I often encounter such patients when I sit in the clinic, my hands and feet are cold, I am particularly afraid of cold, my waist and legs are sore, and I am obviously yang deficiency, but when I take the medicine to replenish yang, it is either a mouth ulcer or a bubble in the mouth, in fact, this is mostly caused by a mixture of cold and heat.
Today, Dr. Li will analyze the specific causes and how to effectively clear heat and warm yang according to the tongue images of two patients who have recently received patients.
First, let's look at the tongue of the first patient, which is typically hot and cold.
The tongue coating at the base of the tongue is white and greasy, indicating that the patient has kidney yang deficiency and heavy cold and dampness in the body. But at the same time, the front half of the tongue is red, indicating that the heart is more hot. Cracks in the middle of the tongue, weakness of the spleen and stomach in the middle of the tongue, phlegm and dampness trap the spleen, so that the heart fire and kidney water cannot be blended normally, resulting in heat at the top and cold at the bottom. At this time, it is obviously not feasible to only go to Wenyang, it will only aggravate the heart. The correct conditioning should first open up the spleen and stomach, and you can refer to the addition and subtraction of the fragrant sand Liujunzi Tang to lead the fire back to the source, so that the heart fire goes down to warm and replenish the kidney yang.
Next is the situation of spleen and kidney yang deficiency mixed with scorching dampness and heat.
The cracks between the tongue are long and deep, the tongue coating is thick and greasy, there is the problem of spleen and kidney yang deficiency, the tongue coating at the base of the tongue is thick and greasy, and the lower coke is damp and hot. This patient has frequent urination, urgency, yellow urine, difficult to thank for sexual intercourse, and is particularly afraid of cold in daily life, with heavy legs and fatigue.
In his case, due to the weakness of the yang energy in his body, a large amount of dampness accumulates under the body and turns into heat, forming damp heat. In terms of conditioning, it is necessary to replenish yang and clear away heat and dampness, otherwise the yang energy will aggravate the dampness and heat, and the upward movement of heat will easily make people get angry. You can refer to the Bazheng Sanhe Guifu Dihuang decoction plus and minus conditioning.
If you feel unwell, you must seek medical attention offline in time, and do not blindly use medicine. We'll see you next time.
