Symptoms of liver disease and Five Elements Theory Does practicing Qigong help liver disease? -Liver disease, especially hepatitis B, is a chronic disease that cannot be cured by current medical treatment. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, patients with liver disease are depressed and irritable because of poor liver meridian. Diseases afflict unfortunate patients all the time, and there will be a splitting headache and slight fever due to excessive liver fire, all of which are due to disturbing the platform. In severe cases, it will lead to insomnia. Adding coptis root is really bitter! What's more, it leads to kidney deficiency and urinary crisis. Five elements theory of Taoism in the motherland: "aquatic wood", kidney belongs to water, liver belongs to wood, and kidney gives birth to liver in the five elements theory. However, if the liver is abnormal, excessive liver fire will in turn "insult" the kidney water. Therefore, patients with liver disease have symptoms of kidney deficiency and urgency, indicating that they are very ill. As a patient with liver disease, we should pay attention to spring and autumn in a year. In the theory of five elements, spring belongs to wood, autumn belongs to gold, corresponding to human liver belongs to wood and lung belongs to gold. Originally, spring belongs to wood, which is beneficial to the liver. However, in spring, everything is full of vitality, and so is the virus. Therefore, there are many and repeated liver diseases in spring. Autumn belongs to gold, "Jin Kemu", in other words, autumn hurts the liver. This determines that this spring and autumn season is a frequent period of liver disease.
