Winter disease is treated in summer at the right time-Jiangxi Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine's "three-volt sticker" is hot.

It's three volts a year again At this time of the year, Jiangxi Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine has become extremely popular, and people have come to the hospital to receive the "three-day patch" service for treating winter diseases and summer diseases.

According to Dr. Zhang, director of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine of Jiangxi Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, because of its simple operation, convenient use and no side effects, the three-volt patch has been well received by the people and has "flown into the homes of ordinary people". On the first day of last year, the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine provided patch service for nearly 1,000 patients.

It is understood that the three-volt patch has a long history and is a traditional Chinese medicine therapy. "Treating winter diseases in summer" is a traditional Chinese medicine characteristic therapy based on the principle of "nourishing yang in spring and summer" of the ancients. "Winter disease" refers to some diseases that are prone to occur or aggravate in winter, such as bronchitis, bronchial asthma, allergic rhinitis, vulnerable people, rheumatism and rheumatoid arthritis. "Summer treatment" means that these diseases are relieved in summer. In the remission season, it is necessary to treat according to syndrome differentiation, and use some prescriptions and therapies appropriately to prevent the recurrence of old diseases in winter or alleviate symptoms.

According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, "yang density is solid", which means that the human body is full of yang, but it is not easy to be invaded by external evils. Climate change in nature will affect the physiological function of human body, and human body is in a pathological state, especially patients with yang deficiency are more susceptible to natural changes, which is the theory of "correspondence between man and nature". In the dog days of summer, the human body's yang is abundant outside and deficient inside. By applying warm medicine on the corresponding acupoints, we can help the weak yang in the body, and combine the two with the abundant yang in nature to dispel the residual cold evil in the body, thus stimulating the yang in the body and increasing the disease resistance.

According to Dr. Fu Yong, Director of Acupuncture Department of Jiangxi Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, in the long-term medical practice, it is found that these respiratory diseases, cardiovascular diseases, digestive diseases, kidney diseases, rheumatic diseases, pediatric diseases and otolaryngology diseases that are prone to yang deficiency in winter can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine to alleviate the symptoms and diseases in winter.

Fu Yong also reminded patients that summer is the most vigorous period of yang in nature. At this time, the yang of the human body is at the peak of the annual rhythm, and the skin is in a state of drainage. If you choose acupoint application, the drug can easily penetrate into the acupoints and meridians, drive away the cold in the body, and make the constitution of yang deficiency and vulnerability to external cold return to normal, which can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

It is understood that Jiangxi Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine has carried out the special diagnosis and treatment service of "treating winter diseases in summer" for more than ten years, and has formed a standardized diagnosis and treatment plan. This year, the hospital will continue to integrate the resources of experts in the hospital, give full play to the advantages of disciplines, use the special preparations in the hospital, popularize the technology of traditional Chinese medicine, and carry out the "three-volt patch" special diagnosis and treatment services in departments such as respiratory and critical illness (lung disease), cardiovascular disease, spleen, stomach, hepatobiliary disease (digestive disease), nephrology, rheumatism, pediatrics, otolaryngology, acupuncture and preventive medicine center. Up to now, tens of thousands of patients have gone to the hospital to apply, and more than 2,000 application services have been provided for patients in the acupuncture department alone.

Dr. Xiang, director of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention of Jiangxi Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that the dog days are the yang in the year. At this time, the pores of human acupoints are completely opened, and drugs are most likely to penetrate into the body. By applying warm medicine on corresponding acupoints, the yang in the body is supported, and with the help of abundant yang in nature, the two are combined to dispel the cold in the body, so as to achieve the purpose of less or no disease in winter, such as asthma and chronic bronchitis. It can be seen that "three-volt patch" can undoubtedly improve human disease resistance and regulate human immunity.

It is suggested to Mei Feng that the three-volt patch should be continuous, because acupoint application therapy is not an acute attack therapy, and the focus of treatment is to prevent the recurrence of the disease. The symptoms of diseases susceptible to winter are not obvious in summer, or there are no symptoms at all, so the effect after treatment will not appear until winter. Some patients who go to the hospital with a try often give up continuing treatment after a course of treatment, which makes it difficult to judge the curative effect of the disease.

Treatment of winter diseases in summer generally requires continuous treatment for 3 years. Only by insisting on treatment according to the course of treatment can the curative effect be maintained, the channels and collaterals can be in a state of continuous excitement and tension, and the intensity and inertia can be maintained by eliminating evil spirits. And it is necessary to combine treatment with nourishing. Patients who receive the application for treating winter diseases in summer should pay attention to their diet and avoid being greedy for cold, so that the application treatment can achieve the best effect.
