Stomach bloating is a problem that many friends will experience. Stomach bloating can cause us to not want to eat, be unable to eat even if we want to, and feel restless. It may seem like a minor problem, but it also reflects our stomach problems and needs. If you adjust it in time, superficial gastritis, erosion or even atrophy may occur.
today I would like to share with you a case of adjusting gastric bloating - a brother Zhang came to me before. He said that in the past two months, he always felt bloated and felt like his stomach was cramped. He couldn't eat anything and always wanted to hiccups , always wanting to pass gas, and the stools are mostly watery, sticky and unpleasant.
I asked him: "Are you bloated before a meal or after a meal?"
He said: "It's mainly after a meal. After a few mouthfuls, I feel so bloated that I dare not eat. Sometimes I feel bloated even if I don't eat. "I feel bloated when I eat cold things."
I asked: "Do you feel bloated when you eat cold things?"
He said: "It's not that obvious when you eat cold things, but it's easy to feel bloated when you eat sweet things." "
I said you stick your tongue out and take a look.
Its tongue coating looks like this:
When I saw it, his tongue coating was greasy, slippery, and slightly yellow in the middle.
I asked him again: "Have you ever had hot hands and soles, sweating while sleeping, and being unable to sleep at night?"
He said, "Not at all!"
He said, "Sometimes your urine turns yellow, and when you sleep, I love to dream."
asked about other aspects, and Brother Zhang said that everything else was fine.
Based on the above tongue image of Brother Zhang, I differentiated his syndrome from internal organs. , I diagnosed him as spleen deficiency and excessive gastrointestinal qi.
Why do you say that? We see that the tongue coating is white and greasy, which means there is moisture, and there is a slippery texture, which means the moisture is very heavy.
Moreover, Brother Zhang also has a lot of loose stools, which verifies the judgment that is due to spleen deficiency and dampness in excess of .
Brother Zhang mainly suffers from bloating after meals, which is mainly empirical, because many people with deficiency of spleen and stomach will feel bloated when hungry.
Furthermore, many people dare not eat cold food. Eating cold food will cause gastrointestinal discomfort, bloating and diarrhea. This situation indicates that the spleen and stomach are weak and cold, which Brother Zhang still does not have.
There is another very important point. Many friends who have dampness and heavy will also have symptoms of yin deficiency and . If this kind of yin deficiency is not carefully diagnosed, it is easy to miss the diagnosis, resulting in poor results, so I asked Does he sweat during sleep, feel hot in the soles of his hands and feet, have difficulty falling asleep, and other symptoms of yin deficiency and hotness?
I made the following prescriptions for Brother Zhang:
Codonopsis pilosula Atractylodes Poria White lentils
Citrus aurantium Green bark of magnolia Woody scent
Amomum Patchouli Peilan Alisma
Licorice Salvia miltiorrhiza
From the analysis, Codonopsis pilosula, Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria cocos, and white lentils are all medicines that strengthen the spleen and replenish qi, and Brother Zhang has spleen deficiency and dampness, so Atractylodes, Poria, and white lentils all strengthen the spleen and remove dampness role.
Poria
Secondly, green bark, citrus aurantium, magnolia bark, and woody scent are added to promote qi and reduce swelling, remove dampness and reduce phlegm. These four herbs have a strong qi-promoting effect. Once the fu qi is opened, the fullness will naturally disappear. Eliminated, these four flavors treat the symptoms, while the first four treat the root cause. When used together, both symptoms and root causes can be considered.
Citrus aurantium
The third row: Amomum villosum, Patchouli, Peilan, and Alisma are all dehumidifiers. Amomum villosum is aromatic and dehumidifying. Patchouli and Perrin are all aromatic dehumidifiers. Alisma facilitates urination and removes dampness. Together with these four It plays a very good role in removing dampness. Brother Zhang's stomach bloating is related to moisture. If the moisture goes away, the fullness will naturally be reduced and subsided. Finally, add some salvia to activate blood circulation and promote qi, and add licorice to reconcile the medicines.
Huoxiang
Brother Zhang reported after a week that after a few days, his stomach was no longer bloated and he felt much more relaxed.
For the second time, on the basis of the original, I reduced the dosage of anti-bloating medicine and added a little bit of anti-dampness medicine to consolidate the effect, so as to avoid excessive circulation of qi and damaging the healthy energy. Brother Zhang’s stomach bloating problem, has been effectively improved.
