When it comes to phlegm and dampness, many people will think of Erchen and Shenling Atractylodes, but there are many people who have bad results.
In fact, in my opinion, the best way to dissolve phlegm and dampness is to replenish qi!
Because Qi has the effect of promoting, it can push the excess water and dampness in the body to be excreted from the body, and if the body's Qi is insufficient, it will allow the water to accumulate in the body, and phlegm and dampness will be generated over time.
At this time, if you simply remove dampness and phlegm, if the problem of this qi is not solved, new phlegm and dampness will still be generated. Therefore, the best way to dissolve phlegm and dampness is to replenish qi!
So how do you do it? Actually, there are two main steps!
One is ventilation and the other is replenishment!
Why ventilation?
Because many people now have a depressed situation, such as always feeling bad mood, irritability, chest and flank swelling, easy insomnia, etc.
This is also directly related to our usual excessive stress, liver loss and drainage, liver qi stagnation, at this time there is no strength to promote the metabolism of water in the body, at this time it is easy to appear phlegm and dampness.
For example, I always feel tightness in my chest, phlegm in my throat, heavy head, dizziness, sleepiness, heavy limbs, poor appetite, and I always feel irritable, irritable, and swollen chest. It is necessary to soothe the liver and regulate qi, and combine phlegm and dampness.
You can refer to the addition and subtraction of Chai Hu Shu Liver Tang and Erchen Tang.
The second is to replenish qi, and there is also a part of the person because of qi deficiency, which causes qi to be unable to promote the operation of water and moisture.
Therefore, for this situation, it is generally manifested as always feeling that there is phlegm in the throat, phlegm can not be spit out, there is no strength in the body, shortness of breath, it is easy to feel chest tightness, lack of breath and lazy speech, like to be lazy, do not want to move, etc., at this time, it is mostly phlegm and dampness caused by qi and blood.
If you need to replenish qi, dissolve phlegm and dispel dampness, you can refer to the addition and subtraction of Sijunzi Tang Hejian Spleen and Dampness Removal Soup.
Therefore, don't feel that your phlegm is heavy, just use some medicine to clear phlegm and dampness, and first distinguish the syndrome clearly, what is the cause of the heavy phlegm and dampness.
