Disease comes from the blood, and blood stasis is caused by all diseases.
Many women start to develop spots on their faces when they are in their thirties and forties. There are also some elderly people who have not only dark spots on their faces, but also have problems such as hypertension and coronary heart disease . In fact, this is because there is blood stasis in the body and blood vessels are not smooth.
Hello everyone, I am Dr. Cui of Chinese medicine. Today I will share with you what blood stasis is inside the body, what is the tongue like, and how to regulate the blood stasis constitution.
First of all, what is blood stasis constitution? Blood stasis constitution refers to the physical condition that has a potential tendency for poor blood circulation or a pathological basis for internal blood stasis and shows a series of external signs.
What are the external signs? It means that the complexion is usually dark, the skin is dark or pigmented, and it is prone to ecchymosis, prone to pain, and dull or purple lips. Or they have dark circles, dark nose, easy hair falls off, dry skin, and more dysmenorrhea in girls, or more blood clots in their menstrual blood, or their menstrual color is purple and black, melancholy, or tend to bleeding, and vomit blood.
Let’s look at a group of tongue images with blood stasis constitution.
The first picture is a tongue with pectoris. There are not many pectoris at this time, which means that the person has slight blood congestion in his body. Let’s look at his tongue. His tongue is covered with water and dampness, and the sides of his tongue are fat and swollen, which means that the person has liver qi not being distracted. liver qi is stagnant. In other words, this person may often feel sulky and have bad mood, which will lead to discomfort in the liver qi. The liver controls the qi movement of the whole body. As long as the mood fluctuates, getting angry or sulky will cause disorder in the qi movement of the whole body. Qi stagnation will lead to blood stasis. The qi has stopped there, and no matter how much qi you can replenish.
Many women have breast diseases, and have uterine diseases, which has a lot to do with qi stagnation and blood stasis. Let’s look at his tongue again. The tongue is covered with water and dampness. Dampness is a kind of yin evil that will hinder the circulation of qi and blood. If dampness is too long, blood stasis will inevitably occur. When cold evil invades and entrees on a certain part of our body, blood stasis will gradually form. In this era, due to the existence of refrigerators and air conditioners, we have too many opportunities to suffer from cold. Drinking cold drinks for a long time, eating a lot of fruit and milk, taking antibiotics at any time, taking too many heat-clearing and detoxifying medicines, wearing overly exposed clothes, etc., all give the best chance of cold evil invasion. When the blood is warm, it will flow, and when it encounters cold, it will condense. If you suffer from cold for a long time, your qi and blood will become stagnant, which will lead to blood stasis.
This is the first tongue image. Let’s look at the second one. There are obvious tooth marks on both sides of the tongue. This means that this person has qi deficiency and . People with qi deficiency will inevitably have blood stasis. We can see obvious pepsy on both sides of his tongue at the tip of his tongue. So why does it mean that qi deficiency will lead to blood stasis?
Because blood must be driven by qi, qi is the commanding blood. If there is insufficient qi, the blood cannot be run smoothly. This is like The water in of the Yellow River flows slowly and slowly, and finally stagnates, and finally forms blood stasis.
Next, let’s look at the third picture, this is more serious, and large pieces of ecchymosis have formed, which means that the body has severe blood congestion. Let’s look at the sublingual veins.
The fourth picture, this is the condition of blood stasis in the body. You can press your tongue against your palate, look in front of the mirror or take a picture on your phone.
Normal sublingual veins are 2.5 mm wide, 3/5 in length, no mesh, dark red. Abnormal sublingual veins are sublingual varicocele, thick and long, and are mesh-like and purple-dark.
You can take a look at your sublingual veins. See if there are any of these situations in the following pictures. If so, you should pay attention. Blood congestion is very harmful. It can cause cancer, coronary heart disease, cerebral infarction, , skin, memory, and sleep.
So don’t wait until the harm of blood stasis is fully exploded before you remember to regulate it.
What should I do if my ecchymnia, stasis, and sublingual varicose veins appear? Like many elderly people nowadays, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases , they will drink some Panax notoginseng powder American ginseng Salvia miltiorrhiza.Panax notoginseng is warm in nature, American ginseng is cool in nature, and Salvia miltiorrhiza is slightly cold in nature. After this combination, it can promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis without damaging qi and blood. People with blood stasis can eat it.
