Many patients who have been deaf for a long time have taken drugs that nourish the liver and kidneys, such as "Hearing Deaf Zuo Ci Pills", but their deafness has not been cured. "Hearing Deaf Zuo Ci Pills" is a commonly used drug used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat liver and kidney yin deficiency, causing tinnitus and deafness. When talking about the efficacy, as the patient said, he himself took nearly ten boxes and had no effect at all. No. This was obviously due to an incorrect diagnosis, which resulted in incorrect treatment and ineffective treatment.

In fact, there are many causes of deafness. In addition to replenishing the liver and kidneys and clearing away liver and gallbladder fire, treatment methods such as removing blood stasis in the blood vessels in the ear should also be considered. Wang Qingren said in "Yilin Correction": "The small tube in the ear hole leads to the brain, and there is blood stasis outside the tube. The tube is closed by squeezing, so the deafness occurs."

Tongqiao Huoxue Decoction is a very good prescription. , it is clinically used to treat deafness where various drugs are ineffective, and the effect is remarkable. What is strange is that there are not many users of such a good prescription, and few patients know about it. Instead, most people use Chinese patent medicines such as "Deafness Pills", "Bushen Yinao Pills", "Longdan Xiegan Pills", and even "Liuwei Dihuang Pills" to treat deafness. Presumably it is because the above medicines are readily available in pharmacies and highly recommended by store clerks, or some patients are unwilling to go to the hospital for medical treatment, so they do not know that the doctor has this magical prescription of Tongqiao Huoxue Decoction.

The "Tongqiao Huoxue Decoction" I am talking about comes from "Yi Lin Correction of Mistakes" written by Wang Qingren, a famous doctor in the Qing Dynasty. Wang Qingren is unique in the treatment of blood stasis syndrome, hemiplegia and other diseases. His prescriptions for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, such as Buyang Huanwu Decoction, Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction, Shaofu Zhuyu Decoction, etc., are still used in clinical TCM. , all have very high therapeutic value, and are often used with miraculous effects on many difficult and complicated diseases.

The prescription composition of Tongqiao Huoxue Decoction is:

One penny of red peony root (3 grams) One penny of Ligusticum chuanxiong (3 grams)

Three pennyworts of peach kernel ground into puree ( 6g) Three qian of safflower (9g)

Three qian of green onions chopped, three qian of fresh ginger chopped (9g)

Seven pitted red dates, five centimeters of musk in a silk bag (0.15g)

For the decoction method, use half a catty of rice wine. Except for musk, fry the other seven flavors for one hour. After removing the residue, put the musk into the wine, boil it again, and then lie down. Clothes. Adults eat three meals for three nights in a row, and three meals every other day; children aged seven or eight eat one meal every two nights; children aged three or two eat one meal every three nights. Musk can be fried three times and replaced with new ones.

In terms of efficacy, the red peony root in the prescription is sour and astringent, can relieve blood stasis and relieve pain, cool blood and reduce swelling; Ligusticum chuanxiong has pungent and warm properties, can activate blood circulation and qi, dispel wind and relieve pain; peach kernel has a sweet and sweet taste. Bitter, it can break blood and remove blood stasis, moisturize the intestines and relieve constipation; safflower is pungent and warm in nature, can activate blood circulation and stimulate menstruation, dissipate blood stasis and relieve pain; musk is pungent and warm in nature, can awaken the mind, activate blood circulation and stimulate menstruation, reduce swelling and relieve pain; rice wine can The medicine has ascending properties, activates blood circulation and dredges meridians, dispels wind and dissipates cold, and has good medicinal effect; fresh ginger has a pungent taste, can induce sweating, relieve the exterior, dissipate cold and detoxify, and relieve phlegm; green onion has a pungent flavor, can induce sweating, relieve the exterior and dispel cold; jujube It is sweet and warm in nature, can relieve and harmonize, can replenish qi and blood, and has the function of harmonizing various medicines.

In terms of medicinal properties, the combination of safflower and peach kernels in the prescription is used to remove blood stasis. Ligusticum chuanxiong is also a qi medicine in the blood. When combined with safflower and peach kernels, it can promote qi and activate blood circulation, which can strengthen the Safflower and peach kernel can activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, while red peony root has a sour taste. When used in combination, it can relieve the pungent and warm nature of other drugs, and can also reduce blood stasis and swelling. These four drugs can be combined with musk to enhance the effect of musk on opening up the orifices.

In terms of the compatibility of the whole prescription, the monarch drug is musk, the minister drugs are peach kernel, safflower, red peony root, and Chuanxiong. The adjuvant drugs are fresh ginger and green onion, which are pungent and warm, and the adjuvant drug is jujube. , to reconcile various medicines, plus yellow rice wine for promoting blood circulation and dredging collaterals. Therefore, when the whole prescription is used together, it has the functions of clearing the orifices, activating blood circulation, dispersing blood stasis and dredging collaterals.

This recipe is called Tongqiao Huoxue Decoction. As the name suggests, "Tongqiao" refers to the seven orifices of the human body such as the mouth, ears, nose, and eyes. Among the seven orifices, most of them are on the head. The prescription also uses yellow rice wine that carries medicine to ascend. It is said that "half a catty of rice wine can be more or less." Therefore, this prescription is mainly used to treat diseases in the head of our body.

The song says:

Clearing the orifice depends entirely on good musk, pink jujube, green onions and ginger,

Chuanxiong, yellow wine and red peony are the first prescription for stimulating menstruation from the outside and inside. .

It shows that whether the therapeutic effect of this prescription is good or not depends entirely on whether the musk is good or not.

But natural musk is now as expensive as 800-1,000 yuan/gram. A single dose of medicine costs hundreds of yuan, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Professor Peng Jian, a famous doctor in central Hunan, based on his many years of clinical experience, used nine-scented worms instead of musk, and the curative effect is also very good. Another contemporary famous doctor, Gong Shicheng, used 8 grams of Angelica dahurica and 6 grams of Acorus calamus instead of musk. It is said that the medicinal effect is also quite good.

Wang Qingren said in "Yi Lin Correction": "Take this prescription in the evening and Tongqi Powder in the morning, two times a day, and the deafness can be cured in three to twenty years."

According to this, when diagnosed with qi stagnation and blood stasis type, Tongqiao Huoxue Decoction can be used alone, or combined with Tongqi Powder, and the therapeutic effect will often be miraculous.

Tongqi Powder: 30 grams each of Bupleurum and Cyperus rotunda, 15 grams of Ligusticum chuanxiong, grind it into powder. Take 9 grams each time with boiled water in the morning.

Note that this prescription is mainly used to treat blood stasis syndrome. Headache, dizziness, long-term deafness, hair loss, rosacea, and vitiligo. The tongue is dark or has ecchymosis or petechiae. Clinically, it is often used to treat vascular headaches, acute cerebrovascular disease, concussion and its sequelae, narcolepsy, alopecia, allergic purpura, chronic urticaria, erythema multiforme, etc., which are blood stasis on the head and face.

Because the musk in this prescription has strong channeling power, pregnant women and the elderly and infirm should use it with caution.
