In daily life, many people will have these symptoms, that is, short-tempered, just like a "bomb", even if it is just a slight "small flame", it will be immediately detonated, in addition, there will be frequent irritability on weekdays, and even accompanied by constipation and other symptoms, in severe cases, or vomiting blood, blood and other manifestations. In the view of traditional Chinese medicine, these symptoms are actually caused by excessive heat and evil in the body, but if you want to maintain good health, you can't "get too angry", so today I will share with you a prescription that can "relieve fire" and help you "drive away" the exuberant fire in your body.
This prescription is "Xingxin Soup", which comes from Zhang Zhongjing's "Jin Kui Yaolu", which is also known as "Sanhuang Soup" and "Sanhuang Xingxin Soup" in other medical books. The compatibility of medicinal materials in this recipe is not complicated, and it only contains 3 flavors of traditional Chinese medicine, namely two taels of rhubarb, one tael of Coptis chinensis and one tael of skullcap, which has the effect of purging fire and dampness.
In fact, among Zhang Zhongjing's many prescriptions, there are many prescriptions named after "Xingxin Soup", such as Banxia Xingxin Soup, Licorice Xingxin Soup, etc. So, what specific conditions can Xingxin decoction be used for the treatment and alleviation of clinical practice? Let's take a look.
1. Bleeding gums
There are two types of bleeding symptoms, namely deficiency and empirical, and the difference between the two is often that the bleeding caused by deficiency syndrome is generally light red, which is closely related to spleen deficiency.
But if the blood is bright red, or after eating hot pot, barbecue and other spicy food, the gums will bleed, then this is the empirical evidence, the empirical evidence is generally the manifestation of the stomach fire, at this time, the body in order to disperse the disease as soon as possible, will let itself have some blood, so we don't have to panic when we see the bleeding, this is also very likely to be the body's self-resolution, discharge of the disease, of course, not only bleeding, mouth ulcers, gum sore and other diseases caused by stomach fire, It can also be treated with Zhang Zhongjing's Xingxin soup.
2. Tinnitus
If the sound of tinnitus is very loud, like passing through the train, then most of it is caused by the liver and gallbladder fire, because the gallbladder meridian is walked around the ear, and the liver and gallbladder are each other's surface and inside, therefore, when many people are angry, they will feel that the ears are ringing non-stop, which is actually a typical fire inflammation ear hole, which can be relieved with Zhang Zhongjing's Xingxin soup.
3. Constipation
In life, there are often not a few people who are troubled by constipation, and there are many reasons for constipation, such as indigestion of diet, lack of fluid in the body, difficulty in transporting and running qi, etc., and for patients with qi deficiency, it is often easy to have constipation symptoms.
However, febrile constipation is usually manifested in people with strong lung fire, and the stool of such patients will also be relatively dry, because the lungs and large intestine are each other's surface and interior, and it is also related to the fire of the heart. The stool will naturally be smooth.
4. Acute pharyngitis, insomnia
When the lung fire is steaming, because the throat is the passage between the lungs and the outside world, it will inevitably be implicated, which will induce sore throat, tonsil inflammation and other diseases. Similarly, some insomnia patients often have difficulty falling asleep because of inner irritability, and need to drink cold water to calm down.
However, you should know that Xingxin decoction is a cold medicine, which discharges the real fire in the body, most of these people have a red tongue and a yellow tongue coating, and most of the medicinal materials in the prescription are cold things, so for patients with spleen and stomach deficiency, they must be used with caution to avoid aggravating the symptoms.
