Today's text, I want to talk to you about Buyang and Wu Tang.
This is a very powerful and practical prescription. In the history of the Chinese fighting against diseases for thousands of years, this prescription is like a flag, always shining fiercely in the sky.
Now, we carefully observe the prescriptions used by patients in the medical case. You will find that it is based on Buyang Huanwu Decoction, adding Achyranthes , Acorus , gall star, and Salvia . Why is
used like this? Let's analyze it bit by bit.
Look, this patient, when he was in the hospital, his pulse was stringy and slippery, his moss was greasy, and there was always phlegm in his throat. What does this mean? Is phlegm and turbidity accumulated in it? The patient is a body with excessive phlegm.
is also due to phlegm and dampness and poor qi, so the patient repeatedly feels chest tightness and .
At the same time, you can look at the patient's tongue. What does purple spots mean? It means blood stasis.
At this point, we understand that patients now have phlegm and stasis. There is not only phlegm and turbidity in the body, but also blood stasis blocks the meridians.
So, what exactly is the reason that causes the patient to have phlegm and stasis?
Here, we must consider one factor, that is, Qi deficiency . Qi is the commanding master of blood, and the distribution of Qi is the driving force for the distribution of body fluids. Therefore, when qi is weak, blood cannot work and blood stasis is formed. Illegal distribution of body fluids will lead to phlegm and turbidity.
Maybe you will ask, the characteristics of qi deficiency in patients in medical cases are not significant, why do they say that it must be qi deficiency?
, this starts with the patient's partiality. Have you found that the patient with hemiplegia in stroke has weak body on the affected side. In our traditional Chinese medicine, we need to consider a possibility, which is caused by qi deficiency. Of course, this matter is not absolute. However, clinical observations show that there are indeed many such patients. People of this type of people often have thin and astringent pulses, or have smooth pulses, and their tongue coating is neither yellow nor dry, but they tend to be white or thin and white, and their tongue is light.
It can be said that the patients in the above medical case, combined with the tongue and pulse and systemic characteristics, can basically be broken into qi deficiency and blood stasis , and also have phlegm and dampness blocking the meridians. Because his tongue is like , it is thin and greasy, neither yellow nor dry, and the tongue is not red, and there is no problem of internal accumulation of phlegm and heat and excessive liver yang, so it can be regarded as a result of qi deficiency and blood stasis. What should I do at this time of
? It will benefit qi and promote blood circulation, and also eliminate phlegm and open orifices. In actual combat, doctors also do the same. Buyang Huanwu Decoction is used to replenish qi, Angelica , Red Peony , Safflower , Peach kernel , Chuanxiong , Chuanxiong are used to promote blood circulation. Then, use bile star and calamus to resolve phlegm and open orifices. If Salvia miltiorrhiza continues to promote blood circulation and nourish blood, and calm the patient's mind. If you use Achyranthesopia, it can help you unblock the meridians and activate the meridians.
This is the basic idea of using medicine.
Readers, through this medical case, you should have a profound understanding of the key points and ideas of Buyang Huanwu Decoction. It is indeed a good recipe for improving stroke hemiplegia, provided that it is used accurately. What it deals with must be qi deficiency and blood stasis. If you have severe hypertension , and the symptoms are yin deficiency and yang hypertension , yin deficiency and blood heat, then you cannot use it. Its main symptoms, again, are hemiplegia , crooked mouth and eyes, poor language, salivation in the corners of the mouth, thin and slow pulse, pale tongue and white coating, frequent urination or incontinence.
In short, Buyang Huanwu Decoction is worth remembering. Especially at present, when cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are at a high incidence, we should understand these ancient and practical prescriptions. For non-professional readers, you should learn from and apply it under the guidance of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. Professional readers, we have to think about it repeatedly. It can be said that in the rehabilitation treatment of sequelae of cerebral stroke, Buyang Huanwu Decoction still plays a very important role and often brings unexpected surprises.
is OK. I'll just say so much about this. Thank you for reading.
