Chronic gastritis can be categorized as “gastric plaque” in Chinese medicine. Lei Gong Root, which refers to the Chinese medicine Centella asiatica, can clear heat and relieve dampness (removing heat and dampness from the body), and can be taken for gastric distress caused by dampness-heat obstruction (accumulation of dampness and heat to form a stagnant blockage), or cold-heat mismatch (simultaneous occurrence of both cold and heat symptoms in the same patient), but it should not be used alone, and is often used in conjunction with other traditional Chinese medicines. Centella asiatica is a Chinese herb that is pungent, bitter and cold in nature, and belongs to the liver, spleen and kidney meridians. Its effects are clearing heat and inducing dampness (removing heat and dampness from the body), detoxifying and subduing swelling, and it is mainly used in the treatment of damp-heat jaundice, heatstroke, diarrhea, as well as carbuncle, swelling, sores, bruises and other conditions. It should not be taken by people with deficiency and cold. Chronic gastritis can be attributed to the category of Chinese medicine “stomach rumpus”, the pathogenesis of stomach rumpus mainly has external evils, stagnation, phlegm dampness, stagnation of qi, body weakness, etc. If it is dampness-heat obstruction (dampness and heat evils gather to form stagnation) or cold-heat mismatch (cold and heat evidence appear at the same time in the same patient) caused by the stomach rumpus, it is possible to take Jiexuecao. However, it should not be used alone and is often used in conjunction with other herbs. It is recommended that when taking Centella asiatica, one should consult the doctor in detail and choose whether to take it or not according to the specific condition, and should not take it on one’s own. If you suffer from gastritis, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time.
