Acne is considered as acne, wine thorn and lung wind acne in traditional Chinese medicine, commonly known as acne and whelk. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the cause of acne is heat in the body, but exogenous common cold.
It mainly includes five types:
Clinically, Chinese medicine often divides acne into five types: wind-heat in lung meridian, damp-heat in stomach and intestines, phlegm-dampness and blood stasis, irregular chong and ren, and phlegm-blood stasis and toxin stagnation.
Treatment of acne can be treated internally. Commonly used oral decoction (herbs), and some pills.
Of course, for acne, external treatment is simpler, safer and has less side effects. It can be used alone or combined with oral drugs, and has been widely used in the treatment of acne in traditional Chinese medicine.
Let me introduce the traditional Chinese medicine commonly used for external treatment of acne.
Commonly used lotions: Sanhuang Lotion and Inverted Powder Lotion.
For the ointment, Daihuang ointment is often used, which consists of Shā rotto Katakuri, indigo naturalis, rhubarb, phellodendron amurense and sulfur. After grinding, vaseline is added and mixed evenly to form the ointment.
Apply proper amount to the affected area every day, 1-2 times a day. Dai Huang Gao has the functions of clearing away heat and toxic materials, reducing swelling and resolving hard mass.
In addition, there are powders for external treatment of traditional Chinese medicine.
For example, the commonly used acne powder consists of rhubarb, coptis root, sulfur, angelica dahurica, ledebouriella root, etc., which are washed and dried, crushed into fine powder and mixed evenly.
Mix the medicinal powder, honey and warm water in a certain proportion to make paste, and apply it evenly on the face once a day.
There are also tinctures that can be used to treat acne, such as Coptidis Rhizoma, Cortex Phellodendri, Kochiae Fructus, Radix Sophorae Flavescentis, Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae, Scutellariae Radix, Saviae Miltiorrhizae Radix, Borneolum Syntheticum, Metronidazole, Raphani Semen, and Vitamin B6 (this is a prescription combining traditional Chinese medicine with western medicine, but most of them are composed of traditional Chinese medicines).
The above traditional Chinese medicines are ground, soaked in 60-40% ethanol solution for 7 days, and then filtered, and then the western medicines are ground, and the filtrate is melted and applied to the affected area.
It can sterilize and relieve itching, and generally treat inflammatory and pruritic acne. In addition, there are smear method, wet compress method and fumigation method.
Finally, there is a comprehensive therapy. Why comprehensive therapy?
We apply the traditional Chinese medicine with the functions of diminishing inflammation, relieving pain, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis to the face. The medicine can directly act on the damaged parts of the skin, effectively eliminate inflammation and accelerate the absorption of effective components.
It has the functions of clearing away damp-heat, promoting blood circulation, clearing away heat and toxic materials, so as to achieve the effects of removing blood stasis, promoting blood production, and removing heat, evil, sores and blood stasis.
In addition to the various dosage forms for external use made of traditional Chinese medicine as the main raw material, many people say that it is too complicated to make traditional Chinese medicine. Can there be a simpler method? There must be. We can use some Chinese patent medicines.
Because Chinese patent medicines are directly produced by many drug dealers, the advantage is that they are very convenient to use, such as Longzhu ointment, including musk, bezoar, borneol, pearl, borax, amber and so on.
This medicine can achieve the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, promoting blood circulation to reduce swelling, removing putrefaction and promoting granulation. So as to treat acne.
There is also compound Pianzhuang Ointment, which contains Notoginseng Radix, snake gall, bezoar and musk, and has a strong effect of clearing away heat and toxic materials, cooling blood and reducing swelling.
There is also Mei Lu Xiao CuO ointment, which consists of fresh aloe leaves, Sophora flavescens, rose, borneol and peppermint oil, and can clear away heat and toxic materials, kill insects and relieve itching, and moisturize and protect skin. Curcuma longa liniment is composed of Curcuma longa, Rhizoma Paridis, Radix Angelicae Sinensis, etc. It has the functions of clearing away heat and toxic materials, expelling wind and dampness, promoting blood circulation and eliminating acne.
I usually treat acne with comprehensive treatment of traditional Chinese medicine in clinic, that is, Chinese medicine decoction and herbal medicine are taken orally, plus external prescriptions are made into Chinese medicine mask, Chinese medicine powder, Chinese medicine lotion or Chinese medicine tincture, or daub.
Besides appealing, what I'm talking about also includes some other special therapies, mainly pricking collaterals and cupping.
Many studies show that after bloodletting, with the elimination of blood and the warming effect of cupping, we can promote blood circulation, which has a great effect on eliminating inflammation and eliminating harmful substances, and has a good effect on treating acne with heat, toxin and phlegm stasis syndrome.
I usually choose Dazhui (which is the meeting of three Yang Du Meridians) and lung and stomach to clear the heat of lung and stomach.
I will also use the fire needle treatment. Fire needle is a traditional treatment.
Because it has the functions of warming channels and relieving pain, dredging channels and activating collaterals, it can be used to treat nodular and cystic acne, and it has the immediate effect of opening the door to eliminate evil spirits, inducing heat to go out, reducing swelling and eliminating evil spirits.
Therefore, fire needle has a very good effect on this disease. Then, eating fire is a surge of heat, which consumes qi, blood, yin and yang, and at the same time affects vital qi, which is often mixed with good and evil.
It is difficult to cure the disease if it is only treated with bitter and cold traditional Chinese medicine with heat-clearing and detoxification, but fire needle has the dual effects of acupuncture and moxibustion.
It can promote the circulation of qi and blood, encourage healthy qi, eliminate sepsis, and disperse the pathogenic fire, so as to achieve the purpose of promoting blood circulation, promoting qi circulation, expelling evil and detoxifying.
You can also use the method of scraping. Scraping is mainly at the acupoints where the spine is clamped. Generally, it is scraped from top to bottom or from inside to outside, mainly at Du meridian and bladder meridian, and it is usually done once a week.
Scraping can't be done too many times, otherwise it will damage the righteousness. It is generally recommended to do it once a week.
You can also use the method of pressing beans at ear points to regulate viscera and dredge meridians, so that the body environment can reach a new balance, thus treating skin diseases on the face. Generally, endocrine, subcortical, sympathetic, and of course, follow-up addition and subtraction.
