Since the "Neijing", Chinese medicine has had an in-depth understanding and elaboration of the paralysis syndrome. In Su Wen. In the "Theory of Paralysis", the sages of Chinese medicine clearly pointed out that "the three qi of wind, cold and dampness are mixed, and they are combined into paralysis", which not only reveals the ** of paralysis syndrome, but also accurately defines its definition. This indicates that the paralysis syndrome is caused by the interweaving of wind, cold, and dampness into the human body, resulting in poor flow of qi and blood, and blockage of the meridians. In addition to an in-depth understanding of the ** and definition of paralysis syndrome, there is also a detailed classification of various paralysis diseases in the "Neijing". These classifications include a variety of compound paralysis names such as line paralysis, paralysis, pain paralysis, and pentagonal paralysis. These classifications are mainly divided according to the symptoms and pathological characteristics of the paralysis syndrome, covering various pain or paralysis symptoms caused by the blockage of qi and blood in the meridians. The symptoms of paralysis syndrome are varied, but the main feature is joint and skin pain. This pain may manifest as wandering, heaviness, numbness, soreness, etc. Any disease with such symptoms can be called paralysis. This includes not only rheumatism, calendars, heat paralysis, gout, white tiger festivals, crane knee wind, etc., as well as rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, bone hyperplasia, osteoporosis, etc., which are called in Western medicine. To sum up, TCM has a long history of understanding of paralysis syndrome and has a profound theoretical foundation. Since the beginning of the Neijing, the study of paralysis syndrome in traditional Chinese medicine has been continuously deepened, providing valuable theoretical guidance and practical experience for later generations of doctors.
In the two books "Treatise on Typhoid Fever" and "Jin Kui Yaolu", there are many discussions and treatments about paralysis syndrome, which not only include the causes and more importantly of the six meridians.
In the process of long-term study of the "Treatise on Typhoid Fever", we can find that the differentiation of the six meridians does not only refer to the meridians, but also has a close relationship with the differentiation of the eight outlines. The Six Classics are stereotyped, while the Eight Outlines are more abstract. The six meridians distinguish the position of the disease, and the eight outlines distinguish the disease. For example, Sun Disease and Shaoyin Disease are Epi-Yang and Epi-Yin Syndrome, respectively, Yangming Disease and Taiyin Disease are Liyang Pattern and Liyin Syndrome, respectively, Shaoyang Disease is half-surface and half-mile Yang Syndrome, and Syncope Yin Disease is half-superficial and half-mile Yin.
In the specific analysis of paralysis, we can start from the relevant articles in the "Treatise on Typhoid Fever" and the "Jin Kui Yaolu"**. For example, Articles 1, 35, and 387 of the Treatise on Typhoid Fever and the Golden Essentials. Articles 20 and 21 of the "Identification and Treatment of Spasmodic Dampness and Drinking Disease Pulse Syndrome", etc., mostly refer to the yang pattern of paralysis on the surface, that is, sun disease. Articles 174 and 316 of the "Treatise on Typhoid Fever" and "The Golden Essentials". Article 8 of "Distinguishing the Pulse Pattern and Treatment of Stroke Syndrome", mostly refers to the yin pattern of paralysis on the surface, that is, less yin disease.
In addition to this, there are different types such as Sun Yang Ming Syndrome and Sun Deficiency Yang Syndrome. Combined with clinical practice, the lack of yin disease with paralysis syndrome on the surface is more common, followed by the sun disease with paralysis syndrome on the surface. Others, such as Shaoyang, Yangming, Taiyin, Syncope Yin and Sun Yang Ming Syndrome, Sun Oligo-Yang Syndrome, etc., are relatively rare.
Through in-depth research and understanding of the theory of the six meridians in the "Treatise on Typhoid Fever", we can better guide clinical practice and provide patients with more accurate solutions.
In clinical practice, the differentiation of the six meridians is the foundation, but the differentiation of the pattern is the core. Only by correctly distinguishing the syndrome can the clinical efficacy be ensured. For the ** of paralysis syndrome, six major square syndromes have been summarized.
The main symptoms are strong pain in the neck's back, fever and chills, no sweating and bad wind, backache and weight, pale moss, and smooth pulse.
The main symptoms are joint pain all over the body, fever in the afternoon, weight or swollen joints of the limbs, mouth or sticky, white and greasy tongue, and smooth pulse.
The main symptoms of Guizhi Peony Medicine Zhimu Tang Formula are pain in the joints of the whole body, swelling of the limbs or knee joints, stiffness or deformation of the limbs and knuckle joints, dizziness and shortness of breath, paleness, and stringy pulses.
The main symptoms of Guizhi Jialing Surgery with Tang Fang are waist, knee and elbow joint pain, strong head pain or palpitations or stomach pain, sweating and bad wind, cold limbs, neutral mouth, white tongue and stringy pulse.
The main symptoms of Guizhi plus Astragalus Decoction are long-term joint pain, obvious sweating and bad wind, cold or hot joints of the limbs or numbness of the limbs, thin and white moss, and slow pulse.
The main symptoms are waist and hips, neck and back pain, knee weakness, palpitations, heart fullness, self-sweating night sweats or swelling of the lower limbs, white tongue, and thin pulse.
These six major syndromes are the common types of paralysis syndrome, and the correct identification and application of these syndromes is very important to improve the effectiveness of paralysis syndrome.
As usual for chronic joint pain with cold syndrome, use more Guizhi Jialing Shu Attached Soup, Pueraria Root and Lingshu Attached Soup, Guizhi Peony Zhimu Soup, Guizhi Jiaaconite Soup, Xiao Xu Life Soup, Ephedra Aconite Fine Spicy Soup, Ephedra Aconite Licorice Soup, etc.**;For acute rheumatic joint pain with surface heat syndrome, Pueraria Gen Jiashu decoction, Ephedra Jiashu decoction, Ma Xing Coix decoction, Guizhi plus Astragalus decoction, etc. are mostly used**.
