Chapter 133 Cold-Dampness Bi-Obstruction Type (2 / 2)



Jingguang pinched his arm, which was a little swollen, and tested his grip strength, which was already beginning to have difficulty compared to a normal person.

"Afraid of cold and like heat?"

"Now that you mention it, I've been feeling a little cold lately. I thought it was because the weather this year is colder than in previous years."

The more certain Yukimura Seiichi was about Jingmitsu's problem, the brighter the eyes of the others became.

This person is really capable!

Then, there must be nothing wrong with what he said!

Jingguang looked at Yukimura's expression.

His face was a little pale.

"Stick out your tongue, let me see it."

"???"

Yukimura Seiichi was stunned, then hesitantly opened his mouth.

Jingguang took out a tongue depressor and cotton swab from his bag and carefully examined it with a flashlight: the tongue was pale, with a greasy white coating.

Moreover, the pulse at the wrist is weak.

"It's a paralysis caused by cold and dampness."

There are four types of impotence:

They are: wind-cold blocking the meridians type, cold-dampness blocking the meridians type, cold-dampness infiltrating the governor vessel type, and deficiency of essence and qi type.

Among them, the main symptoms of cold-dampness arthralgia type are as follows:

The limbs are flaccid and cannot be used, they are cold and feel cold to the touch, they are swollen and sore, the pain is relieved by heat, there is fear of cold and no sweating, the tongue is pale, the tongue coating is white and greasy, and the pulse is deep and weak.

Yukimura Seiichi didn't understand but asked, his attitude was very humble, he was really curious, "But the doctor said I have radiculitis?"

"It's acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculitis."

Jing Guang emphasized, "There are many types of radiculitis, which is referred to as GBS in Western medicine. Most patients have a history of infection before the onset of the disease, which may be related to autoimmunity. Radiculitis includes multiple radiculitis, such as yours, and single radiculitis, etc."

"Acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculitis, also known as Guillain-Barré syndrome, is caused by an immune response and results in decreased muscle strength and decreased sensation in the limbs. Laboratory tests and cerebrospinal fluid tests may show protein cell separation."

"There is no name for this disease in traditional Chinese medicine, but these symptoms are quite similar to those recorded in the book "Yi Zong Must Read: Wei", so the traditional Chinese medicine community calls it fistula syndrome. GBS can occur in all seasons, but it is more common in winter and summer."

Yukimura Seiichi understood, "So that's how it is."

In other words, it's just a different way of addressing.

The relevant cases in Jingguang's mind were spinning wildly.

In the hot summer, the sweat pores open, sweat is lost, and the vital energy is deficient inside the body. In addition, due to factors such as sleeping in the open air, sleeping in the wind, working in the rain, and entering the water after sweating, wind, cold and dampness take advantage of the opportunity to enter the body.

Winter is cold or the climate changes suddenly. If you are not careful, you may get hurt by the cold wind. Therefore, winter and summer are the peak seasons for this disease.

Coldness solidifies, while dampness sticks. When coldness and dampness invade the body, Yang Qi is blocked, Qi and blood flow stagnates, and the tendons and veins of the limbs lose warmth and nourishment, resulting in fistulas.

In the early stage of impotence, it is mainly caused by external evil that leads to poor circulation of qi and blood, and inability to warm and nourish the tendons and veins. In the later stage, it is caused by deficiency of liver and kidney essence, insufficient qi and blood, and malnutrition of tendons and veins.

Yukimura Seiichi's current condition urgently requires early treatment, but other things cannot be ignored. The liver, kidneys, spleen and stomach also need to be well protected.

The earlier the warming and dispersing cold and dampness drugs are used, the better the effect. Internal invasion of cold and dampness is often related to spleen and stomach weakness. If the spleen is not healthy, internal dampness will occur, and internal dampness will lead to external dampness. When the internal and external evils combine, the spleen will lose its function, the Yang Qi will be blocked and cold, and the muscles and bones will not be warmed and nourished, resulting in impotence. Dispelling dampness and promoting Yang will benefit the spleen and stomach's function, which implies that "only Yangming can be used to treat impotence".

The entire course of GBS is accompanied by soreness in the waist and knees or heaviness in the neck and back, which are mostly signs of kidney deficiency and marrow deficiency, and the kidneys cannot control the bones.

Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the body while eliminating the evil. In the late stage of the disease when the evil is gone and the body is deficient, we should focus on nourishing the liver and kidneys, and replenishing Qi and blood, in order to replenish kidney Qi, strengthen the Governor Vessel, increase Qi and blood, restore the three Yang meridians of the hands and feet to normal, warm and nourish the limbs, and eliminate all symptoms of paralysis.

However, what is needed now is to warm the cold and dispel dampness, eliminate evil and strengthen the body, and warm and nourish the five internal organs, which will be done in the later stage.
