[Committee Members’ Comments] Thyroid, breast nodules and uterine fibroids, three fruits on one vine

This problem often occurs in female outpatients

A thyroid nodule was found during a physical examination

There are also breast nodules

Most of these patients also have uterine fibroids

If in Western medicine

Although they are all gynecological endocrine diseases

But the correlation is not significant

But Chinese medicine doesn’t think so.

These three are just melons on a vine

Sometimes I am in the clinic

The patient's tongue is dark and has a greasy white coating.

It can be basically determined that there are thyroid or breast nodules

If the right cun pulse is floating, stringy and astringent

Basically thyroid nodules and lung nodules

Left Guan pulse stringy breast nodules

Left radial pulse deep and stringy uterine fibroids

Some patients don't believe it.

I did a color Doppler ultrasound and the results were basically consistent with the pulse diagnosis.

Originally, Chinese medicine pulse diagnosis cannot diagnose Western medicine diseases.

But the clinic time is long.

You have to use modern language to talk to patients about their illness.

Otherwise, you've been talking about qi, blood, yin and yang for a long time.

Finally, the patient said

Ah, doctor, what exactly is wrong with me?

I just talked about these three diseases.

They are all melons on the same vine

This vine is called liver depression and qi stagnation - phlegm and blood stasis

In fact, it should be two levels of problem

The first is liver depression and qi stagnation

This type of nodule population occurs

Mostly in patients with bad mood

They are in a state of tension, anxiety, stress and depression all year round.

What about emotions?

Release half and keep half

I also found a problem

These people have the habit of eating sweets or fried foods.

Especially when you are angry, you like to eat more.

This reminds me of Journey to the West.

The King of Zhuzi is ill

The Golden Saint was lost during the Dragon Boat Festival

Scare the monster

Then the rice dumpling remained in the stomach and the person became ill.

So the original text says

After the monkey took the medicine

Several buckets of dirty stuff were discharged

There is also the zongzi from the Dragon Boat Festival

···

What is this

Food obstruction caused by poor Qi flow

actually

This nodule or fibroid in women

There are also such factors

Eating when angry

Poor Qi flow in the body

Can't promote spleen and stomach movement

Digestion and absorption are poor

Then eat what you eat

It all turned into garbage

Stacked in the body

Just like the water flow in the river has slowed down

Sand, mud, and stones all stay at the bottom of the water.

The more it piles up, the heavier it gets.

So you see these three seemingly unrelated diseases

In fact, Chinese medicine believes that the internal factors are the same.

As for daily methods?

I will just mention a few

We can't just talk about the problem

No solution

Maintain a calm state of mind

Don't get so angry that you will hurt yourself. Many people get angry without thinking of the consequences and become hysterical. This actually does nothing but hurt others. This includes the way parents educate their children. Many people say, "I can't help it, I can't let it go." Then I will teach you a trick: take a 10-minute brisk walk after getting angry. That is, every time you get angry, don't do anything, just go out and take a 10-minute brisk walk to let the blood flow to your lower limbs. This is an effective way to relieve the pain. But you need willpower.

Don't eat too much when you're angry.

The worse your mood, the less you should eat. You must eat less, especially foods that are hard to digest. Don't just eat for the sake of temporary satisfaction. Remember, anyone can take care of you by your bedside, but you will be the one who suffers the pain.

Recommend 2 tea substitutes.

#1. Double flower tea: rose and albizzia. You can soak it in water in the office and add a piece of rock sugar. It has a certain preventive effect.

#2. Ganmai Rumeng Tea, 2 bags a day. It also has a certain effect.
