In the rural ponds, there are such patches of swaying green, which look like water lilies under the leaves, there are fruits, inconspicuous, but known as the "nemesis of nodules". It grows in moist and warm water, and its fruit is round like a pomegranate on one side and pointed like a bird's beak on the other.
The reason why chicken head rice is known as the "nemesis of nodules" plays a positive role in the conditioning of nodule patients.
As I told you before, although there is no such thing as a thyroid nodule in Chinese medicine, it has been recorded since ancient times, and Chinese medicine classifies it as a "gall". Many people with thyroid nodules are neither painful nor nourishing, nor have any discomfort, in fact, this is the convergence of the body, so the mass in the body is actually a piece of "phlegm turbidity".
The spleen is the center of water metabolism and distribution in the body. If the spleen is deficient, the transport is abnormal, and the fluid accumulates into phlegm, which forms phlegm dampness. The so-called "spleen is the source of phlegm" came about.
What should we do at this time?
Let me share a case with you, and you will understand:
One night last winter, I finished my day's work and was sorting out my medical case. Suddenly, I heard someone knocking on the door, and when I opened it, I saw that it was a middle-aged man dressed simply.
He asked me a little nervously, "Doctor, can I still see a doctor?"
I wanted to answer him too late, but when I saw that his skin was slightly dark and his forehead was covered with sweat, I asked with concern: Hello, how can I help him?
He explained: I just want to buy some medicine for the treatment of thyroid nodules, the hospital is too expensive, and the doctor also recommended surgery, how much we can harvest in a year, so I want to find a Chinese medicine doctor to see.
Me: Can Chinese medicine really look at thyroid nodules, but everyone's physique is different, and it needs to be dialectic, you come in, I'll show you.
The patient is my father, who has had thyroid nodules for a long time, and has not improved much when he went to the hospital, and he has not enough money for surgery, so he can only prescribe medicine, and now the money is gone, and there are only more than 400 yuan left.
So I said, "If you can trust me, bring your father tomorrow, and I'll take a closer look at it."
Not long ago, the father and son came over again, and when they entered the door, they said, "Do you remember me?" After drinking the prescription you prescribed before, all the pimples on my father's body were gone, and the shocked color ultrasound doctor asked us where we were looking.
I said, "That's good."
He continued: Doctor, my father's nodule has been around for almost 10 years, I didn't care about it before, but then it grew bigger and bigger, and I was frightened when I checked it out, and I didn't suffer less, I didn't expect this recipe to be so magical, thank you so much, don't refuse this intention.
I waved my hand and said: I can't take it, it is the doctor's duty to cure the patient, not to reciprocate.
The medicines prescribed to his father that day were: sand kernels, gourds, spiral flowers, Chuanxiong, and melons. Why is it so open?
It turns out that the spleen is the source of phlegm, so it is necessary to dissolve phlegm, otherwise the garbage in the stomach cannot be discharged, and the spleen and stomach will always produce phlegm, resulting in phlegm dampness. Therefore, it is very important to regulate the garbage in the spleen and stomach.
How does Fang Zhong think about it?
Sand kernels, gourd seeds - warm and replenish the spleen and stomach, regulate the spleen, and promote its operation
Spiral Complex Flower - Regulates Qi and reduces fire, helps to remove garbage from the stomach to restore normal functioning.
Chuanqiong, melon - dissolve blood stasis, reduce phlegm, and eliminate knots.
Whenever I think about it alone, I always think of many similar cases, and I can't help but sigh in my heart, and I only hate that I don't have a greater ability to help more people.
In fact, I just want to help more patients, promote TCM more, and let more people understand and accept it. I feel that for patients, every doctor who truly cares about them is a light in their lives.
