Angina why western medicine pays attention to promoting blood circulation and Chinese medicine pays attention to warming yang?

Recently, the weather is cold, and patients with angina pectoris are one after another. Why is the cold weather easy to angina pectoris? This is related to the nature that the heart belongs to fire.

In the eyes of western medicine and many people, this is an arbitrary statement of Chinese medicine. Not objective, why didn't you see a fire in your body?

This is an ignorance of Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine has the theory of five elements. Each of the five internal organs has its own characteristics.

Lung, liver, kidney, heart and spleen belong to Jin Mu's five elements. And the five elements have their own attributes. It is to highly summarize the functional attributes of the five internal organs by analogy.

For example, the heart is fire, which means that the heart is the driving force of qi and blood. Maintain life and vitality. Live with heart fire, and die without heart fire. It is the core embodiment of human yang.

It's fire, so the more prosperous the better. For example, children are pure yang and have strong growth function. It grows and develops rapidly. Heart rate is faster than that of normal adults. The whole body is warm, like a small stove. My heart is full of fire. And the elderly, with the growth of age, the sun and the moon run out, and the mood is gradually insufficient, they will be cold all over and their hands and feet will be cold. Even edema. In fact, it is a manifestation of deficiency of heart-yang and dampness stagnation.

The heart governs the blood vessels, which means that the heart fire drives the blood vessels to run the whole body, warms the bones of limbs and maintains the normal operation of organ functions of the whole body.

Once the heart qi is insufficient and the heart yang is insufficient, the blood circulation will be slow and stagnant, and there will be poor blood circulation, chest pain, angina pectoris and myocardial infarction.

My heart is like fire, and I am most afraid of catching cold. Whether it is cold in winter, eating or drinking cold food, or drinking cold food such as herbal tea, cold drinks, cold noodles, chrysanthemum tea, crabs, turtles and ducks, it is easy to damage the yang of the spleen and stomach, and then damage the yang of the heart. Because the heart is fire and the spleen and stomach are soil. Heart fire should warm spleen and soil. Is the mother-child relationship. If the child's internal organs are damaged, it will involve the mother's internal organs. These people who often eat cold and catch cold, or often abuse some drugs for relieving cold and clearing heat, often have a very profound experience: for example, some people are often constipated, and they often use drugs for relieving cold and clearing heat such as Huanglian Shangqing Pill, Sanhuang Tablet, Intestinal Tea and Cassia Seed to promote defecation. But over time, you will often find drowsiness, dizziness, pale face, cold hands and feet, chest tightness and dull pain, or angina pectoris, and even radiate to your left shoulder and back.

This is the damage of heart yang, which leads to poor blood circulation and pain due to qi and blood obstruction. Have angina pectoris or myocardial infarction.

Therefore, from ancient times to the present, doctors of all ages have paid great attention to keeping people warm and cold-proof, not catching a cold, not eating cold or drinking cold. This is a long-standing health care concept of our Chinese nation. It has been passed down from generation to generation, and all elders will tell their children a proverb. But it has its own significance, in fact, it is to protect the yang of the human body, especially to prevent the heart yang from being damaged. Prevent angina pectoris and myocardial infarction.

In modern western medicine, the treatment of angina pectoris and myocardial infarction are all methods of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Because in their view, congestion is the cause of these, it is reasonable to dilate blood vessels and eliminate congestion, and the curative effect is rapid and accurate.

It's fast, but what caused the congestion? Why children don't have this disease, but most of them appear in middle-aged and elderly people.

Chinese medicine believes that this congestion is only the result, not the cause. The reason is that with the growth of age, especially middle-aged and elderly people, they are tired, sad, or have a cold, or eat cold. Deficiency of heart-yang and yin-cold block can not promote blood circulation, leading to blood stasis block. That's why. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that slight yin-yang chord is the cause of chest obstruction (angina pectoris, myocardial infarction). Yang Wei here refers to the deficiency of yang, while yin string originally refers to string pulse, which refers to a pulse condition that occurs when yin cold is excessive in the body. Excessive yin cold representing fingers is the core cause of this disease.

Therefore, in the treatment, warming yang and dispelling cold is a great method for treating angina pectoris and myocardial infarction in traditional Chinese medicine.

Obviously, the treatment idea of western medicine is based on the result, while the treatment idea of Chinese medicine is to trace the source and seek the root, which is why many people say that Chinese medicine is the root cause. It also contains the root cause that Chinese medicine is not easy to relapse after treatment.

Protect your heart, keep warm in winter, and don't catch a cold. Be greedy and take a bath often in summer, and don't lie on the floor. Because it is easy to sweat in summer, the yang in the body is more insufficient, and it is easier to catch cold. Don't eat cold food, including crabs, turtles, ducks, cold drinks and cold-skinned chrysanthemum tea.

Don't worry too much, and often stay up late. This will consume sadness and damage the heart yang.

Don't eat unclean food, severe vomiting and diarrhea will also damage the spleen and stomach yang, and then hurt the heart yang.

We should also pay attention to abstinence and treasure essence to avoid excessive sexual intercourse or abortion, which will damage liver and kidney essence and blood and kidney yang, and then lead to heart yang damage.

I often see many young people with myocardial infarction and angina pectoris, and they have frequent attacks, all in the case of too much sexual life. At this time, it is necessary to tonify kidney and heart. Otherwise, it will directly dilate blood vessels and promote blood circulation, with little effect.
