This patient has a dull tongue, which is a sign of weak Qi and blood. It is difficult to walk with the left leg, unable to lift the left arm, and the grip strength of the left hand is reduced. These are all typical symptoms of Qi deficiency . Stringy and thin pulse is a symptom of Qi deficiency that cannot stimulate the pulse channels and phlegm and blood stasis in the pulse.
Qi is the leader of blood. If Qi is deficient, the blood will not be able to move forward with Qi, which will lead to blood stasis. Blood stasis lasts for a long time, and Qi cannot transport and transform body fluids, resulting in phlegm and dampness. Phlegm and blood stasis combine with each other and block the brain meridians, forming cerebral infarction.
So the cause of this patient is Qi deficiency and blood stasis , phlegm and blood stasis are mixed, and the root cause is Qi deficiency. In this case, it is necessary to replenish qi, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis , and reduce phlegm.
