Gallstones have become a common disease in today's fast-paced society. Gallstones can cause biliary colic, and in severe cases, even the gallbladder needs to be removed.
In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine,Damp heat is an important factor in the development of gallstones.
In fact, the so-called damp heat connotation refers to the coexistence of damp and hot qi in the body at the same time, and the damp heat evil qi invades the internal organs, resulting in the internal knot of dampness and heat evil in the body, and the dysfunction of the internal organs. When the dampness and heat stop and stagnate in the gallbladder, it will affect the normal excretion of bile, so that the bile will concentrate and precipitate, and eventually evolve into stones.
In addition,Long-term poor diet, overwork, and poor moodand other factors, it will also affect the normal transport function of the spleen and stomach, resulting in abnormal water and moisture transport, and then the formation of gallstones.
For damp heat intrinsic gallstones, I suggest starting from clearing heat and dampness, soothing the liver and relieving gallbladder. Clinically, I usually use this addition and subtraction of Yinchenhao decoction. byArtemisia sinensis, citrus aurantium, rhubarb, bupleurum, poria cocos, gardenia, skullcap, honeysuckleCompose.
Skullcap can clear away heat and dampness, and at the same time, it can also relieve fire and detoxify; Gold and silver can clear away heat and detoxify; Artemisia sinensis and gardenia have the effect of clearing away heat and dampness. At the same time, Artemisia sinensis can also promote the secretion of bile, which can effectively ** jaundice caused by gallstones.
Rhubarb diarrhea can not only reduce the toxins in the body, but also can flow the toxins into the urine and excrete them from the body. Bupleurum and Citrus aurantium have the effect of soothing the liver and relieving depression, widening and regulating qi, which can help open the channel of qi machine delivery, and at the same time promote the flow of qi and blood, which can prevent dampness and heat from forming internal formations, and then form stones.
If the pain in the right upper abdomen is obvious, Yanhusuo and neem can be added to the formula; If nausea and vomiting are obvious, you can add ginger banxia and bamboo ru to the recipe.
Clinically, I use this recipe and try it out of a hundred ways. It can not only help patients relieve uncomfortable symptoms, eliminate stones in the body, but also prevent the regrowth of stones.
However, the specific medication needs to be carried out by the patient under the guidance of a professional doctorBecause each patient has different situations, accurate syndrome differentiation can better exert the effect.
For such patients, while receiving traditional Chinese medicine, they should also pay attention to adjusting their lifestyle and eating habits, so that they can get twice the result with half the effort.
