Patient's question:
I am 36 years old this year, and recently I have been feeling unwell. During the day, I sometimes feel dizzy, and it has also affected my work. I can't sleep at night, and the medicine I took doesn't seem to help much. Could you please tell me why there is still some redness down there 20 days after giving birth?Doctor's answer:
In your case, the bleeding may be caused by qi deficiency failing to control blood. It is often due to prolonged illness, exhaustion, or spleen deficiency leading to qi deficiency. When qi is weak, it cannot properly regulate blood circulation, causing blood to overflow from blood vessels. Alternatively, chronic blood loss may deplete qi, turning it into qi deficiency that fails to hold blood.It is recommended to take a large dose of Astragalus root decoction to replenish qi and stop bleeding. If there is elevated intraocular pressure, surgical treatment is necessary. Otherwise, it may lead to blindness.
