Shoulder coagulation: also known as shoulder periarthritis, shoulder air leakage and shoulder arthralgia, it belongs to scapulohumeral periarthritis (scapulohumeral periarthritis) in western medicine. It is a kind of limb joint pain disease characterized by long-term shoulder fixation pain and limited activity.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the disease is mainly caused by old age, deficiency of liver and kidney, deficiency of qi and blood, malnutrition of bones and muscles, long-term fatigue, and cold fascia on shoulders and backs. After a long time, the muscles and veins are connected and can't move. Therefore, deficiency of qi and blood, weakness of blood tendons are internal causes, and invasion of cold and dampness is external causes.
After middle age, people's yang is weak, healthy qi is gradually weakened, and the camp and health are out of balance, which makes the bones and muscles lose nutrients. When rheumatism and cold pathogens invade, it is easy to cause stagnation of qi and blood, persistent yang, and unreasonable veins, so this disease occurs.
Etiology of shoulder coagulation:
Periarthritis of shoulder (periarthritis of shoulder) is a degenerative inflammatory disease of shoulder joint capsule and soft tissue around joint. It belongs to the category of arthralgia syndrome. There are more women than men, mostly around 50 years old, so they are called "fifty shoulders".
Most of the reasons are due to the cold shoulder during sleep, causing local menstrual block. There are also injuries that damage local tissues and hinder the circulation of meridians and qi and blood, which induce this disease. Recurrent diseases are mostly caused by deficiency of kidney-qi, deficiency of both qi and blood, and obstruction of collaterals by cold and dampness.
Clinical manifestations:
A dull pain in the shoulder joint: sometimes it hurts like a knife, the day is light and the night is heavy, and sometimes I can wake up at night; In the morning
When getting up, the shoulder joint moves slightly, but the pain can be alleviated.
Shoulder joint movement disorder: "shoulder three signs" appear, that is, hands can't go over the head and can't touch shoulder blades and shoulders. The patient's undressing, combing hair and taking things are all affected, and the activities of upper limbs such as internal rotation and abduction are limited. With the development of the disease, the diseased tissues are adhered, the muscles are atrophied and the dysfunction is aggravated. Because of the obvious dysfunction of shoulder joint in the later stage, it is called shoulder coagulation.
Root cutting therapy for scapulohumeral periarthritis;
Acupoint selection method: This syndrome involves a wide range of tissues and all the tissues around the shoulder joint. So there are many acupoints to choose from, but according to my clinical experience, Ashi point is the main choice.
Needle picking method: mainly picking method and picking method. Cupping can be added in acute stage, and moxibustion or tendon-picking can be added in chronic stage.
Course of treatment and curative effect: every 1~3 days 1 time,1time is a course of treatment. The early and mid-term curative effect of this disease is quite satisfactory, and it can be effective after 1-2 courses of treatment. If you persist, especially when there is obvious muscle atrophy, the effect will be worse and the effect will be slower, but if you can persist in treatment, the disease can still be cured.
When the pain symptoms are eliminated, the shoulder joint activity is blocked and muscle atrophy can gradually recover after exercise.
"Root-cutting" is such a traditional Chinese medicine treatment skill that can be called "the quintessence of China".
