Hyperthyroidism patients will have symptoms such as shaking hands, thick neck, prominent eyes, palpitation, increased heart rate, hunger and sweating. Let's analyze why these symptoms occur.
The early symptoms of hyperthyroidism are liver stasis and liver fire, goiter, liver dominating the eyes, liver fire leading to bulging eyeball, liver fire leading to hunger, and liver fire leading to sweating, which is not asthenic sweating, but hot sweating, that is, sweating due to liver heat. It should be treated according to liver depression and liver fire, which is real heat. Radix Gentianae, Radix Rehmanniae, Scutellariae Radix Paeoniae Alba, Fructus Gardeniae and Flos Chrysanthemi can be used to eliminate phlegm and dissipate stagnation, and Radix Scrophulariae, Concha Ostreae and Prunella vulgaris can be added with the symptoms.
In the late stage, yin deficiency occurs due to intense heat and yin burning, such as hand shaking. Why hand shaking? Because the liver's main muscle lies in the claws, the liver blood and liver yin deficiency can't nourish the tendons, so hand shaking occurs. Why does the heart rate increase? That is, the heart self-regulation caused by heart yin injury and heart blood deficiency in the late stage of hyperthyroidism is caused by lack of heart blood, and sweating is also the gas caused by fluid instability after deficiency.
