Lipoma, called phlegm nucleus in traditional Chinese medicine, has been called this name since ancient times, if you don't believe it, you can go to the medical books, almost all of the classics of the past dynasties are recorded like this.
When it comes to phlegm nucleus, it must be related to phlegm dampness, and further, where does phlegm dampness come from? Phlegm dampness is the result of the spleen not moving.
According to traditional Chinese medicine, when the spleen is weak and cannot metabolize water, it will gather to form dampness, which will accumulate phlegm for a long time, and finally condense into a nucleus. In the neck, it is called a thyroid nodule; In the breast, it is called a breast nodule; In the lungs, it is called a pulmonary nodule. When it flows into the skin, it becomes a lipoma.
Therefore, if you want to eliminate lipoma, you must start from the essence, strengthen the spleen, dissolve dampness, dissolve phlegm, and disperse knots.
