Cancer is generally referred to as “cancerous disease” in Chinese medicine. Liver qi stagnation may cause cancer if it remains in the body for a long time, but it should be judged under the guidance of a doctor’s diagnosis and in combination with modern medical tests.
Liver qi stagnation can lead to dysfunction of internal organs, abnormal operation of qi, blood and fluid; if qi does not work, blood will not work, which will result in pathological changes such as qi stagnation, blood stasis, etc., which will be accumulated in internal organs and fight with each other, and will gradually accumulate and develop in the course of time. The treatment should be to dredge the liver and move qi, eliminate blood stasis and resolve depression.
It can be given as combination of Huanjiu Pill and Yueju Pill with addition and subtraction. The former formula activates blood circulation and removes blood stasis, softens hardness and eliminates accumulation; the latter formula relieves qi and resolves depression. In the formula, Xiang Fu and Betel nut promote blood circulation; San Ling, Curcuma, Coriolus Versicolor, Wuling Zhi, Chuan Xiong activate blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis, promote Qi circulation and eliminate symptoms (eliminating abdominal lumps); fried malt and Shen Qu eliminate food and promote Qi circulation.
If there is any discomfort, it is recommended to actively seek medical advice and standardize the diagnosis and treatment under the guidance of a professional Chinese medicine practitioner, so as to avoid delaying the condition.
