Gout is a painful, red and swollen joint disorder that has its roots in disorders of purine metabolism, both primary and secondary. In ancient times, the name of gout was also known, and Zhu Danxi, a famous physician in the Jin and Yuan dynasties, clearly proposed the name of gout, which was discussed in many of his works and had far-reaching effects. The chapter of “Danxi Xinfać»Gout” says: “Gout and pain has a common place, the pain is red, swollen and burning, or deep body heat.” “Pain in the bones and joints, day and night, like a tiger rodent.” A vivid description of the symptoms of gout, which is very similar to the modern description of gout disease. Zhu Danxi believes that gout belongs to the category of paralysis in traditional Chinese medicine, but is different from the history of gout. For the etiology of gout, Zhu Danxi has recognized that there are causes such as cold and wetness, and Zhu believes that “the gout is caused by the blood getting hot and boiling, followed by cold water, or standing on wet ground, or fan to get cool, or lying in the wind, cold and cold outside the fight, hot blood gets cold, dirty and clotted, so it is painful, and at night it is painful.” He also recognized that the patient had a special pathological product of “foul and clammy” and stagnant veins. Zhu Danxi is an advocate of the “damp-heat theory”, so in the treatment of gout, he proposed the treatment principle of “using pungent and hot agents to disperse cold and dampness, develop the couples, and allow the blood to flow”. My teacher, Professor Zhu Liangchun, a master of Chinese medicine, has studied gout in depth and has analyzed in detail the classics and the hundred schools of thought on gout, and in his long-term clinical practice, he has explored and thought about the name of “turbid stasis paralysis”. The name of the disease is the same as that of modern Western medicine, but the concept is different, and the disease referred to is not necessarily the gout of modern medicine. If this is the diagnosis, it is easy to confuse Chinese and Western medicine. According to Dr. Zhu, gouty arthritis is most often seen in middle-aged and elderly people, with a rich body, or a history of alcohol consumption, and a preference for fatty and oily foods. Cold and dampness is one of the causes, but not the main cause, the main pathogenesis is dampness and stagnation of internal obstruction, and this dampness and stagnation is not outside, but inside. Because the patient is mostly plump with phlegm and dampness, and has a taste for alcohol and bites, it leads to the dysfunction of the internal organs and the lack of power to ascend and descend the dampness, because of which the phlegm and dampness are stagnant in the blood vessels and difficult to drain and transform, and the blood is combined with the dampness and stagnation, which is closed in the meridians, then the bones and joints are swollen and painful, the nodes are deformed, and even ulcerated and overflowing with fat. Or it may cause pain in the back and blood in the urine at first, and then congestion in the three jiao in the long run, resulting in nausea and vomiting, dizziness, palpitations, little urination, itching, epistaxis, and so on, and even “Guange”. In other words, “gouty nephropathy” leading to kidney failure. All of these are caused by internal obstruction of turbid stasis, not by external wind, so it is called “turbid stasis paralysis”. Zhu’s theory of “turbid stasis paralysis” was developed in the 1980s, which is related to the reform and opening up of China, the continuous improvement of people’s living standard, the gradual change of the diet structure, and the change of the cause of the disease. This theory and the name of the disease are an innovation of the gout theory and a development in inheritance, which provides a valuable basis for the clinical research of the disease and guides the clinical treatment of gouty arthritis. Based on this theory and etiology, the treatment of gout was established, that is, “to drain and dissolve turbid stasis”, and add and subtract from the evidence. So that the turbidity and stagnation can be gradually removed and the blood uric acid can be reduced, thus restoring the function of clearing and secretion of turbidity and making it healthy. The “gout formula” used: Fu Ling, Dioscorea, Coix Seed, Wei Ling Xian, Ze Lan, Ze Di, Gentiana Macrophyllae are good medicines to drain and detoxify the turbidity and blood stasis, together with Red Peony, Ground Turtle Worm, Tao Ren, Di Long and other products to activate blood circulation and resolve blood stasis, can promote the drainage of turbidity and dissolve the stasis, push the old to the new, enhance the effectiveness, can significantly improve the symptoms and reduce the concentration of blood uric acid.
