Personalized treatment with precise application of "internal and external treatment" has a good effect

In recent years, various traditional Chinese medicine hospitals and comprehensive hospitals in Wuhan have been promoting winter and summer treatment for diseases. How can we form distinctive features and meet the personalized needs of citizens? Each department of Hubei Province Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital is exploring and innovating to form its own characteristics.

"Sanfutie+Fuyang Moxibustion" can strengthen the body. Zhang Yangpu, director of the rehabilitation medical center of the hospital, introduced that, as an application unit of "Shinise", the department inherited the refined secret prescriptions of famous and old Chinese doctors in the country, and after more than ten years of continuous summary and improvement, developed external formulas with significant effects such as "Fuyang ointment" and "pain relief". In order to facilitate the majority of patients to seize the opportunity of disease treatment and prevention and health care, on the basis of the "Sanfutie", new projects such as three volt moxibustion, ambush needle, cupping, and ambush line are added. Director Zhang Yangpu reminded: "During the interval of Sanfutie, moxibustion can be used to enhance the production of yang qi, enhance the effect of Sanfutie, and achieve the effect of removing dampness, unblocking collaterals, promoting qi, relieving pain, and strengthening the body."

Relieve "cough, phlegm, and asthma", and persist for a long time with good therapeutic effects. Under the guidance of Zhang Jixian, the director of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Illness and the second level professor, and based on the summary of doctors of past dynasties and decades of clinical experience, the formula has the effects of warming yang and benefiting qi, tonifying the kidney and lung, strengthening the right and tonifying the deficiency, eliminating phlegm and cough, relieving asthma, and balancing yin and yang. At the same time, according to the physique, disease, and syndrome of different patients, different acupoints are selected for application to achieve better effects. Director Zhang Jixian introduced that patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease can take three years as a cycle, and the symptoms of "cough, phlegm and asthma" will be alleviated in the first year. Most patients will achieve good results after three to six years of persistence, so it is advisable to persist for a long time.

Winter sickness needs to be treated in summer, and cupping and ironing are essential.

She said that while applying Sanfutie externally, there were also famous old Chinese doctors who felt the pulse and watched the tongue, identified the physique, selected acupoints and positioned them. At the same time, they also carried out scraping, pressing beans at ear points, cupping, hot ironing, moxibustion and other treatments. The combination of strength and efficacy greatly increased.

Rhinitis and pharyngitis are treated separately, and specialized prescriptions have better therapeutic effects. This year, the Department of Otolaryngology and Pharyngology innovated on the "Sanfutie". In the past, it was applied together with rhinitis and pharyngitis, but now it is treated separately for rhinitis and pharyngitis. Director Zhang Xiao introduced that the department has developed two independent formulas, Rhinitis Formula and Pharyngitis Formula, and experts have selected acupoints based on the syndrome differentiation of pharyngitis and rhinitis. At the same time, treatments such as pressing needles and ear acupoints are also carried out for rhinitis. Director Zhang Xiao said that after the improvement of "internal and external treatment", the effect of Sanfutie will be more lasting, which can effectively improve nasal ventilation, nasal itching, pharyngitis and foreign body sensation symptoms, achieve the functions of warming and tonifying yang, dispelling cold and expelling evil, promoting blood circulation and unblocking collaterals, and fundamentally improve the body's resistance and eliminate persistent diseases.
