Qi stagnation constitution is the most common constitution of white-collar workers, administrative staff and other people with high work pressure, especially women. Physical manifestation of qi stagnation 1, shape: mostly thin; Depressed and unhappy; If the complexion is yellow and dull, the complexion will become blue and yellow; It is often lamented that the Chinese medicine is called Shan Taixi (generally, you can take Xiaoyao pills at this time to soothe the liver and regulate qi). Sigh is stagnation of qi. If it is stagnant, she will feel bored and uncomfortable, and will unconsciously stretch her breath by sighing, so she often sighs. There will also be a sore throat, which Chinese medicine calls plum-nuclear gas. I always feel that there is a foreign body in my throat and I can't spit it out. There is obvious breast swelling pain and abdominal pain before menstruation. This situation is obvious, suggesting that she may have a depressed constitution and cannot stagnate. Qi-depression constitution, because the Qi of Yin and Yang doesn't work well, so she can't sleep well either. The stool is mostly dry, thinking that the internal gas is stagnant, and the stool will stay in the intestine for a long time and absorb more water, so it is dry. 2. God: Most of them are introverted. There are two situations of introversion: one is true introversion, inner stability, few words, and insensitive reaction to things; There is also a kind of introversion, which is not so much, but sophisticated, highly sensitive and introverted. This is very torturous, and such people are prone to suppress illness. This kind of person can't be regarded as mental illness or depression, but he will always show various symptoms from the body: making your skin worse, gastrointestinal problems, irregular menstruation, but I don't know that these symptoms are such a personality, which is suffocating. Introverted, taciturn, sensitive and calculating, such people are prone to stomach ulcers, menstrual diseases and tumors. This kind of people have poor tolerance for mental stimulation, often depressed, chest tightness and sighing. Cause of qi stagnation constitution: 1, congenital endowment. 2. Otawa's childhood experiences are related to major life events, such as parents' divorce, parents' early death, dependence on others, dislike of any teacher at school, and his self-confidence has been hit hard. At that time, his self-regulation ability was still very poor, and he would be depressed if he could not adjust himself after some blows. Susceptible diseases of qi stagnation constitution: 1, depression 2, mania, such as hysteria, sudden fainting, all vital signs of western medicine are normal, but unconscious, or seemingly unable to walk immediately, but all the tests are normal. This condition is called women's dirty dryness. 3, easy to lose sleep. Insomnia, which is dominated by qi stagnation constitution, is difficult to treat. The so-called heart disease needs a cardiologist. Sedatives are ineffective at this time. 4, chest pain and intercostal neuralgia, mainly pain. 5, premenstrual tension syndrome is relatively easy to get, this situation is more common in people with qi stagnation. 6, breast hyperplasia: if it is qi stagnation, it is mainly pain, if it is congestion, it is a relatively fixed stabbing pain, like acupuncture. 7, irregular menstruation: mainly manifested as menstrual cycle disorder. Generally speaking, this kind of person is less since menarche, and most of them are related to the kidney; Excessive menstrual flow and pale color are related to the spleen, and the menstrual cycle is chaotic, mostly related to the liver. The key of qi stagnation constitution lies in the liver. Blood stasis and qi stagnation are common in women, so some Chinese doctors say that "women are born with liver." For women, the liver is particularly important, and many gynecological diseases come from the line of liver. 8. Dysmenorrhea: Like people with blood stasis, most of these people begin to relieve dysmenorrhea on the day when menstrual flow is high. It often hurts especially before menstruation or when menstruation is about to come out on the first day. 9. Chronic pharyngolaryngitis 10, cervical goiter 1 1, hyperthyroidism 12, digestive tract ulcer: most people have bad stools, and some people are depressed when they are unhappy. His first reaction was a stomachache immediately, and then his stomach growled and he had diarrhea. When I have loose bowels, my stomach stops screaming, my pain stops, and my mood gets better. Her diarrhea is closely related to her mood. 14, migraine, mostly swelling and pain, blood stasis constitution is easy to cause tingling. Health-keeping principle of qi stagnation constitution: Qi stagnation constitution is the same as blood stasis constitution, mainly aimed at the liver. To make it alive, the liver qi must be stretched. 1, note: Chinese medicine says that the liver is yin and yang. From the perspective of viscera, it belongs to yin and viscera, and from the perspective of function, it mainly stores blood. The function of liver controlling blood storage is essentially yin. Because a lot of blood is hidden, it has a solid foundation and can be drained. If it's liver blood deficiency, it's easy to drain, or it doesn't have the strength to drain and stagnate there. In other words, the liver must nourish it with yin blood, so that it can be excreted and released, so that your digestion is good, your menstruation is regular, and your mood is relatively stable and peaceful. This is your liver blood. If the liver and blood are deficient, if it is not excessive and irritable, blood pressure will soar; Either you are depressed there, or you simply don't drain, and you will stagnate. At the beginning, you will be depressed. After a long time, most of them will turn into blood stasis. Blood is not easy because of bad breath. In fact, qi stagnation constitution and blood stasis constitution belong to one category, but blood stasis constitution is more threatening to people's life and health. To prevent blood stasis, we must be good at conditioning when we are depressed. Qi stagnation constitution is the upstream stage of blood stasis constitution to some extent, so its maintenance is very meaningful. If you want to let the general, stick, vent and let go freely, then you must make full use of liver blood, so you must make up some liver blood at this time. Generally speaking, there are some problems in the liver, some are organic, some are functional, and some may have been infected by some viruses. People with liver-blood deficiency are irritable and depressed, and their mood will not be very stable. When he has a bad temper, he will let go too much. When the liver yang is upwelling, it is necessary to suppress the liver yang by clearing the liver heat. But it should be noted that he must raise some liver yin, which is called soft liver in Chinese medicine, such as Polygonum multiflorum Thunb and Radix Paeoniae Alba. If liver blood deficiency can't excrete and is depressed to that place, give some Polygonum multiflorum Thunb and Angelica sinensis, so that the depressed physique will be improved. Therefore, the health care points of qi stagnation constitution are as follows: soothing the liver and regulating qi; Second, liver blood must be supplemented, especially for women. 2, diet health: diet, such as lemonade, oranges, dried tangerine peel, citrus fruits, onions, loofah and so on. But the food should not be too cold. Sometimes I get angry because I am depressed. When this kind of person gets angry and has heat syndrome, he must be careful when clearing away heat, not too cold. You can also drink a little. 3, daily life: a, listen to cheerful and exciting music, such as waltz. B, travel more, get close to nature, and the air machine naturally stretches. C. Make more cheerful friends. When people are in a happy mood, qi activity will stretch. 4. Simplified prescription: drugs for treating liver blood: Polygonum Multiflori Radix, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Colla Corii Asini, Radix Angelicae Sinensis and raisins. Soothing liver and regulating qi: Rhizoma Cyperi, Fructus Citri Sarcodactylis, and Bupleuri Radix Chinese patent medicines: Xiaoyao Pill, Chaihu Shugan Powder and Yueju Pill can all be used to regulate physique. When you have obvious qi stagnation, breast pain, irregular menstruation, moping, fidgeting, loss of appetite and poor stool, you can choose these drugs for conditioning. 5, four seasons maintenance: people who are mainly depressed in spring must stretch their bodies and stretch their emotions in spring. Spring is the best golden season to improve people's health with the help of natural forces. For example, kidney deficiency, we must pay close attention to winter tonic; Yin deficiency and internal heat, lung depression is not good, we should pay close attention to autumn tonic; The liver is the weak link, which needs to be replenished in spring. 6, acupoint health care: acupoints commonly used to regulate qi: Zhongyu, Qihai, Neiguan, Zhongshan. Every night before going to bed or when spring comes, you can burn it with your hands and rub your ribs. The left rib is the passage through which the liver runs. Another note: people with qi stagnation constitution are not suitable for catching a cold. The qi, blood and body fluids of the human body have one thing in common, that is, it is very carefree when it is warm, and its functional process will be smoothly exercised. When it is cold, it will be affected, stagnant and slow.
