Chinese medicine generally does not directly treat liver function abnormalities, but rather relieves the associated symptoms through symptomatic treatment. Chinese medicine can treat related conditions such as jaundice and dystocia (pain in the area of the ribs and coats of arms).
The liver is one of the five organs. In Chinese medicine theory, the liver is responsible for draining and storing blood, and its physiological characteristics are that the liver qi is the main promoter of the liver, it likes to be organized but hates to be depressed, and it uses yin but uses yang. At the same time, the liver opening in the eye, in the body and tendon, its Hua in the claw, in the will for anger, in the liquid for tears. This is the generalization of Chinese medicine theory about the liver.
Abnormal liver function can be seen in jaundice, dystocia and other conditions, the first to identify the evidence, and then the selection of treatment. For example, for liver depression and Qi stagnation, add and subtract Chai Hu Shuo Liver San; for liver depression and spleen deficiency, add and subtract Free San; for liver and gallbladder damp-heat syndrome, add and subtract Long Guo Diarrhea Liver Tang; and for liver and kidney yin deficiency, add and subtract Nourishing Water Clearing Liver Drink combined with Turtle Armor Decoction Pill.
The adverse effects of the above prescriptions are not clear. If patients wish to treat liver dysfunction through Chinese medicine, it is recommended that they go to regular hospitals for consultation and treatment in time.
