However, yesterday, I read a report that insisting on taking Herba Lysimachiae and Herba Plantaginis gout tea for a period of time can also recuperate gout and make uric acid return to normal.
So on this Sunday morning, I couldn't help but want to put the originally planned content back and share this simple way to recuperate gout first.
I read the report that day yesterday, which introduced a gout patient named Zhou. One night a few years ago (I suspect it was early in the morning), he was suddenly awakened by the pain in his thumb. After that, he suffered from severe pain for a period of time, and finally he couldn't sleep. I went to the municipal hospital early the next day for treatment.
After some tossing, especially after checking the uric acid in the blood, it was confirmed that the uric acid value increased, and after X-ray examination, it was diagnosed as an acute attack of gout.
As expected, the doctor gave allopurinol and painkillers, which are common western medicines for gout, but they gradually improved after a few days.
This pain, coupled with my superficial or simply ignorant knowledge of hyperuricemia and gout, I still don't pay attention to my diet, and I have eaten foods with high purine content, and gout has recurred several times.
Every time gout attacks, let Mr. Zhou suffer once and suffer once.
Until one day three years later, Mr. Zhou once read in a book that both Lysimachia christinae and Plantago asiatica have diuretic, heat-clearing and detoxification effects, and said that these two teas are effective in treating gout after being decocted.
Mr. Zhou deeply remembers the side effects of taking allopurinol tablets.
Then, Mr. Zhou bought (very cheap) dried products of these two kinds of grass from the drugstore, and boiled them with water every morning as a day's tea.
If so, Mr. Zhou's gout actually gradually eased from then on until he recovered.
As we know, gout is a disease caused by the disorder of uric acid excretion (too much production or too little excretion) caused by abnormal purine metabolism in the body, and then precipitated in joints, tissues and organs in the form of sodium urate crystals, which caused the inflammatory reaction of foreign bodies in tissues.
If the treatment is not timely, it will lead to joint swelling, deformity, stiffness, ecchymosis and nodules around the joint, gouty kidney calculi, gouty renal failure and other complications, and even life-threatening.
Let's turn around and see if Lysimachia christinae and Plantago asiatica have any effect on gout.
Lysimachia christinae and Plantago asiatica have always been commonly used drugs for diuresis and lithagogue, which can promote uric acid excretion, inhibit and remove urate crystals, thus achieving the purpose of treating gout. It is effective for patients with early gout.
However, taking Herba Lysimachiae Christinae and Herba Plantaginis in large quantities for a long time may cause diuresis and potassium excretion, resulting in dizziness and palpitation. Therefore, drinking more water, controlling high purine food intake, improving diet structure and living habits, and strengthening resistance are still the prerequisites for treating gout, and we must never treat gout solely by drugs.
Then, my patient said that plantain can treat gout if it is drunk with old tea. I will share a medical record of treating gout with a prescription of plantain tomorrow. If you are interested, you can pay attention to Dr. Xiao Jiang, who is suffering from metabolic diseases.
