Prescription for the treatment of pulmonary nodules

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), lung nodules can be broadly categorized as “lung stagnation” and “accumulation”, etc. After identification by TCM, there are common symptoms such as qi stagnation and blood obstruction, blood stasis and stagnation within the blood, and positive deficiency and stasis obstruction, etc., and prescription drugs need to be chosen according to the specific symptoms. Chinese medicine alone may have limited effect in treating pulmonary nodules. 1. Qi stagnation and blood obstruction: the prescription mainly focuses on regulating qi and activating blood circulation, clearing collaterals and eliminating stagnation, and can be treated with Da Qi Tang. 2. Qi stagnation and blood stasis (blood stasis due to lack of circulation of qi): the main treatment is to remove blood stasis and soften the hardness, and it is often treated with the addition of diaphragm-under-diaphragm and blood-stasis-expelling tonics. 3. Positive deficiency and stagnation of blood: treatment should be based on tonifying qi and blood, activating blood circulation and eliminating blood stasis (promoting blood circulation and eliminating blood stasis in the body), and can be treated with Ba Zhen Tang and Hua Jie Pill with additions or subtractions. The above prescriptions should be used under the guidance of a professional Chinese medicine practitioner, and it is recommended that the patient consult a doctor in a timely manner to determine the specific pattern of the disease after identification by a Chinese medicine practitioner. The effect of Chinese medicine alone in treating pulmonary nodules may be limited. If you suffer from pulmonary nodules, it is recommended that you consult a doctor in a timely manner to identify the cause of the disease and then treat it.
