There is no such thing as drinking anything to dispel dampness to see quick results. You can use Chinese medicines such as Xianglian Pills, Dampness Dispelling Granules and Wu Ling Capsules to dispel dampness. Specific efficacy varies from person to person, and identification and treatment is more effective.
1. Xianglian Pill: It has the effect of clearing heat and drying dampness, moving qi and relieving pain (relieving pain by regulating the body’s qi), so it can be used to treat diarrhea and abdominal pain as well as symptoms such as yellow and sticky stools. Pregnant women should be cautious.
2. Heat-clearing and Dampness-eliminating Granules: It has the effect of eliminating dampness and clearing heat, benefiting qi and generating fluids (promoting the production of fluids by tonifying qi). It is used for the fatigue of limbs, loss of appetite, body heat and dry mouth caused by summer dampness. It is not recommended for diabetic patients.
3. Wu Ling Capsule: It has the efficacy of warming yang and transforming qi (warming yang qi in the body), and also has the efficacy of inducing dampness and promoting the flow of water. It can be used for the treatment of oedema caused by yang’s lack of transforming qi (the body’s qi is blocked), and the internal stagnation of dampness (dampness stays in the body). Symptoms include dysuria (unsmooth urination), edema and abdominal distension, vomiting and diarrhea, and thirst.
The adverse effects of the above drugs are not known. Avoid spicy, greasy food. It is contraindicated for those who are allergic to the drug, and should be used with caution by those with allergies.
Before taking the drug, you need to be guided by a doctor to identify the evidence, and you can not take the drug on your own, so as not to cause adverse effects on the body. You can also follow the doctor’s instructions to choose acupuncture, massage and other ways of treatment.
