The second phase of Project Stellar
Contemporary medical technology is changing with each passing day, but the theories of traditional Chinese medicine are also deeply intelligent. Traditional Chinese medicine attaches great importance to visiting and observing the reaction of the body's internal organs and meridians to understand the health status of the body. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the human eye is interconnected with other internal organs, and through the changes in the eye, we can detect some potential health problems in advance, especially the possibility of cancer. Here are five signs of the eyes that will be highlighted so that we can be vigilant and precautionary in time.
First of all, there are red streaks on the whites of the eyes. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the whites of the eyes are the window to the liver and reflect the health of the liver. The liver is one of the important organs of the human body, and when there is an abnormality in the liver, red filamentous blood vessels appear in the whites of the eyes. Therefore, if we often find that we have red streaks in the whites of our eyes, we may wish to go to the hospital for a more comprehensive examination to rule out the possibility of liver disease.
Secondly, eyelid edema. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the eyelid is the reflection site of the main water of the kidney, and edema often indicates that there is a problem with the kidney function. The kidneys are important detoxification organs in the human body, excreting waste products and toxins from the body. If there is an abnormality in the kidneys, toxins cannot be excreted from the body properly, causing eyelid edema. Therefore, it is important for people with long-term eyelid edema to seek the help of TCM in time to find out the root cause of kidney problems.
Third, dry eyes. Dry eyes are a common symptom of more and more people in recent years, and traditional Chinese medicine believes that it is related to the exuberance of liver fire. People with strong liver fire are often irritable and irritable, with bitter mouth, dry eyes, red eye pain, and even blurred vision. Therefore, if you have the above symptoms, you may wish to seek the advice of Chinese medicine to regulate the liver through Chinese medicine to alleviate the problem of dry eyes.
Fourth, the white of the eyeballs turns yellow. Changes in the color of the eyeballs can reflect the health of organs throughout the body, with yellow being a typical manifestation of liver disease. The liver is an important detoxification organ in the body, and when there is a disease in the liver, it can lead to the appearance of jaundice. Jaundice can not only manifest itself on **, but sometimes also produce a noticeable yellow color on the eyeball. Therefore, regardless of whether there are obvious symptoms of jaundice or not, when we notice an abnormality in the color of the eyeball, we must seek medical attention in time.
Finally, melanin pigmentation. Melanin pigmentation is one of the most overlooked eye anomalies. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that melanin has a role in the body, but when too much melanin is deposited, it can cause problems. Melanosis can cause spots or clumps of melanin on the surface of the eyeball, which not only affects vision but can also be linked to liver and eye diseases. Therefore, if we find a problem with melanin deposition on the surface of the eyeball, we should go to the hospital in time for a check-up to look for potential health problems.
To sum up, the eyes, as a window to human health, can detect some potential health problems in advance by observing the changes in the eyes. However, it is important to note that the above signs are not 100% proof of cancer, but only remind us to pay attention to our health. If you have these conditions on a regular basis, you should seek medical attention promptly to rule out the possibility of other diseases. At the same time, eating a balanced diet, exercising moderately, and maintaining a happy mood are also important parts of maintaining health.
