cancer

Cancer is characterized by abnormal masses in viscera (leukemia is abnormal proliferation of white blood cells in bone marrow and other hematopoietic tissues). The occurrence of mass is mostly due to the interweaving of qi stagnation, phlegm coagulation, dampness stagnation, blood stasis and toxic knot, which accumulate over time and become a tangible mass. Cancer patients' constitution is deficient and cold, and cancer lesions consume qi, blood and body fluids. In the middle and late stage, patients often have pathogenesis changes such as deficiency of both qi and blood and deficiency of both yin and yang.

Overview of TCM pathogenesis of nine kinds of cancer

The main pathogenesis is as follows:

1. Qi stagnation: Emotional discomfort, eating disorders, exogenous pathogens, phlegm and blood stasis can all lead to qi stagnation. Due to qi stagnation and disorder of qi and blood circulation, the diseased organs or parts appear fullness and pain.

2. Phlegm coagulation: Endogenous phlegm can be caused by exogenous or internal injury, such as lung fluid loss, spleen fluid loss and kidney distilled water loss. The clinical manifestations are varied and the lesion sites are different. In this chapter, cough, expectoration, sputum nuclei and lumps are its characteristics.

3. Dampness stagnation: due to various reasons such as exogenous or internal injury, the lung, spleen and kidney function are out of balance, and the metabolism of water and fluid is damaged, so that body fluid stops gathering and suffers from water dampness. There are many clinical manifestations according to different lesion sites. This chapter is characterized by the changes of spleen and stomach caused by water-dampness trapped in middle energizer, such as loss of appetite, anorexia, abdominal distension and diarrhea.

4. Blood stasis: A variety of reasons, such as emotional discomfort, eating disorders, exogenous pathogens, falls, long illness, etc., can all lead to blood stasis. Because the blood circulation is not smooth, even the veins are not smooth, it hurts when blocked, causing pain, or inhibiting fever, which accumulates over time. In this chapter, the product block is its outstanding feature.

5. Aggregation of toxic pathogens: due to exogenous heat pathogens, or endogenous pathological products such as phlegm coagulation, dampness stagnation and blood stasis, the stagnation of qi turns into heat for a long time, or internal and external pathogens are combined, and excessive heat pathogens become toxic. Excessive heat pathogen causes fever, forcing blood to rush to any place to bleed, and phlegm congeals and stagnates and stagnates blood stasis, so it can form lumps.

6. Qi deficiency: mainly eating disorders, Shui Gu is not refined, and the gas source is insufficient; Or due to serious illness, old age, weakness, fatigue, weakened visceral function, lack of qi and blood. Due to the lack of healthy qi, it can not normally play the role of promoting qi circulation, strengthening the body and warming the body, but it is manifested as fatigue, mental fatigue, spontaneous sweating, and easy to catch a cold.

7. Blood deficiency: It is often caused by excessive blood loss, spleen and stomach weakness, malnutrition, prolonged illness and blood metaplasia. Due to insufficient blood, the viscera and meridians are not nourished, and the symptoms are dizziness, fatigue, sallow complexion and disgraceful lips and nails.

8. Yin deficiency: dryness-heat impairs yin, or chronic illness impairs kidney Yuan Yin. Due to the deficiency of yin essence, it has lost the function of nourishing the viscera, meridians and bones, so there are symptoms such as dry mouth, dry lips and dry skin, while yin deficiency leads to hyperactivity of yang, so there are symptoms such as five upset, fever and night sweats.

9. Yang deficiency: mostly due to the further development of qi deficiency and disharmony between qi and yang. Due to the deficiency of yang, it is lost in warmth, which is manifested as mental fatigue, inability to lie down, qi deficiency and laziness, cold form and cold limbs.

2. Promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis

The basic pharmacological effects of this kind of traditional Chinese medicine have two points: weakening platelet aggregation and adhesion (making it difficult for cancer cells to stay, aggregate and plant in the blood (thus reducing blood metastasis).

The main Chinese medicines are centipede, honeycomb, Mylabris, Salvia Miltiorrhiza, Draco, Hirudo, Dysosma versicolor, rhubarb, Lithocarpus, sheep's hoof, cowherb seed, Impatiens balsamina, Curcuma zedoaria, Rhizoma Sparganii, Folium Perillae, Semen Strychni, Radix Clematidis, Radix Paeoniae Rubra and so on.
