Hello everyone! I am Dr. Tong, who has been in clinical practice for more than 50 years, and I have found that many post-80s and post-70s generations have gastroesophageal reflux.
The reason for this is actually because of the high pressure of modern people's life and work, and their irregular life, resulting in excessive emotions, anxiety and anger, depression and liver loss, and liver lossDepression and heat, heat moves to the gallbladder, the gallbladder loses its clearing, and the bile heat holds the stomach qi upward, then there are problems such as soreness and heartburn.
There was a patient in the outpatient clinic, Ms. Zhang, 45 years old, who was a high school physics teacher and a class teacher. I have a history of gastroesophageal reflux for 7-8 years, and I am usually busy with work, and acid reflux attacks or aggravation occur when I am angry.
In the past six months, she has had frequent soreness, and she has not improved after taking various lazole drugs, so she found me under the introduction of a friend, when she had a red tongue, a dark tongue, and a thin white moss.
Ms. Zhang said that she felt uncomfortable when she lay down at night, she always felt that the things in her stomach were reversed, and there was often a bitter and sour taste in her mouth, and she could barely sleep for a while when she sat and leaned against her, and even then she could only sleep for 3 hours at most a night, and her stomach refluxed during the day, which was very painful.
How to solve the root cause of acid reflux?
In fact, if you want to fundamentally solve acid reflux and heartburn, you need toClears liver and gallbladder depression, so that once the heat dissipates,When the liver and gallbladder qi are restored, the stomach qi naturally decreases, and the regurgitation does not occur again
Based on this, whenever I see heartburn, acid reflux or bitterness in my mouth, I will give priority to Xiao Chai Hu Tang.
Prescription: Empirical formula + Bupleurum chinensis, skullcap, ginseng, Banxia, boiled licorice, ginger, jujube seven flavor herbs.
After the second diagnosis, the acid reflux heartburn was reduced, and the prescription continued to eat for 14 days, and all the symptoms were subsided.
What is the truth in this?
Xiao Chai Hu Tang comes from "Treatise on Typhoid Fever", which treats symptoms such as "bitter mouth, dry throat, dizziness", "chest and flank bitterness, and silent desire to eat", which is also a common symptom of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease.
Fangzhong Bupleurum and Skullcap - clear the liver and gallbladder and depresse heat;
Banxia, skullcap - hard work and hard work, soothing the liver and stomach;
Codonopsis, licorice, ginger, jujube - Gu Fu Zhongqi.
In clinical practice, the specific application is often combined with green skin, shell or citrus aurantium, red peony, and white peony to strengthen the ability to soothe the liver and regulate qi.
When reflux symptoms are significant, more ginseng, grass, ginger, jujube to think of its temperature stagnation, is not conducive to the heat of the sparse. For the treatment of weak women, weak pulse, less tongue coating, and less yinjin, Artemisia annua is used instead of Bupleurum to prevent more "robbing the liver and yin", or abandon Xiao Chai Hu, and change to "mint, artemisia, loofah" with liver-thinning medicine, which is light and clear without hurting righteousness.
When reflux symptoms are not noticeableWhen there are qi deficiency symptoms such as pale tongue quality, less moss, and weak pulse, only the products of prince ginseng, yellow essence, white lentils, and atractylodes are selected to lightly replenish qi and yin, and Ganping nourishes the stomach, and rarely choose products that are sweet and warm and stomach-strengthening such as codonopsis and astragalus.
All right! Clinical symptoms also need to be added and subtracted dialectically, and do not blindly prescribe. I am Dr. Tong, who has been clinical for more than 50 years, and am good at various diseases such as gastroesophageal reflux, chronic gastritis, atrophic gastritis, etc., and I hope to do my best to help more people.
