Xiehuo Dan Can Be Used to Treat Both Exogenous and Endogenous Diseases, January 5, 1998

All complications arising from upper respiratory tract infections, such as sinusitis, epiglottitis, tracheitis, and pneumonia, can be treated with Xiehuo Dan concurrently with syndrome-differentiated herbal decoctions. Hepatitis, nephritis, cholecystitis, appendicitis, and lupus erythematosus can also benefit from Xiehuo Dan when there is a risk of infection. Surgical conditions like furuncles, sores, carbuncles, and abscesses can likewise be treated with Xiehuo Dan. Various gynecological inflammations can also be treated with Xiehuo Dan. This has profound implications: modern medicine refers to this as co-infection, whereas Traditional Chinese Medicine views it as all six qi transforming into fire. Liu Hejian, one of the Four Great Masters of the Jin and Yuan dynasties, proposed that all diseases are ultimately transformed into fire. As stated in "Medical Three-Character Classic," "Liu Hejian specializes in fire; follow his principles and you'll be self-sufficient." Based on more than 40 years of clinical experience, I deeply understand that whether it's an exogenous or endogenous illness, new diseases may not involve fire, but chronic illnesses invariably do! Fire damages qi, and when qi is damaged, the body becomes weak—this is what we call "where evil gathers, qi must be deficient." The introduction of Xiehuo Dan is aimed at eliminating evil, while the development of Fuzheng Granules is intended to strengthen the body. To treat chronic diseases effectively, both eliminating evil and strengthening the body are essential!
