Tongue diagnosis is a very important point for Chinese medicine doctors to see a doctor, today I will share 3 abnormal tongue signs, and I usually pay attention to them!
First of all, let's understand the healthy tongue image:
The tongue is soft, flexible, uniform reddish, and the moss is thin, not sticky or greasy.
So, let's share the first abnormal tongue "pale tongue".
The appearance of this kind of tongue is mostly due to the lack of yang energy in the body, the lack of power to push the blood, and the inability to fully nourish the tongue, so the tongue will be pale than the normal tongue, and it is more common in the deficiency of qi and blood.
In this case, you can refer to the Qi and Blood Activating Soup to replenish qi and nourish blood, and the main ingredients are astragalus, jujube, and maltose.
The second type of abnormal tongue is the "greasy tongue".
The thick and greasy tongue coating indicates that the moisture in the body is already relatively heavy, wet and sticky, turbid, and for a long time, it is easy to cause various chronic diseases, such as thick blood lipids, blood vessel blockage, diabetes and so on.
The tongue coating is thick and greasy, which is mainly divided into two types: "yellow greasy moss" and "white greasy moss", "yellow greasy moss" represents "damp heat" in the body, and "white greasy moss" means "cold and dampness" in the body.
People with dampness and heat in the body, lotus leaves, radish, etc., strengthen the spleen and dispel dampness, eliminate food and regulate qi.
People who have cold and dampness in the body can refer to ginger, jujube, yam, tangerine peel, etc., to warm the spleen and dispel dampness.
The third type of abnormal tongue is the "bloody stasis tongue".
It is more common in people with ecchymosis, petechiae on the tongue, people with this kind of tongue image, usually feel soreness and stinging pain on the body, fatigue, forgetfulness, and after a long time, blocking blood vessels may cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, cerebral infarction and other diseases.
The "blood stasis" in the body can refer to the commonly used prescriptions in traditional Chinese medicine: Xuefu Zhuyu decoction, Chinese medicine hawthorn, peach kernel, safflower and so on.
