First flavor: Atractylodes

This medicine strengthens the spleen and removes dampness, and is powerful. According to modern pharmacological research, Atractylodes contains a large amount of B vitamins. , a combination of Chinese and Western medicine, is the key to treating oral mucosa and cannot be replaced by Atractylodes.

Second flavor: Coptidis Coptidis

Coptidis Coptidis and Coptis Rhizoma are just the same word, but have different effects;

Coptis Rhizoma has a great heart-clearing effect, but it can dry out dampness. The effect of Coptidis Coptidis is not as good as that of Coptidis;

Stubborn oral ulcers are mostly caused by damp-heat or deficient fire. Coptis not only clears away heat and dries dampness, but also removes deficient heat and replenishes yin, similar to Phellodendron and Anemarrhena. This is consistent with the pathogenesis of oral ulcers.

The third flavor: cinnamon

Cinnamon has a pungent and sweet taste and is very hot in nature. Returns to the four meridians of kidney, spleen, heart and liver.

This medicine is a pure yang product. It is good at replenishing the fire of the gate of life and can lead the fire back to the origin.

Treating recurrent aphthous ulcers with cinnamon is intended to bring fire back to the original source, and the dose should be small.

The fourth flavor: Gallus gallus gallus

Gallus gallus gallinae can eliminate stagnation and strengthen the spleen and stomach. It can be used to treat fullness due to food accumulation, vomiting and nausea, diarrhea, malnutrition, thirst, drowning, sore throat, tooth decay and aphthous ulcers.

"Lu Chuan Materia Medica": promotes muscle growth and closes the mouth. Treat peptic ulcer.

For oral ulcers, adding Gallus gallus gallus gallus gallus gallus gallus gallus gallus gallinae on the basis of syndrome differentiation will have more effective effects. It is especially suitable for those with recurrent aphthous ulcers, indigestion, and spleen and stomach symptoms.

The mechanism may be that aphthous ulcers make it difficult to chew, making it difficult to digest food and affecting the function of the spleen and stomach, causing the spleen and stomach to become more deficient, making the stomach turbid and fumigating the mouth.

Therefore, chicken gizzard has the function of grinding grains and aiding digestion, so it can strengthen the spleen and stomach and treat aphthous ulcers. This medicine is indispensable.

The fifth flavor: turtle shell

Turtle shell nourishes yin and nourishes the kidneys, bringing fire back to its source. The late famous Chinese medicine doctor Zou Yunxiang was the best at using this medicine to treat oral ulcers, and his Daolong Guihai Decoction is a representative example;

I used it, and the effect was extraordinary. I cannot give up this medicine to treat this kind of disease. Don't use it just because it's expensive. Remember. Note:

Chronic refractory ulcers are difficult to treat and easy to relapse;

In my many years of clinical practice, I often use Gancao Xiexin Decoction and Marrow-Sealing Qianyang Dan based on the patient’s constitution. In the treatment of equal prescriptions, on the basis of selecting the main prescription, adding the above-mentioned special medicines as appropriate can significantly enhance the clinical efficacy.
