Clinically, the symptoms of stomachache are often referred to as "epigastric pain" in traditional Chinese medicine. In modern medicine, gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer, chronic gastritis, gastroptosis, gastric neurosis, gastric mucosal prolapse and other diseases mostly belong to the category of "epigastric pain" in traditional Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine is generally divided into stomach cold, stomach heat and other syndromes.
The common clinical manifestation of stomach cold is that it often causes pain due to cold weather, feeling cold and eating cold, and the pain is accompanied by a feeling of coldness in the stomach, which relieves the symptoms of warming. Many patients with stomach diseases are afraid to eat raw and cold food, or when the weather gets cold and the temperature drops, they will have stomachache and diarrhea.
Symptoms of stomach cold are as follows:
1, stomachache
Symptoms of stomach pain will appear when stomach cold is severe. Especially in hot summer, do you feel pain when you eat cold food or cold drinks? The pain is accompanied by a cold feeling, but the symptoms will be alleviated after warming your stomach. This is the stomachache caused by stomach cold.
Step 2 vomit
Because the reverse peristalsis of esophagus, stomach or intestine is accompanied by strong spasm and contraction of abdominal muscles, the contents of esophagus and stomach are forced to be ejected from the nose and mouth. Through vomiting, the contents of the stomach and part of the small intestine will flow out of the mouth through esophageal reaction, and the harmful substances in the stomach will be excreted.
3. Abdominal pain
Abdominal pain refers to the pain below the epigastric cavity and above the pubic hairline, which is often paroxysmal and accompanied by a series of related symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and sweating.
4, aversion to cold
Just afraid of the cold, feel cold. Even if I put on clothes or cover the quilt indoors, or stay close to the fire to keep warm, I can't relieve the symptoms of being afraid of the cold.
Stomach cold syndrome is mostly caused by exogenous cold pathogen directly invading stomach fu-organs, or by overeating to produce cold, and cold pathogen stops gathering in stomach fu-organs. Stomach cold syndrome can be divided into stomach cold syndrome and stomach cold deficiency syndrome. ?
Stomach cold syndrome: mostly sudden onset, caused by abdominal cold or eating more fruit cold drinks, characterized by sudden cold pain in the stomach, severe pain, light mouth, no thirst, even headache, joint muscle pain, pale tongue and thick white fur. If the illness is mild, apply it externally with a hot water bag, or drink hot water or Jiang Shui, or take Jiawei Huoxiang Zhengqi Pill. If the illness is serious, it is necessary to use dried ginger, galangal, pepper, pepper and cassia twig to warm the yang and dispel the cold.
Syndrome of deficiency of stomach cold: a long illness period, clear or sour water in the mouth, tepid limbs, light mouth but not thirsty, clear urine, rancid stool, slight cold in the lower abdomen or careless diet will lead to aggravation of the disease and pale tongue with white fur. It is characterized by stomach pain, which lasts from mild to severe, and aggravates when it is cold. If hot water is applied, it will "cool down and relieve pain". For the syndrome of stomach cold deficiency and cold, some yang-warming drugs should be added on the basis of strengthening the spleen and regulating the stomach, such as dried ginger, pepper, pepper and cassia twig.
