The weather changes will indeed cause physical discomfort, especially for patients with coronary heart disease and . The condition of chest tightness and chest pain may also be exacerbated!
When I replied to a private message some time ago, someone asked me, "Dr. Su, it seems that every time the weather is cold, I feel very uncomfortable. Sometimes it hurts so I will take some quick-acting heart-saving pills or nitroglycerin , and it will be better after eating it!"
But, this is not a solution, the fundamental problem has not been solved, and the disease cannot be allowed to continue, right?
Coronary heart disease is not uncommon and is quite common among the elderly. In fact, according to pathological phenomena, it is heart ischemia caused by blood vessel blockage or stenosis.
In traditional Chinese medicine, it will hurt if it doesn’t make sense. In the concept of traditional Chinese medicine, coronary heart disease belongs to the category of chest abdomen, palpitations, , etc., which is closely related to phlegm, blood stasis, and insufficient qi and blood. Because blood vessels are blocked, the qi and blood in the body are not smooth, and it is easy to hurt if it is blocked.
Traditional medicine roughly divides coronary heart disease into four types:
1. Blood stasis blocks the coronary artery.
Blood stasis is formed by blood that does not flow in the body. After the blood stasis is formed, it adheres to the blood vessel wall, hinders the circulation of blood, leads to ischemia and hypoxia in the heart, and induces coronary heart disease. This is what Western medicine calls plaques. Patients of
need to use the method of activate blood and remove blood stasis to treat it. Clinically, Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction can be used to add or subtract Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction to clear blood vessels.
2. The phlegm blocks the coronary artery.
In fact, this is like the mud and sand in the river. More mud and sand accumulates, hindering the circulation of the river. This is also the case with phlegm and turbidity, which hinders the flow of blood.
This situation needs to be improved by resolving phlegm and unblocking the meridians.
3. Qi stagnation leads to coronary artery obstruction.
Qi is the mother of blood circulation. If there is insufficient Qi, then the blood will not be able to flow, like a calm lake. When qi moves, blood flows, and when qi stagnates, blood stagnates.
So what causes qi stagnation?
The root cause is the liver, liver depression and qi stagnation. Patients with coronary heart disease often have a lot of emotional fluctuations and are also in a hurry to do things. Therefore, the patient's condition needs to use the method of relieving the liver and regulating qi.
4. Cold condensation causes coronary artery obstruction. This is also the main situation of the above-mentioned patients.
When winter comes, many coronary heart disease is prone to attack. It is precisely because of the stagnation of cold evil that coronary artery will cause qi and blood stagnation, resulting in blood obstruction. Therefore, we often find that many patients with coronary heart disease have attacks in winter.
Patients like this often have weak yang energy and are more afraid of cold. You need to use prescriptions that replenish yang and replenish qi.
5. Coronary artery blockage caused by Qi deficiency . Qi deficiency leads to insufficient blood circulation, which leads to blood stasis and blockage of blood vessels, causing pain if blocked.
So both types of patients can use Yiqi Decoction to relieve it!
Group of recipes: Codonopsis pilosula, purple salvia miltiorrhiza , Ophiopogon japonicus, Schisandra chinensis, longan meat , turmeric , fried Yuanzhi , acorus , cypress lemon , kirikuri, saccharomycea , kirikuri, saccharomyceae , kuribata root, raw astragalus.
is more suitable for patients with shortness of scheming, chest tightness and hold back, premature beat, premature pain in the anterior heart, atrial fibrillation, , insomnia, pulse thorns, or thick and thin tongue.
Codonopsis pilosula, Salvia miltiorrhiza replenish qi promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis ; combined with Shengmaiyin and Astragalus, it can invigorate qi and strengthen the heart, improve the ability of qi and blood circulation, relieve palpitations and chest tightness; fried Yuanzhi and calamus to remove blood stasis, and specialize in treating heartache ; combined with longan meat and cypress genus, strengthen the spleen and calm the heart; Pueraria root and Salvia miltiorrhiza dilate the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular system, so that qi and blood can run smoothly, and improve blood circulation .
It should be noted that patients with coronary heart disease often contain more than one of the symptoms, just like your qi stagnation, which will inevitably lead to blood stasis. Therefore, the specific prescription needs to be added and subtracted according to personal circumstances, and there is no common dosage.
In addition, in winter, coronary heart disease occurs more often, and patients should pay attention to taking good care of them.
