Many people think it is easy to maintain health: if you are weak, you will be nourished, and if there is fire in your body, you will clear away heat and detoxify. But now many people's physical condition is not simply weakness, or pure heat evil in the body, but mixed with excess and deficiency, or called upper heat and lower cold. My legs and feet are weak, my limbs are cold, my stool is shapeless, which seems to be spleen deficiency and yang deficiency, but I also have sore throat, which is always prone to oral ulcers, insomnia and irritability.

This situation, in fact, is what Chinese medicine calls upper heat and lower cold, which is caused by the incompatibility of water and fire.

Such people are more difficult to adjust. Simply strengthening the spleen and warming yang will lead to more serious problems of excessive internal heat. Simple heat-clearing and detoxification will lead to the aggravation of diarrhea, cold lower limbs and other problems.

Huangdi Neijing said: "Those who suffer from husband fever today are all typhoid fever and the like ... those who suffer from cold injury are also sick with heat."

The meaning of this sentence is that when the cold evil in the body is strong, it will repel the yang, leading to the yang floating up, which is mainly manifested in the yang floating on the upper part of people, prone to oral ulcers, irritability, insomnia and other seemingly angry symptoms.

The root of this situation lies in the disharmony between yin and yang, and the qi of yin and yang does not meet and merge.

Simple heat-clearing and detoxification will aggravate the cold evil in the body; Simply warming yang and dispelling cold will lead to the phenomenon of getting angry more prominent.

Therefore, the key to adjust this problem is to let the yang hide downward and inward, and blend with the yin; At the same time, it is necessary to dispel too many cold pathogens and avoid rejecting Yang.

1, Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiang Decoction

The characteristic of this recipe is that it can not only clear up the upper coke heat, but also warm up the lower coke.

Bupleuri Radix, Scutellariae Radix and Trichosanthis Radix can clear away heat; Cinnamomum cassia twig and ginger warm and dispel cold, and help yang; Trichosanthes root produces fluid to quench thirst; Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch, Cinnamomum cassia twig and Zingiber officinale are combined to warm Yang Qi, and at the same time, two groups of drugs of clearing heat and warming and dispelling cold are reconciled, so that the body yin and Yang Qi meet and merge.

Of course, because everyone's physical condition is different, the dosage of each drug and whether other drugs need to be added are also different. After face-to-face consultation, professional Chinese medicine practitioners will formulate specific treatment plans.

2, cold and hot, appropriate moxibustion.

Moxibustion can not only take traditional Chinese medicine, but also warm the lower jiao, and at the same time, it has the functions of guiding the yang floating on the top downward, dispersing the cold inside, and fusing yin and yang.

Mainly through moxibustion on leg and foot points, it helps the Yang of the upper jiao to hide downward, thus achieving the purpose of igniting the fire and restoring the yuan. Commonly used acupoints are Zusanli, Yinling Spring, Sanyinjiao and Yongquan. The legs are warm, the meridians are opened, and the burning fire comes down.

It should be noted that the Yongquan point of Zuxin should be placed in the last moxibustion, which is indispensable, so as to completely complete the process of "tempering and returning to yuan".

In addition, it is suggested to soak your feet with boiling water of Artemisia argyi before moxibustion, and it is better to rub your back with your hands while soaking your feet. After soaking, rub the Yongquan point on the sole of the foot, which can not only nourish kidney water, but also replenish yang.
