1. Water-dampness trapping the spleen: patients may show generalized edema, chest tightness and abdominal distension, short urine, white and greasy tongue, etc., which is caused by water-dampness trapping and obstruction, leading to the spleen dysfunction, and can be treated with medicines to strengthen the spleen and dissolve the dampness, for example, Wu Pi Drink.
2. Spleen deficiency and dampness: patients may show obvious swelling below the waist, not easy to recover by pressing the depression, face color is not gorgeous, mental fatigue, etc., caused by the spleen’s deficiency and inability to transform the water, can be treated with medicines that strengthen the spleen and promote the flow of water, such as the solid spleen drink.
The patient should go to the hospital in time to consult the doctor, after clarifying the evidence type, then choose the appropriate drugs for treatment, not self-medication.
