It can be used in conditions such as deficiency of Liver-Blood, irregular menstruation, disharmony between Liver and Spleen (Liver and Spleen cannot work in harmony), pain in the chest and ribs, pain in the epigastrium (abdomen), contractural pain in the limbs, headache and dizziness. It is also contraindicated in cases of spontaneous sweating (involuntary sweating during the daytime, aggravated by sweating with slight movement), sweating in Yang deficiency, and in comatose patients. 2. Radix Paeoniae Alba has the efficacy of clearing heat and cooling blood (relieving blood heat by clearing heat), promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. This product can be used in treating warm-heat spots (spots and plaques on the skin caused by warm-heat poisonous evils invading the body), epistaxis (vomiting of blood and nosebleed due to blood-heat), redness and swelling of the eyes, carbuncle, swollen sores and ulcers, liver depression and coercive pain (pain in the area of coercion and ribs), menstrual cramps and dysmenorrhea, abdominal pain in the abdomen and bruises and injuries.
