Chapter 103: On the Five Elements of Medicine

"Yes, the pain can't stand it, and the painkillers don't work!" The other party replied when he heard Wang Ming's inquiry, although his speech was a little unfavorable.

"Frequent toothaches?" Wang Ming asked.

"No, it started recently!"

Hearing the other party's answer, Wang Ming also understood a little, often toothache is kidney yin deficiency can not collect yang, the void fire floats, you can take the Chinese patent medicine Zhibai Dihuang pill to nourish yin and reduce fire.

"Xu Wang, come here, see what he should do?" Wang Ming said to Xu Wang, who was a little idle.

"Haode, I'll take a look. Xu Wang replied and observed carefully.

"Yuan ginseng, raw land each 5 money, wheat Dong 2 money, (to the heart) Danpi, Ze Yuan each half money, this side is the main. After the symptoms, add the upper four incisors to the heart fire, plus Tiaoqin, Mutong, and wick; the lower four incisors belong to the kidney fire, plus Zhimu, Phellodendron and Yuan Shen; the left lower teeth belong to the liver fire, plus gall grass, white peony, and Bupleurum; the left upper teeth belong to the gallbladder fire, plus Qingdai, Su Ye; the right lower teeth belong to the lung fire, plus bellflower, mulberry, and Tiaoqin; the right upper teeth belong to the spleen fire, plus gypsum, bamboo leaves, and Yuanming powder. Add 1 money to the above, decoction in water, add medicine to the certificate, I think he is the next four doors of kidney fire, and add Zhimu, cork, and ginseng on this main recipe. After Xu Wang finished speaking, he began to wait for Wang Ming's theory.

"Well, that's all right, but don't you have something simple?" asked Wang Ming.

"Simpler?"

"Well, to put it simply, let the patient recover as quickly as possible, which is also what doctors should pursue!

"He has a toothache, and he rubs it with raw plaster, and he can fix his teeth. If you don't need pepper and liquor to treat toothache, 10 peppercorns, one or two liquors, soak peppercorns in wine, take them in the wine after ten minutes, take effect in a few minutes, 2 times a day for 10 minutes each time, and heal in 3-4 days. ”

After Xu Wang finished speaking, he looked at Wang Ming.

"Don't you think you're too troublesome and time-consuming?" Wang Ming continued.

"I really can't think of one, Master, let's say one. Xu Wang thought about it carefully, and found that he remembered that they were all similar to this recipe, and he really couldn't think of anything else.

"Well, I'll tell you a quick way to stop your toothache. The acupuncture points for quick toothache relief are different from acupressure, and the acupuncture points for the upper and lower teeth are different for quick toothache relief. If the upper tooth has a toothache, you should acupressure the "Yingxiang" acupoint. The "Yingxiang" acupoint is located in two places about 1 cm next to the wings of the nose, and there will be pain when you press it with your hand. This acupuncture point is not only effective in preventing toothache in the upper teeth, but also in the nose. If you have a toothache in the lower teeth, cross your left and right fingers and extend the middle finger of your thumb over the middle finger of your hand to the radius, looking for a place where it hurts when you press it.

When applying acupressure to these acupuncture points, you should exhale and press for up to 10 seconds. If this is repeated 20 times, the pain in the upper and lower teeth will be immediately reduced, and the acupressure method for treating toothache in the lower teeth can be replaced left and right with the thumb placed on the top. ”

"Do you remember?" Wang Ming said to the patient, and then at the same time wrote a copy of Xu Wang's prescription to the other party, one is cure and the other is prevention.

"When Chinese medicine can not use medicine, try not to use medicine, although you understand some pharmacology, but after all, it is still a little shallow. Do you know what the Five Elements of Medicine are?" Wang Ming said to Xu Wang.

"Please teach me, teacher!" Xu Wang asked for advice sincerely.

"Let's wait a while, I'm about to end today's free clinic, and when it's over, I'll tell you about it, but your thinking is a little rigid!" Wang Ming said to Xu Wang.

Most of the time, these disciples were completely rigid in their treatment, and they didn't know how to deal with some tricky patients, and Wang Ming was very dissatisfied with this.

"It's finally over!" Zhao Ling said as she stretched her waist.

Except for Wang Ming, several people were almost exhausted. …,

"Okay, let's go back!" After Wang Ming finished talking to Liu Guoqing, he left with his disciples.

After a simple meal, Wang Ming drove a few people back to the mountain.

"Today, although your performance is not bad, you also have a lot of shortcomings! Do you know what the shortcomings are?" Wang Ming said to a few people in the wooden building.

"Master, we're too obsessed with books!" Xu Wang said with his head bowed. He also understands his shortcomings, but the habits he has developed over the years are not so easy to change.

"Well, indeed. You are all products of exam-oriented education, although you have been taught by your family, but you still read it in school, and you have all studied the lecture notes of "Chinese Materia Medica" in the teaching of traditional Chinese medicine, right?" asked Wang Ming.

"Well, learned. Except for Zhao Bo and Zhao Ling, the other three all nodded yes.

"Today, I'll tell you about the five elements of medicine!" Wang Ming said.

Under the expectant gaze of several disciples, Wang Ming spoke.

"For all medicines, the first is yin and yang, and the second is divided into five elements. If we don't know the five elements of medicine, how can we match the five internal organs and six internal organs; if we don't know the five elements of medicine, how can we talk about the sexual taste and taste of the scriptures? If we don't know a medicine, if we go down to one side and list ten or even dozens of kinds of medicines, and the combinations are mixed, won't they become a mess? If such people use medicine, they will be like a blind man walking at night, and it will be pitch black! The prescription prescribed can only be to scratch the blind indiscriminately! When such a medicinal soup is in the stomach, the healer does not know what he is walking through, let alone where his way back is, will he not change and swarm? Not to mention the extravagance of seeking it to cure the disease? Like a fool leading his army, he does not know where his army is going, nor where the city is being attacked, and when he goes out of the city, he is brave enough to scatter as birds and beasts.

All things in the universe are not made of the five elements, so they all contain the nature of the five elements. If you only memorize by rote, what rhubarb is diarrhea, Coptis chinensis clears the fire, ginseng replenishes qi, atractylodes dampness, tangerine peel dissolves phlegm・・・・・・ so learning medicine, as if according to the gourd and parrot the tongue, how can we understand the true meaning of medicine? I mean that the so-called textbooks can be burned also!

The five elements are wood, fire, earth, metal, and water, and the five colors are blue, red, yellow, white, and black, and the five flavors are sour, bitter, sweet, pungent, and salty.

Wood:

Therefore, all the traditional Chinese medicine is still green and green after drying, which contains the energy of wood in the five elements, which can be discussed as 'wood', so it mostly belongs to the liver and gallbladder. Such as: skullcap, yinchen, soft bupleurum, green calyx, mulberry leaves, silkworm sand, half-branch lotus, artemisia annua, sapona, qingfeng vine, mutong, tendon grass, horsetail, cumin and so on. Carefully arguing, skullcap enters the gallbladder meridian and clears its dampness and heat,

Yin Chenli's liver and gallbladder are damp and yellow,

Soft chai hu rises liver qi and relieves depression,

The green plum blossom enters the liver and disperses stagnation,

Mulberry leaves clear the liver and dispel wind,

Silkworm sand rises liver and gallbladder and clears yang and lowers turbidity,

Half a lotus relieves the evil of the liver and gallbladder and relieves the pain of the hypochondriac,

Artemisia annua dispels liver and gallbladder dampness and smooths yang qi,

The soap alum drives away the damp phlegm of the liver and gallbladder and kills the three insects,

Qingfeng vine enters the liver and dispels wind, good at relieving pain,

Mutong dispels liver and gallbladder dampness and diuretics,

Stretch the tendon grass into the liver and go to the tendon and remove the dampness of the tendon,

The horsetail enters the liver and gallbladder and brightens its eyes, scatters knots, and fades,

Cumin disperses liver and gallbladder qi, so it treats hernia and relieves pain. I won't go into more detail below.

In terms of taste, those who taste sour are also wood, into the liver and gallbladder, such as: white peony, taro meat, black plum, miscanthus salt, schisandra, bile alum, alum, papaya, yam and so on. Scholars draw inferences from all the rest.

Here's a brief summary:

Soil:

The yellow color belongs to the soil, which contains the nature of the soil, and is mostly attributed to the spleen and stomach, and the spleen and stomach are the main muscles, so they can also walk the muscles. It is based on Atractylodes (although Atractylodes is white, it is actually yellow), Atractylodes, Polygonatum polygonatum, Polygonatum japonica, Codonopsis, Sulfur, Astragalus, Coptis chinensis, Phellodendron chinensis, Skullcap and so on. In fact, it is not the case that cork and skullcap can dispel dampness, muscles, and dampness in the skin, so skin eczema is often used. …,

Those who taste sweet also belong to the earth, and they also go to the spleen and stomach. Such as Polygonatum vulgaris, Astragalus membranaceus, Codonopsis, Polygonatum japonica, Rehmannia, Yam, wolfberry, jujube, starch syrup, glucose, licorice, sand ginseng, Mai Dong, Tiandong, soybean, lotus seed meat, etc., are all flavored into the soil, but also spleen and stomach Chinese medicine.

Golds:

The white color belongs to gold, so the white color is more into the lungs or large intestine. Such as Yunling, Atractylodes, Yam, Fritillary, Coix, Talc, Borneol, Tangerine, Lotus Seed, Ophiopogon Radix, Atractylodes, Aconite, Keel, Oyster, Gypsum, Tremella Fungus, Smallpox Pollen and so on.

The taste of pungent belongs to gold, so the fine pungent pepper, chili, ginger, atractylodes, spinning compound flower, mint, orange peel, Huoxiang, palm ginseng, Nanxing, Banxia, Xu Changqing, root, saponium, borneol, camphor, quinoa, saponaria, gypsum, etc. are all lung or colon medicines.

Water:

Yishiyan, rehman, raw land, scrophular, psoralen, magnet, ligustrum, mulberry, big cloud, black bean, psyllium, pepper, black ant, centipede are all kidney water medicines. In terms of taste, miscanthus nitrate, big cloud, Suoyang, Chuanduan, salt, fire nitrate, salty aconite, schisandra and so on, are also kidney water medicines.

There must be changes in the usual, and the one who changes is that in the five elements of soil, in addition to the sweetness, the light taste also belongs to the soil, and the fragrant ones also belong to the spleen soil, and the aroma pleases the spleen. Therefore, those who study medicine should know that Poria cocos, barley, stone small, soil poria, lentils, light bamboo leaves, etc., are light in taste and enter the spleen. Tangerine peel, herb, cloves, jatamansi, anise, cumin, trinaphthalene, grass fruit, etc., enter the spleen with aroma.

In addition, in the five elements of fire, although the bitter taste belongs to the fire, but the heart is the official of the monarch, and the bitter cold is for the king, how can it enter it? Therefore, the bitter taste is generally regarded as entering the small intestine and not entering the heart. In addition to the bitter taste into the small intestine, it is also discussed in the gallbladder meridian, because the bile taste is bitter, from its kind. Such as: skullcap, gall grass, knotweed, gongying, diding, sophora, rhubarb, gardenia, mutong, citrus aurantium and so on. It also enters the small intestine, and the bitter taste is fiery, so it can also win the dampness.

Those who enter the heart, the color red is genuine, such as angelica, cloves, cinnabar, salvia, safflower, wolfberry, longan meat, corn meat, danpi, red

Peony, schisandra, jujube kernel, cypress kernel, oil atractylodes, cinnamon, cinnamon branches, ochre, blood exhaustion, etc., can all be in the heart. ”

"The above is the general idea of the five elements of medication, each medication, so viewed, thought, and thought, the chest is not attached to any part of the materia medica, and a grass and a tree are self-evident, such as looking up at the palm of the line, such as the Ding Ding to solve the cow, twist it with your hand, that is, it is a good medicine. If this is the case, you can also look at the prescription!" Wang Ming looked at several disciples after finishing in one breath.

"We are ashamed that our disciples must study the Five Elements Formula. Wang Ming's words made several people feel and understand that Chinese medicine is constantly evolving!
