- Snowflake: I am male, and my whole body skin is particularly dry, especially in winter. It has always been like this. My facial skin is so dry that it itches, and I usually apply a little makeup. Otherwise, my face looks dry and flaky. Answer: Since you are male, it means your skin is prone to allergies. You have higher levels of histamine and serotonin than average, and inhibitors of these substances—such as diphenhydramine, chlorpheniramine maleate, and cyproheptadine—are effective. You can try them. The principle of traditional Chinese medicine treatment remains promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that yang is wind, so to treat wind, first treat blood. Once blood flows, wind naturally disappears, relieving wind and itching, resulting in softer skin, slower keratinization, and relief of symptoms.
Can now bend and straighten, barely able to take care of oneself, and movement is inconvenient . What measures can be taken to control the condition and reduce
mild pain? I've been taking painkillers for years, which has caused some liver and lung problems. As advertised by Cao Qing
Is Huaguan capsule effective for rheumatoid arthritis? Answer: Rheumatoid arthritis is very common, especially in rural areas of China. The most serious consequences are joint deformity, pain, and loss of function. All Western medicines, including hormones, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, anilines, pyrazolones, etc., can harm the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, over 95% of rheumatoid arthritis patients suffer gastrointestinal damage. Traditional Chinese medicines such as Leigongteng, Chuancaowu, Liaoxixin, and Maqianzi have good analgesic effects and can prevent joint deformity. However, they also harm the stomach, making treatment more difficult. [3. Zhang Shanghong commented: I have a question to ask you. You have a newborn baby who is 45 days old ,]{.underline}
After discharge from the hospital until now, the baby has had a total of 3 bowel movements, each time only after using glycerin suppositories to facilitate defecation,
The longest time was 9 days, with daily flatulence but no bowel movement. Breastfeeding , breastfeeding is normal. What could be the reason? Should any examinations be conducted? What good
methods are there?
Answer: The baby has been experiencing this situation frequently for 45 days. The reason is that the autonomic nervous system is still developing and needs to mature. Here is a method: Use 20g of Rhus chinensis and 15g of Rheum palmatum, add 100ml of water, boil for 15 minutes, and mix 10ml into the milk bottle each time when feeding. Western Do not add medicine more than three times a day. Medical Special 4. Scarlet Huhu commented: I am 22 years old, and have had flat warts for two or three years, recently they have increased in number and become itchy. What should I do?}{.underline}
Answer: Flat warts are caused by viruses and are quite common, often appearing on exposed parts of the body such as the face, head and neck, and limbs. Western laser and cryotherapy are effective, but traditional Chinese medicine's internal treatment is even better; it leaves no scars and has a low recurrence rate.

Spicy Plum Point Winter: Why do I sometimes suddenly feel my heartbeat speeding up and slowing down? Sometimes it feels like my heart suddenly stops beating. I've had several ECGs, and only one dynamic ECG showed occasional premature beats, but the doctor didn't say this was heart disease. Is this symptom related to premature beats? Does it count as heart disease? How should I treat it? Answer: You do have premature beats, probably ventricular premature beats, because atrial premature beats usually occur unnoticed. You are welcome to visit my clinic for diagnosis.

Rose: My nephew's hair falls out every spring, summer, and autumn, in patches about the size of a one-yuan coin, totaling two or three patches. By winter, the hair grows back, but he doesn't know why and is quite distressed. Answer: This is alopecia areata, also known as patchy baldness, commonly called "ghostly shaving." This type of hair loss often occurs after overwork, poor mental health, or repeated colds. Traditional Chinese medicine is highly effective in treating this condition.

Lu Heqing: Female, 28 years old, Recently, her whole body has been covered in small red spots. After scratching the red patches, the itch becomes unbearable, and she cannot sleep at night. Blood tests show high neutrophils and low platelets. She has taken diphenhydramine, cetirizine, Shuanghuanglian, strong prednisone for a day and a half, and intravenous dexamethasone. Topical treatments include calamine lotion, cortisone mixed with glycerin suppositories, dehumidifying and anti-itch washing liquid. She has also received intravenous cephalosporins, saline, vitamin C, calcium, and sugar for two days. Additionally, she underwent ultraviolet irradiation once and cryotherapy twice. Answer: Your medication regimen is too complex. I suspect you have either a drug allergy or a food allergy. You are using too many medications, which is a typical case of overtreatment. Allergic diseases should not be treated this way. Although the medications you are using all have some anti-allergic effects, their cross-use can create new allergens. My advice is to stop using the above medications and only use diphenhydramine. You have been using hormones, so do not stop them immediately. Continue taking prednisone, but discontinue dexamethasone. In the next few days, avoid meat, eggs, milk, fish and shrimp, mushrooms, and other foods.

Qi Yue commented: Female, 28 years old,
Previously, I was diagnosed with facial neuritis. As soon as it was discovered, I started acupuncture treatment and took traditional Chinese medicine. It has now been 40 days, and there is no visible facial asymmetry. However, when I blow air or say words like "I" or "not," the left side of my upper lip twitches to the right, showing a slight deviation. Currently, I am taking vitamin B1 and B12. The doctor said that no further treatment is needed; just wait for recovery. Nevertheless, I am still quite worried. Are there any good treatment methods?
Answer: Acupuncture should not be performed within two months, as it can cause some trauma to the nerve endings, which may instead lead to further damage and exacerbate the facial asymmetry. Vitamin B complex is symptomatic treatment. If strong corticosteroids such as prednisone are used during the acute phase, recovery will be faster.
- Scarlet HuHu commented: I bought interferon for oral use and topical application, but I also heard that interferon is ineffective against flat warts that have been present for two to three years. Recently, the itching has increased, and I am very anxious. Is there a traditional Chinese medicine formula that can treat this more quickly? Answer: Everyone’s condition is different—this is known in physiology as genetic polymorphism. Interferon’s ability to inhibit viruses is well-established, but its side effects are also widely known. To cure the disease, one must not fear the side effects; we can discuss them later. Of course, some individuals experience quite obvious side effects from interferon, such as general malaise and a decrease in white blood cells. If these side effects become intolerable for the patient, treatment can be stopped and another approach chosen. This question was already answered on May 6, 2015, in the fifth question; please refer to it.
- Wang Yu commented: My child is under five years old this year, and every spring, the ears, lips, and cheeks develop ulcers. What could be the reason? Some doctors call it “ear ulcer disease,” but it happens every year and lasts for a relatively long time. Could it be a deficiency of certain trace elements, or what else? Answer: The term “ear ulcer disease” is unscientific. If it’s itchy, it might be eczema; if it’s not itchy, it could be herpes, both caused by viruses. Children often catch colds and have weaker immune function. It is recommended to take thymosin capsules orally. For children over ten years old, thymopentin injections can be given every other day or daily.
I’ve already visited the hospital and taken several courses of traditional Chinese medicine, but there hasn’t been much effect. What should I do?
Answer: Traditional Chinese medicine should be effective, but it requires long-term use. The therapeutic effect is relatively slow. I don’t know what kind of traditional Chinese medicine you’ve been taking, but accurate syndrome differentiation and rational medication are essential.
Whenever I get angry, my back hurts, and I feel chest tightness and shortness of breath. Could it be a heart problem?
Answer: Your age and blood pressure are key factors in analyzing your condition. If you’re young and have low blood pressure, it’s likely poor myocardial perfusion caused by hypotension. If you’re older and have high blood pressure, it’s probably myocardial ischemia caused by coronary heart disease. There’s also autonomic nervous system dysfunction, which TCM calls “deficiency of both the heart and spleen,” and this can also cause similar symptoms. Answer: There are also patent Chinese medicines available. Traditional Chinese painkillers include Aconite, Asarum, Tripterygium, Corydalis, Melia, and processed Myrrh... Overall, however, traditional Chinese painkillers are not as effective as Western painkillers. That’s all I can say.
In the late stage, cancer cells in the thoracic cavity have metastasized to the bones, and the burning sensation in the abdomen is unbearable. Is there any medicine that can alleviate
this burning sensation
and reduce the patient’s suffering?
Answer: Breast cancer recurrence after nine years is common. This disease can metastasize to the bones, brain, liver, and abdominal lymph nodes. Even with such metastases, one shouldn’t assume that life is about to end. It’s important to keep the patient in a good mood and continue taking traditional Chinese medicine. Pain can be managed with analgesic patches for timely relief. Large-scale surgery and chemotherapy are no longer suitable for this patient.
- Zhongyi FM: Female, 24 years old, unmarried. For nearly half a month, she has felt a movable hard lump in her right upper abdomen. The doctor said it was qi stagnation, and she feels a choking sensation in her throat along with bloating. When lying down, she feels like food is about to come out. The doctor diagnosed esophagitis, and she has been taking domperidone tablets and compound pepsin granules for over a week, which has improved her condition somewhat, but she still feels bloated. This afternoon, she again felt severe choking. As a child, she had a weak constitution and often took medicine, and this continues into adulthood. Answer: The movable hard lump in the right upper abdomen suggests a gallbladder issue. You may have chronic cholecystitis, which can cause localized pain and also lead to systemic autonomic nervous system dysfunction. This type of autonomic dysfunction most commonly occurs in the pharynx; people with chronic pharyngitis are more prone to these symptoms. In TCM, this is described as having something stuck in the throat—unable to spit it out or swallow it down—which is colloquially called “plum pit qi.” According to TCM pathogenesis, this is due to liver qi stagnation and upward surging into the pharynx. Western medicine often only focuses on local gallbladder enlargement and simply removes it. In fact, for some patients, removing the gallbladder actually makes this “plum pit qi” worse. The treatment involves both soothing the liver and resolving qi stagnation, as well as fundamentally treating chronic pharyngitis.
- Ziren commented: My cousin is 25 years old and has started losing hair in recent weeks. Every time he scratches his head, hair falls out in clumps. I don’t know what’s causing this or how to treat it. Answer: Hair is the surplus of blood, so hair loss is a clinical manifestation of blood deficiency. Of course, any illness—including both organic and non-organic conditions—can lead to blood deficiency. A comprehensive examination should be conducted to rule out major organic diseases. After excluding those, what remains is what is commonly referred to as hair loss. Traditional Chinese medicine has effective methods for treating this type of hair loss by tonifying blood and qi. Why tonify qi? Because qi is the commander of blood; if qi is deficient, blood will also be deficient. If qi is not deficient, blood will not be deficient either.
- Menghuan Xiyou: I have damp-heat and yin deficiency. In summer, my whole body feels dry and hot, while in winter my hands and feet are cold. My palms and soles are hot, I have insomnia, phlegm in my throat, dry stools, yellow urine, and lower back pain. I took Shashen Maidong Tang, removing the mulberry leaves, and felt less dryness, my complexion improved, and I even had an appetite. However, my palms and soles are still hot, and I still have lower back pain. Can I add Tianmen Dong to the Shashen Maidong Tang without mulberry leaves? [11.

There is an article about your treatment of ocular myasthenia gravis. I don’t know Since when
(about seven or eight years ago, now 26 years old) I’ve felt my upper eyelids drooping,
which looks very unsightly,
Moreover, my eyeballs don’t move flexibly, which is very painful. I’d like to ask whether this is ocular myasthenia gravis,
myasthenia gravis, and whether I can seek your treatment,
and whether it can be cured?
Answer: About half of the initial symptoms of myasthenia gravis are drooping eyelids. You should check creatine kinase, isoenzymes, phosphokinase, and other cardiac enzyme spectra to confirm the diagnosis before proceeding. [12. Xixi: How should eczema be treated? When my child was just a few months old, eczema appeared on his head]{.underline}
Eczema
, and it still appears now.
Answer: Eczema is a minor ailment. Ancient people said, “Diseases like ringworm and scabies are not worth worrying about,” but they are actually very difficult to treat. I’ve encountered too many cases of eczema in clinical practice, and only a portion of them respond effectively. Topical medications like black spot oil ointment are effective.
Answer: I’ve answered this question many times. Newborns’ gastrointestinal autonomic nervous system function is not yet fully developed, so observing them for a while will usually improve their condition. Initially, give them some honey water to relieve discomfort. [After taking more than twenty courses of herbal remedies and cold medicine, my spirits improved somewhat, but this week I took three more courses, and I still have intestinal rumbling, loose stools, shortness of breath,]{.underline} [There is still a dull ache in the left shoulder blade. Could it be autonomic nervous system dysfunction? Can I take some patent Chinese medicine at the same time?]{.underline} Answer: Try taking Shenling Baizhu San.
3\. Xiao Jiu : Please ask whether you have encountered vulvar depigmentation
(vulvar leukoplakia)
Are there any such cases? Many people in our group suffer from this strange disease, with a wide age range,
From a few years old to fifty or sixty,
It is said that there is no cure for this disease.
Answer: I’ve seen many cases of this disease. Traditional Chinese medicine’s syndrome differentiation and treatment are effective, but it cannot completely eradicate the root cause. It can make the white patches softer, lighten the color, and reduce pain and itching. Treatment isn’t solved by a single fixed formula; it must be tailored to each individual based on syndrome differentiation.
