As a traditional Chinese medicine, Chai Hu is known for its effects of evacuating fever, dispersing the liver and relieving depression, and elevating yang qi.
It is derived from the dried root of the Umbelliferae plant or the narrow-leafed Chaihu plant, and its effects include evacuating fever, dispersing the liver, relieving depression, and elevating yang qi. It is often used in the treatment of colds and fevers, cold and heat (the body is hot and cold at the same time), distension and pain in the chest and ribcage area, menstrual disorders, uterine prolapse and prolapse of the anus.
It should be noted that Chai Hu is ascending and dispersing in nature, so it should be avoided or used with caution in cases of yin deficiency and hyperactivity of yang, internal movement of liver wind, yin deficiency and fire, as well as those who are rebellious to qi.
In order to rationalize the use of medication, the selection of Chinese herbs is recommended to be carried out under the guidance of a Chinese doctor’s diagnosis, do not blindly use medication, so as not to use the wrong medication to cause bodily injury.
