【Fan Help】
Fan Mr. Jiang, 50 years old, has been suffering from poor urination for 10 years, but the problem suddenly worsened three months ago.
1. Prostate enlargement such as eggs, difficulty urinating, dripping out
2. The urge to urinate is frequent, but nothing can be peed out when you go to the toilet
3. Frequent cough and phlegm in the throat (both yellow and white)
4. Slippery pulse, depression in front of the tongue (the front of the tongue belongs to the cardiopulmonary area)
Medicinal ancestral prescription [diuretic drink], after 1 course of treatment, cough and asthma were reduced, the urine output of a single urine increased greatly, and the symptoms were greatly reduced after more than a month, and life basically returned to normal.
The four diagnoses were combined to comprehensively diagnose Mr. Jiang's problems, which mainly appeared in the lungs.
Why?
In TCM philosophy, the lungs are the source of water, while the bladder is the source of water. Insufficient lung qi, obstruction of rapid descent and poor waterways can easily affect the function of urinating, resulting in a decrease in urine output, or even inability to urinate.
Here, the lungs are like a faucet, the top can't be unscrewed, it's blocked by wet phlegm, how can there be water flowing out below?
The raw astragalus and almonds in [Diuretic Drink] are specialized in "water".
1. Raw astragalus: good at replenishing qi and raising qi, qi is sufficient, the kidney's gasification ability is strong, and urine can be effectively discharged, which is equivalent to turning on the switch of the faucet.
2. Almonds: All kernels are lowered, so (almonds) are used to reduce qi, and when the qi falls, the phlegm is eliminated and stopped, which is equivalent to emptying the waste in the water pipe and increasing the speed of water flow.
Of course, it's not enough to just replenish the air, the flow of water also needs a little pressure to push.
So I added Poria cocos and Sichuan hyssop to infiltrate the water, and safflower and peach kernels dissolved stasis and dispersed knots.
After the first course of treatment, Mr. Jiang reported that the phlegm in his throat was much less, and his urination condition had improved greatly, but he still felt tired easily. During the second consultation, I added Codonopsis and yam to enhance the effect of tonifying lung qi.
After 1 month, Mr. Jiang reported that his symptoms had basically disappeared completely, and his urine had returned to normal.
