Parkinson's disease is a chronic, progressive neurological disorder characterized by symptoms such as resting tremor, muscle stiffness, bradykinesia, and postural balance disorders. In recent years, with the popularization of vaccines, some Parkinson's disease patients have experienced aggravation of their condition after vaccination, which has aroused widespread concern in society. So, why do people with Parkinson's disease get more severe after vaccination? Reveal the secret from two perspectives
We need to understand the causes of Parkinson's disease. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, Parkinson's disease is mainly caused by internal movement of liver wind, lack of kidney essence, and stagnation of qi and blood. The liver is mainly drained, and the internal movement of the liver wind will lead to the dystrophy of the muscles and veins, and symptoms such as tremor and stiffness will appear; Kidney sperm is stored in the marrow, and insufficient kidney essence will lead to cerebral medullary emptiness, with symptoms such as motor retardation and memory loss; Qi stagnation and blood stasis will lead to blockage of the meridians, and symptoms such as muscle stiffness and pain will appear. Therefore, the treatment of Parkinson's disease needs to start from regulating liver wind, tonifying the kidneys and improving essence, and promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.
Vaccinations may have an impact on the condition of people with Parkinson's disease. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, vaccination is equivalent to introducing an external evil to the human body, which may interfere with the body's righteous qi operation and lead to dysfunction of the internal organs. For patients with Parkinson's disease, vaccination may aggravate these problems due to the internal movement of liver wind, lack of kidney essence, and stagnation of qi and blood, resulting in aggravation of the disease. Specifically, vaccination can raise problems in the following areas:
1
Liver wind internal movement is aggravated
Vaccination may elicit an immune response in the body, leading to an increase in inflammatory factors. Too many inflammatory factors can trigger liver wind internal movement, aggravating symptoms such as tremor and stiffness in patients with Parkinson's disease.
2
Renal sperm deficit worsens
Vaccination may cause the body's immune system to be overactivated, consuming a large amount of kidney essence. For patients with Parkinson's disease, there is already a problem of kidney insufficiency, and vaccination may further aggravate kidney sperm deficit, leading to exacerbation of the disease.
3
Qi and blood stagnation aggravated
Vaccination may cause damage to vascular endothelial cells, inducing platelet aggregation and thrombosis. For patients with Parkinson's disease, there is already a problem of qi and blood stagnation, and vaccination may further aggravate qi and blood stagnation, leading to aggravation of the condition.

4
Vaccination-induced stress response
After vaccination, the body will develop an immune response, triggering a certain degree of stress response. This stress response may lead to neuroendocrine disorders in people with Parkinson's disease, which can aggravate the condition. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, this may be related to stagnation of liver qi and poor qi and blood.
5
Effects of vaccine components on the nervous system
The components of the new crown vaccine mainly include viral antigens, adjuvants, etc. While most of the ingredients are harmless to humans, there are still a small number of patients who may be allergic or intolerant to some of them. These components may have certain effects on the nervous system of people with Parkinson's disease, leading to exacerbations. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, this may be related to the invasion of external evil qi into the meridians and the dysfunction of the internal organs.
6
Individual differences and psychological factors
Everyone's physique and health are different, so the response to the vaccine will also vary. For people with Parkinson's disease, there may be more severe reactions after vaccination due to their relatively poor physical condition. In addition, psychological factors may also affect the condition of patients with Parkinson's disease. Negative emotions such as fear of vaccine side effects and fear of the pandemic may exacerbate the patient's nervous tension, which can lead to worsening of the condition. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, this may be related to emotional internal injury, qi stagnation and blood stasis.
People with Parkinson's disease may experience exacerbations after receiving the vaccine. This phenomenon may be related to a variety of reasons, such as the stress response triggered by vaccination, the effects of vaccine components on the nervous system, and individual differences and psychological factors.
