Everyone knows that angry people are prone to nodules, and many people joke that nodules are "".
So is the nodule really a mass made of qi? In fact, traditional Chinese medicine believes that liver stagnation leads to qi stagnation, qi stagnation leads to blood stasis, phlegm turbidity and condensation, phlegm stasis and liver qi are intertwined, and the three work together to form nodules.
Before the dog days, when the yang energy spreads outward, the cold and evil spirits, phlegm and dampness in the body are the easiest to be driven out.
Today I will share with you 2 herbs: tangerine peel + prunella vulgaris, soaked in water and drunk every day, which can assist in dispersing knots.
Tangerine peel can not only regulate qi and strengthen the spleen, but also dry and damp phlegm, and remove bloating. It is very suitable for qi depression constitution and phlegm dampness constitution.
Prunella vulgaris clears away heat and fire, disperses knots and reduces swelling, and the combination of the two is especially effective for nodules formed due to phlegm-dampness blockage.
Just like this patient, Mr. Chen, who was 3 years old, felt a lump on his neck, the texture was hard, it was not painful to press, and he swallowed up and down, and went to check and found a thyroid nodule.
At that time, the doctor's advice was to have regular physical examinations and observation. Mr. Chen is afraid that he will grow bigger and bigger, and he can't take anything seriously every day.
Later, I left a message asking me, "Can't you ignore it?" Can Chinese medicine become smaller? ”
"Of course you can't ignore it, don't ignore any disease, I'll prescribe some medicine, you stick to drinking it for a while, it will be fine, you must believe in yourself and calm down"
I also looked at his tongue coating, the tongue coating was white and greasy, and the tongue quality was light, and further questioning learned that he usually had a bad appetite and felt tired when he didn't do anything.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that this is actually the fault of phlegm, which is not the phlegm that we often say can be spit out in the throat and eyes, but the product of the accumulation of fluid in the body that cannot be transported.
So it was given tangerine peel with prunella vulgaris, plus drugs to invigorate blood and remove blood stasis.
As a result, after drinking for a while, the nodule was really small on the second examination. Follow-up discontinuation of the drug and regular observation.
Mr. Chen said that he was in a happy mood and had a good mind, the feeling of fatigue disappeared, and his appetite increased greatly.
In fact, for this kind of nodules, lumps, and cysts, as long as they are not very large, TCM conditioning is very good to dissipate, and there is no need for surgery.
These are nothing more than phlegm and dampness produced in the body, which do not function properly to where they should go, and come together to form a lump.
