In daily life, there is a relatively common phenomenon, that is, numbness and tremor in the hands. In fact, there are many factors that cause numbness and tremor in the hands. So, the next thing to analyze is that numbness and tremor after organic diseases such as Parkinson have been excluded.
These trembling and numb hands have a deep understanding in Chinese medicine. Among them, tremor and numbness caused by liver and kidney yin deficiency are the most common.
Because the tremor and numbness of the limbs have always been attributed to wind evil in Chinese medicine. In the eyes of the ancients, the tremors and tremors of the limbs are caused by wind and evil.
There is a record in "Su Wen · Zhi Zhen Yao Da Lun": "All winds are dizzy, all belong to the liver".
The "drop" here refers to tremor. Our liver is the dirt of wind and wood. Therefore, there is a close relationship with Fengxie. This is also the origin of the term "liver wind". In the " Criterion for Treatment and Syndrome ", the tremor is classified as a "throttle". In general, there is an inevitable connection between Feng Xie and tremor.
How does "wind" blow in the body?
In fact, there is a very important factor in blowing up this "wind" in the body, that is, liver and kidney yin deficiency. And the reason is not difficult to understand, liver and kidney yin deficiency means that our body lacks the necessary water. It's like an oasis in nature lacks water and will eventually become a desert without grass. Therefore, without the shelter of trees, violent winds are bound to rise. Similarly, if we lack water in our body, violent winds will be violent, and wind evil will be endogenous. Therefore,We will have numbness and tremor in our limbs.
Chinese medicine often says that the liver governs ascending and taking the initiative. Deficiency of liver and kidney yin will cause water to not contain wood. Therefore, the uplifting nature will germinate, leading to disturbance of the wind and yang, tight pulse and loss of nutrition. And this process, we can also understand it as the yin does not submerge the yang, and the yang moves the wind.
How to deal with this problem?
Above we analyzed its etiology and pathogenesis. Limb tremor and numbness are mostly caused by liver and kidney yin deficiency. So when dealing with it, it can be divided into three steps.
The first step: The first thing to do is to nourish the yin of the liver and kidney. For example, rehmannia can add essence and marrow, nourish yin and nourish blood. Dogwood nourishes the liver and kidneys, astringent and solidifies. Generally speaking, the first step is mainly to nourish liver and kidney yin and blood, and it also has , spleen and stomach. Of course, the purpose of this is to change the internal environment of patients with yin deficiency.
The second step: In order to prevent excessive yin nourishment, to prevent greasy nourishment. Therefore, it is necessary to use Alisma , Poria , etc. to dilute the water, so as to achieve the effect of supplementing and not stagnating.
The third step: to supplement yang. Traditional Chinese medicine often says, "Those who are good at replenishing yin must seek yin from yang." Therefore, psoralen and walnut meat can be used to nourish kidney yang.
Which patients are suitable for this idea?
as mentioned above,Limb tremor and numbness caused by insufficient liver and kidney yin and blood. This is especially true for patients with more obvious symptoms when the hands are raised daily. It is also accompanied by other manifestations of liver and kidney deficiency , such as dizziness, blurred vision, etc. Generally speaking, the tongue is red with little or no coating.
Of course, it needs to be emphasized that this learning idea is mainly for the numbness and tremor of the limbs caused by the deficiency of liver and kidney yin. However, everyone needs to understand that the phenomenon that causes numbness and tremor of the limbs is not only the deficiency of liver and kidney yin. There are also factors such as hyperactivity of liver yang, internal disturbance of phlegm and heat, and deficiency of both qi and blood.
