Gallstones are a common disease of the biliary tract system in modern times. Common procedures include surgery, such as cholecystectomy or cholelithotomy. In recent years, more and more patients are more inclined to choose the stone removal method of traditional Chinese medicine.
In my opinion, the reason why everyone chooses Chinese medicine is that Chinese medicine is the best gallstones, emphasizing the whole, which can not only discharge the stones, but also systematically regulate the function of the viscera for patients and reduce the risk of gallstones.
The best principles of Chinese medicine.
We generally follow the following principles of gallstones in Chinese medicine:
1.Draining the liver and relieving gallbladder and regulating qi: gallstones are generally closely related to liver stagnation and qi stagnation. When people have bad emotions such as anger, anger, and depression, it often leads to liver stagnation. As a result, patients often feel that there is a breath of air in their chest that is blocked there, which is very uncomfortable. This gas will form a blockage, block the gallbladder, and hinder the normal excretion of bile, and bile will accumulate in the gallbladder, and over time, it will evolve into gallstones.
Therefore, our traditional Chinese medicine will take the main principle of soothing the liver and relieving the gallbladder and regulating the qi as the main principles, so that the liver and gallbladder can be excreted normally and the bile can be excreted normally.
2.Clearing away heat and dampness, removing stasis and removing stones: Patients with gallstones often have dampness and heat in their bodies. Dampness and heat can easily lead to phlegm, dampness and blood stasis, and can also form stasis, making it difficult for bile to be excreted. In view of this phenomenon, the best of traditional Chinese medicine should focus on clearing away heat and dampness, removing blood stasis and removing stones.
By clearing away heat and dampness, it can eliminate the evil of dampness and heat and improve the internal environment. Then through the removal of blood stasis and stones, the stones in the body can be discharged.
3.Strengthen the spleen and stomach and regulate the fundamentals: The causes of phlegm and dampness are mostly related to the dysfunction of the spleen and stomach. Because the spleen is mainly transported, and the function of the spleen and stomach is impaired, the water and dampness transport is abnormal, and it is easy to stop phlegm and dampness, forming phlegm knots, and hindering the discharge of bile.
By strengthening the spleen and stomach, on the one hand, it can promote the transport of water and dampness, and discharge excess moisture from the body; On the other hand, the spleen and stomach are the foundation of nurture, and strengthening the spleen and stomach helps the biochemistry of qi and blood, and also helps to prevent the formation of stones.
