, it can often be effective within three pairs of medicines.
Of course, there are many types of tinnitus. The tinnitus caused by "kidney water not rising" that I talked about before also needs another treatment. Our traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to "adapting measures to the needs of the person", and we should give different prescriptions according to the physical characteristics and pathogenesis characteristics of each person. This reflects the individualized treatment idea of traditional Chinese medicine.
In short, many of the neurological tinnitus of modern people are related to excessive stress and irritability. My set of prescriptions can relieve the heart fire, nourish the liver and kidneys, open the nerves, and have a good effect on the treatment of such tinnitus. If you encounter neurological tinnitus, you may wish to try it.
I will also explain the medical cases of other types of tinnitus in a follow-up article. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment of tinnitus, as long as the pathogenesis is grasped, has a good effect. If you have other tinnitus problems, please feel free to communicate!
