Summary of what it called constipation, one is to reduce stool frequency, such as 3-4 days or more than 10 days defecation 1, the second is a lot of stool frequency, but dry stool, discharge effort, the third is quit hard stools, although it is intended , But the bowel movement is not smooth. To use an analogy: stool is a boat, and intestines are a river. For a boat to walk normally in a river, two conditions must be met: one is to have the power to move forward, and the other is to have water in the river. Both are indispensable.
1. Lack of motivation to move forward (equivalent to Qi deficiency and Qi depression in Chinese medicine)
1. Deficiency of Qi
For example, the lung, spleen, and kidney qi are weak, and the large intestine is weak in transmission. In this constipation, the stool is not dry and hard. Although the stool is intended, it is difficult to defecate, accompanied by shortness of breath, fatigue, and cold hands. It can be used for conditioning such as Astragalus , Codonopsis for invigorating the spleen and Qi, Shengmai Sanbufei, and Shenqi pills.
2. Stagnation
The liver is the hub of the visceral qi machine. If the liver qi is stagnated, the visceral qi machine is blocked and the large intestine conduction is weak, constipation will result. In this type of constipation, the stools are not very dry and clumpy, and the bowels are uncomfortable or uncomfortable, accompanied by bowel, anal exhaust, and abdominal bloating. The conditioning mainly focuses on soothing the liver and regulating qi. You can take Chaihu Shugan powder or Xiaoyao powder and other prescriptions. In addition, pay attention to the ease of emotion and not easily get angry.
2. Water shortage in the river (equivalent to insufficient body fluid, water, and yin fluid in Chinese medicine)
1. Lung heat injury
The lungs are scorched, which is easy to dry and heat and damage the body fluid (the body fluid is similar to the water in the river). It is even worse in autumn, with dry stools and dry mouth. As well as respiratory diseases, coughing and gasping are often accompanied by constipation. Lung heat to regulate. For example, you can take Loquat Qingfei Decoction; eat more foods that moisturize the lungs and relieve dryness and relieve bowel movements, such as almonds, white radish, and honey .
2. Spleen and stomach fever
The spleen and stomach are the acquired body, which can not only dissolve qi and blood nutrients and water dampness, but also transport qi, blood and blood nutrients and dampness to all parts of the body. If the diet is not tempered, like big fish and meat, drinking and eating spicy food, often staying up late, etc., it will damage the spleen and stomach. On the one hand, the dampness cannot run to the whole body (including the large intestine). And constipation, accompanied by bad breath, dry mouth, bitter mouth. The conditioning is mainly to clear stomach heat, invigorate the spleen and promote fluid. You can take Chinese patent medicines such as Qingwei San, Huoxiang Qingwei Pills, etc.; eat a light diet and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits.
3. Kidney
There are kidney yin and kidney yang, qi is yang, and kidney qi has been discussed in the previous paragraph. I will only talk about kidney yin here. This type of constipation has dry stools like sheep feces, and is often accompanied by dizziness, tinnitus, upset, insomnia, waist and knee weakness. You can take Liuwei Dihuang Wan to nourish yin and nourish the kidney.
