Specific treatment for liver depression and phlegm-dampness should be determined by a medical professional, and commonly used medications include Yueju Pills and Hanxia Houpu Tang. Yue Ju Wan has the efficacy of promoting qi circulation and relieving depression, and is used to treat the six depression syndromes, which include chest and diaphragm constriction, distension and pain in the epigastrium (abdomen), ambiguous rotting and swallowing of acid (swallowing of acid from the stomach that rushes upward to the oropharynx), nausea and vomiting, and failure to eat and drink. The adverse reactions and contraindications of this formula are unclear. Hemixia Houpu Tang has the efficacy of promoting qi circulation and dispersing knots, lowering rebellious phlegm (correcting retrograde qi and removing phlegm from the body), and is used in the treatment of Prunus Mellitus Qi (similar to pharyngeal synesthesia), which is characterized by obstruction of the pharynx, unable to gag or vomit, unable to swallow, fullness of the chest and diaphragm, coughing or vomiting, and so on. If you see zygomatic redness (reddish cheekbones), bitterness in the mouth and red tongue with little moss, you should not use Hanxia Houpu Tang if you are suffering from qi depression and fire, or if you are suffering from yin injury with little fluids. In addition, we should develop good dietary habits in our daily life, focusing on light diet, avoiding spicy, stimulating and greasy food, paying attention to rest, ensuring sufficient sleep time, appropriate sports, and maintaining a good state of mind. When discomfort occurs, you should consult a doctor in a timely manner, and choose medication under the guidance of the physician’s diagnosis, not self-medication, so as not to delay the condition.
