Treatment mechanism: "Sheng Ji Zong Lu·Kou Te Men" says: "Aphthous ulcers are caused by heat in the heart and spleen, and the qi rushes to the upper burns, re-eating the mouth and tongue, and pretending to be sores." The disease initially starts in the heart and spleen, but after a long time If the disease does not heal or cannot be cured after long-term treatment, the disease is in the kidneys.

Either due to accumulation of heat in the heart and spleen, excessive heat damages yin, and long-term illness affects the kidneys; or due to excessive use of bitter, cold, and fire-reducing products during treatment, excessive attack, consuming qi and damaging yin, and the deficiency fire becomes more intense; or due to alcohol, sex, and strain, the element is Liver and kidney deficiency.

The organs affected by insomnia due to yin deficiency and excess fire are mainly the heart and kidneys. According to the Five Elements Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the heart belongs to fire, and the kidneys belong to water. Water can control fire. Under physiological conditions, the water in the kidneys supports the fire in the heart, so that the fire in the heart does not become too strong and disturb the mind. Frequent staying up late, excessive sexual intercourse, and the gradual decline of kidney qi in old age, etc., lead to insufficient kidney water to control fire, and heart fire will become excessive, disturbing the mind. Kidney yin deficiency and heart fire are strong, and yin and yang are not harmonious, resulting in insomnia.
