Speaking of allergic rhinitis, the attack is really uncomfortable, recently there was a patient affected by allergic rhinitis in the outpatient clinic, saying that every year when the season changes, the nose is easy to itch, crazy runny nose, sneezing, and most of them are clear water nasal discharge, and when it is serious, there will be headaches, every time as long as you take anti-allergic medicine will get better, but after stopping, it will recur.
Through further inspection, I observed that the patient's tongue was pale in color, white and greasy in tongue coating, poor mental state, and slippery left and right pulses. At the same time, there are cases where the urine is yellow, and the stool is sticky and easy to stick to the toilet.
So I prescribed ephedra, cinnamon branches, dried ginger, schisandra, banxia, asaroxin, astragalus, and boiled licorice to help him warm his lungs and drink, and the patient sighed after reading the recipe and said, isn't this the formula of Xiaoqinglong granules? I have drunk it a few times before, but it has no effect on me, can this really cure my allergic rhinitis? I said you just go back and try it.
Sure enough, after taking it for three days, the patient reported to me that the sneezing and runny nose had decreased, and the itchy nose had also improved.
I smiled, but it wasn't, because combined with the patient's symptoms and his allergic rhinitis for many years, it showed that the cold in his body was already very heavy, which hurt the lung yang.
The lungs are open to the nose, and the lung yang is insufficient, so when the temperature changes greatly during the change of season, it is easy to have colds, nasal congestion, sneezing, itchy nose and other conditions.
So I removed the white peony from the Xiaoqinglong soup, and then increased the amount of dried ginger and fine spice to dissipate cold and dampness, warm the lungs and drink, and at the same time added astragalus on the basis of this recipe to replenish lung qi, and at the same time raise yang and invigorate qi, and dispel cold and dampness. After taking the medicine for two courses, all the symptoms disappeared, and the patient said that all the uncomfortable symptoms were gone.
Therefore, TCM treatment still pays attention to dialectic, and dialectical correction can cure diseases. The article is only a personal opinion, if you need to take medicine, please use it under the guidance of a doctor.
