Gout treatment
Chinese patent medicine treatment:
Mechanism of drug action: the first group of drugs: Polygonum cuspidatum, Cinnamomum camphora root, Touguxiang, Rhizoma Sparganii, Lycopodium japonicum, Caulis Sargentodoxae, Buxus macrophylla.
① From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, Polygonum cuspidatum, Cinnamomum camphora root, Touguxiang, Rhizoma Sparganii, Lycopodium, Caulis Sargentodoxae, and Sanguis Draxonis have the comprehensive effects of clearing away damp heat, clearing away heat and toxic materials, dredging collaterals, reducing swelling and relieving pain. Playing a role in the main clinical symptoms of gout can not only alleviate the main pathogenic factor of gout-damp-heat toxin, but also eliminate the symptoms such as joint pain, numbness of limbs, joint swelling and deformation caused by damp-heat toxin in joint veins, and play a role in activating collaterals, dredging arthralgia and relieving pain.
② Explain in common language: The acute attack of gout in the chronic phase and acute phase is mainly manifested as swelling and severe pain of toes and ankles, and in severe cases, it can develop into severe symptoms such as numbness of limbs and joint deformation. From a medical point of view, these symptoms appear because of the abnormal metabolic function of human body, which leads to the non-nutritive substances in normal diet (specifically uric acid in gout) not being excreted normally and becoming a disease. The medicine Polygonum cuspidatum, Cinnamomum camphora root, Caulis et Folium Gaultheriae Yunnanensis, Herba Lycopodii, Caulis Sargentodoxae and Sanguis Draxonis contained in Compound Jinshen Capsule can comprehensively exert their functions of clearing away damp-heat, clearing away heat and toxic materials, dredging collaterals, relieving swelling and pain, and can digest and dissolve the main factor "damp-heat toxin" that causes gout, and also can eliminate joint pain, limb swelling and numbness caused by non-nutritive substances accumulated in joints, thus promoting blood circulation, dredging collaterals and stopping arthralgia.
The second group of drugs: Touguxiang, Lycopodium, and Caulis Sargentodoxae.
① Touguxiang, Lycopodium, and Caulis Sargentodoxae penetrate into veins, bones, joints, etc. Search and remove the deposited toxic pathogens, and play a role in gently and slowly melting uric acid deposition stones.
The third group of drugs: Poria, Alisma orientalis, Caulis Sargentodoxae, and Lycopodium.
① Poria cocos, Alisma orientalis, Caulis Sargentodoxae and Lycopodium japonicum have diuretic effects, which can dispel dampness and induce diuresis. From the point of view of traditional Chinese medicine, the above-mentioned drugs can excrete damp-heat toxins deposited in gout patients through urination, the first group of drugs dissolved damp-heat toxins, and the second group of drugs accumulated damp-heat toxins in joints and bones.
② Poria cocos, Alisma orientalis, Caulis Sargentodoxae and Lycopodium can rapidly excrete the excess uric acid deposited in the body due to poor metabolism. It can also play a role in eliminating excess uric acid that is decomposed again in the blood due to the dissolution of uric acid stones by drugs.
The fourth group of drugs: Poria, Touguxiang, Caulis Sargentodoxae and Rhizoma Polygoni Cuspidati.
① Chinese yam, Poria cocos, Touguxiang, Caulis Sargentodoxae, Polygonum cuspidatum and other drugs have comprehensive effects of nourishing liver and kidney, benefiting spleen and stomach, strengthening waist and knees, regulating qi and relieving pain, and promoting blood circulation to break blood stasis, and have dual effects of treating and preventing the deterioration of gout.
Generally speaking, Chinese yam, Poria cocos, Touguxiang, Hongteng, Polygonum cuspidatum and other drugs comprehensively regulate the metabolism of liver and kidney and the digestive function of spleen and stomach through their functions of nourishing liver and kidney, enhancing the function of spleen and stomach, strengthening waist and knees, regulating qi and relieving pain. Therefore, the physiological function of human body is gradually restored to normal state, and the self-excretion mechanism of uric acid metabolism in gout patients is reconstructed, so that patients can excrete uric acid in their diet through their own liver and kidney metabolism and spleen and stomach digestion.

Vitamin b 1 1.39 mg, vitamin b20.92 mg, vitamin c 163 mg, nicotinic acid 12.6 mg, calcium 635 mg, iron 20.2 mg, zinc 12.5 mg and selenium 34.0 mg.
Principles of treatment of gout
Diet should be moderate during holidays, especially don't eat too much food with high purine content such as aquatic products. In the past, people often felt pain in their ankles and knees after eating fish, shrimp and other delicious foods. When they went to the hospital for examination, the uric acid content in their blood increased significantly and they were diagnosed as gout.
Gout is a systemic chronic metabolic disease, which is caused by abnormal purine metabolism in the body and increased uric acid, a metabolite of purine in the blood. Gout can't be cured once it happens, so the best way to prevent it is to check the blood uric acid concentration regularly (once every 3 months). Once the blood uric acid is found to exceed the normal value, you should take uric acid-lowering drugs. As long as hyperuricemia is well controlled, gout will not happen. The general principle of treating gout is:
1) Reasonable diet control;
2) Take enough water;
3) Life should be regular;
4) Appropriate participation in sports activities;
5) Take effective medication;
6) Regular physical examination.
In order to prevent gout, three more and three less should be done in diet:
1 Drink more water and less soup. People with high blood uric acid and gout should drink more boiled water and less broth, fish soup, chicken soup and hot pot soup. The osmotic pressure of boiling water is most beneficial to dissolve various harmful substances in the body. Drinking more boiled water can dilute uric acid, accelerate excretion and reduce uric acid level. Soup contains a lot of purine components, which can not dilute uric acid, but lead to an increase in uric acid.
Eat more alkaline food and less acidic food. Gout patients themselves have purine metabolism disorder and abnormal uric acid. If they eat too much acidic food, it will aggravate their illness and is not conducive to rehabilitation. Eating more alkaline foods will help to supplement potassium, sodium and chloride ions and maintain acid-base balance.
Eat more vegetables and eat less. Eating more vegetables helps to reduce purine intake, increase vitamin C and increase cellulose. Eating less is beneficial to control calorie intake, limit weight and lose weight and fat.
Patients with acute gouty arthritis should avoid high purine foods, such as yeast, pancreas, concentrated gravy, bacon, sardines, anchovies and animal hearts. You can eat grapes, oranges, hawthorn, tomatoes, apples, coffee, tea, milk, eggs, seaweed and other low-purine alkaline foods. Never drink beer.
Gout diet prescription
Wind-resistant red carrot
Who is Sun Simiao in Daughter's Prescription? Dietotherapy "is a special topic in" Eating Words ",which holds that" eating "is the foundation of health preservation and that" dietotherapy "is the first choice for treating diseases. Because although drugs can cure diseases, the harm caused by long-term and large-scale use of drugs to the human body is even more worrying. Gout is a disease caused by improper diet, so it is good for forensic doctors who can use diet.
Benefits of Radish for Gout Patients
Radish is a cruciferous herb, also known as radish, and its seeds, fresh roots and leaves can be used as medicine. Radish is sweet, white radish is flat, green radish is slightly cold, and carrot is slightly warm. Entering the lung and stomach meridian, it has the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, promoting diuresis and removing blood stasis, invigorating stomach and promoting digestion, resolving phlegm and relieving cough, regulating qi, relaxing bowels, promoting fluid production to quench thirst, tonifying middle energizer and calming nerves. There are many kinds of radishes, which are better eaten raw and less spicy.
Radish is an alkaline food, which contains a lot of water and vitamins, and it is a vegetable that basically contains no purine. Don? Meng Wei said: Radish is "good for joints"; Dietary Materia Medica holds that radish can "publicize the atmosphere, dispel pathogenic heat and facilitate defecation"; "Fun Life Diet Spectrum" also says that it can "keep out the cold". Radish raw food also contains a lot of vitamin C and rich potassium salt, which can alkalize blood and have diuretic effect. Gout still belongs to the category of arthralgia syndrome in traditional Chinese medicine, so radish is suitable for gout patients. Therefore, gout patients eat more radishes to help them recover.
1. Female carrots are rich in more than ten kinds of beneficial active enzymes such as glucoamylase, catalase, amylase and glucoamylase, which can promote metabolism and help digestion. At the same time, it also contains glucose, oxidase gland, pentose, gasified mucin, histidine and choline. These substances can quickly promote the metabolism of purine and other substances, and quickly reduce the metabolic burden of liver and kidney.
2. The content of potassium, phosphorus, calcium, selenium and other substances contained in "Fangfenghong" is several times or even dozens of times that of ordinary radish. Potassium, phosphorus and calcium are all important substances involved in the acid-base balance of human body, which can effectively balance the blood uric acid concentration. As we all know, potassium can regulate the appropriate osmotic pressure in cells and the acid-base balance of body fluids, and participate in the metabolism of intracellular sugar and protein, which is very beneficial to patients with gout and diabetes.
3. "Anti-wind Red" also contains plant natural estrogen. The male-female ratio of gout patients is 20: 1. The main reason for the low incidence of gout in women is that estrogen in women can promote uric acid excretion and inhibit the onset of arthritis. "Anti-wind Red" female carrots are rich in natural plant estrogen, which has the advantages of non-artificial, pure natural, safety and no side effects, and is of great benefit to gout patients.
cherry
Peaches are rich in anthocyanins, anthocyanidins and vitamin E, and are very effective antioxidants. They can promote blood circulation, help uric acid excretion and relieve discomfort caused by gout and arthritis. In particular, anthocyanins in cherries are very effective in eliminating muscle soreness and inflammation. A study by the University of Michigan found that anthocyanins in cherries can reduce the risk of inflammation, and eating 20 cherries is more effective than taking aspirin. Generally, patients with gout or arthritis can reduce swelling and relieve pain within a few days after eating cherries. People who face computer work for a long time often have headaches and muscle aches. Eating more cherries can also alleviate or eliminate these symptoms.
Fresh cherries have been on the market for a short time, so they can't often eat fresh fruits. But patients who choose to take cherry wine can still promote blood circulation and relieve pain. For cherry soaking wine, it is advisable to choose low-alcohol grain fermented wine, such as rice wine, yellow wine and sorghum wine (about 40 degrees). Cherry wine is stored in a dark and cool place, and generally can be stored for 8 months to 1 year without deterioration. When cherry is produced every year, patients can choose cherry to soak in wine.
Methods: The ratio of cherry to wine is generally 1: 10, that is100g of cherry100ml of wine. Cherry can be drunk after soaking in wine 1 week, and 20 ml in the morning and 20 ml in the evening. When the pain is not too severe, you can only drink 25 ml at night. When the wine is almost finished, you can add some wine and soak it again
Note: Although cherry wine has a good effect on relieving joint pain, it can never replace the necessary drug treatment. Use with caution in patients with hypertension.
