The function of this prescription is also briefly summarized: warming meridians to dispel cold, nourishing blood and dredging veins.
You see, on the one hand, there is insufficient blood, and on the other hand, it is very cold. Many people have this phenomenon now, and Danggui Sini Decoction is effective.
Danggui Sini Decoction: Danggui 12g, Ramulus Cinnamomi 9g, Radix Paeoniae Alba 9g, Asari 3g, medulla Tetrapanacis 6g, Fructus Jujubae 8g and Radix Glycyrrhizae 6g.
You can boil water to drink or soak your feet, and the effect is good.
In this prescription, asarum is the most powerful one to dispel cold. We say that Schizonepeta tenuifolia and Saposhnikovia divaricata can also dispel cold. Generally speaking, they disperse the cold on the surface. If we are accidentally blown by the cold wind, we will boil water with these two herbs. Drinking it can dispel the cold. Asarum is different, very strong. Asarum is very thin, like an arrow, and it can go in to the bone to drive out the hidden cold evil.
Ok, what does Gui Zhi do next? This product warms yang and dispels cold. Ramulus Cinnamomi is a medicine that grows on branches. It grows on the top, in a very high place, and can absorb full yang.
In addition, cassia twig is red, actually with a little bright orange, which is in tune with the inner tone. Therefore, Guizhi is good at entering the heart and can add motivation to the heart. The heart governs the blood vessels, and the strong heart makes the blood vessels unobstructed, so it is not easy to be attacked by cold pathogens.
Here, Cao Tong is responsible for dredging blood stasis, so that the road of blood circulation extends in all directions.
Angelica and Paeonia lactiflora nourish blood and nourish blood. People with blood deficiency are more vulnerable to cold pathogens because of lack of healthy qi. On the other hand, if you are full of blood and blood, you need not be afraid.
Licorice and jujube.
When is Danggui Sini Decoction suitable?
1, cold hands and feet
The original text of Treatise on Febrile Diseases said: "Danggui Sini Decoction is the master of those with cold hands and feet and rapid pulse."
Cold hands and feet can be understood as cold hands and feet. Even if you wear a pair of socks on your feet, you will still feel cold, and sometimes you can even feel the soles of your feet swishing out.
The pulse is very thin, and it is very thin, like it is placed in the hair. What does this mean? Explain that blood deficiency means less blood, and there is not enough blood to fill the pulse. Besides taking the pulse, what are the key points? Remember, people with blood deficiency have pale faces, pale lips and even pale nails.
This type of cold hands and feet, Danggui Sini decoction is very suitable.
2. Various pains caused by cold, such as shoulder pain, arm pain, low back pain and leg pain.
Cold is characterized by stagnation. The simplest thing is that it expands with heat and contracts with cold. The cold makes the channels tighter and tighter, and when the qi and blood get there, it will be blocked, and it will hurt. In addition, the pain caused by cold has another feature. Cold water can't be touched, but it will cool to the bone when touched.
I have met such an old lady before, washing clothes with cold water in cold winter. Her hands are always soaked in cold water, and after a long time, she feels pain here and there. Let her old man soak her feet with Danggui Sini soup. Before soaking her feet, soak her hands in the liquid medicine for ten minutes. You can feel warm after soaking. After about a month or two, the pain was obviously relieved and the old lady showed a smile on her face.
3. Numbness of hands and feet
Many people have had this experience. If you stay outdoors for a long time in winter, your hands and feet will be a little cold and numb. Of course, this is normal. Just go back to the warm room and cover it for a while, and you will recover. Because blood is warm, on the other hand, we say that blood condenses when it is cold, just like rivers freeze in winter. The circulation of qi and blood slows down, and qi and blood cannot reach the limbs. The parts that are not nourished will protest in a numb way. Danggui Sini decoction is more symptomatic while dispelling cold and enriching blood.
4, less menstrual flow, dysmenorrhea, blood clots.
Cold freezes the blood, so the menstrual blood can't come down, so the menstrual flow is small. Coupled with the block of wind and cold, the blood circulation is stumbling and painful.
As for the blood clot, it is also the product of negative molding. Everyone has seen the ice valve hanging on the eaves in winter. As long as the weather gets warmer, it melts little by little and water drops down. Danggui Sini Decoction is a recipe that can make people feel warm.
5, chilblain
Some people say that frostbite is frozen out. That's true, especially in the past when living conditions were relatively difficult. It's different now, the living standard is getting better and better, and there are fewer people suffering from frostbite, but quite a few people are still troubled.
Why? Because of body cold, qi and blood do not circulate. In winter, the temperature drops, and the external cold and internal cold add up. Isn't it rainy night? The skin is painful and itchy, and it is severely blue. Blue skin means blocked blood vessels. Generally speaking, it can also be said to be "frozen".
If you get frostbite every year, just before the arrival of deep winter, soak your feet with Danggui Sini Decoction for a while, and it will not be easy to get frostbite this winter.
What if it grows? Can you still soak? Of course.
