At present, Strong Spleen and Weak Stomach is less common, usually Strong Stomach and Weak Spleen, with symptoms such as dry stools, frequent urination, abdominal distension and abdominal pain.
Strong Stomach and Weak Spleen syndrome, also known as Spleen Testimony syndrome, is caused by dryness and heat in the intestines and stomach, and insufficient fluid in the spleen. Chinese medicine believes that the spleen can help the stomach to transport fluid, but if there is dryness and heat in the stomach and intestines, which restricts the fluid, the fluid can’t be transported around, and only reaches the bladder, so there is frequent urination and dry stools.
The main manifestation of a strong stomach and a weak spleen is dry stools and frequent urination at the same time, accompanied by abdominal distension and abdominal pain, red tongue with yellow fur, and number of pulses. Under doctor’s guidance, treatment can be carried out by adding or subtracting Ma Zi Ren Wan to moisten the intestines and remove heat, and to move Qi and pass stools.
If strong stomach and weak spleen are suspected, it is recommended to ask the doctor for a clear diagnosis and treatment under the doctor’s guidance.
