Patient's question:
Because I always feel that the side effects of Western medicine are too great, so I want to switch to traditional Chinese medicine to treat my hepatitis, but I don't know how to treat it well, so I want to ask how traditional Chinese medicine and Chinese herbal medicine should be used to treat hepatitis?Doctor's answer:
Because I always feel that the side effects of Western medicine are too great, so I want to switch to traditional Chinese medicine to treat my hepatitis, but I don't know how to treat it better. The main cause of hepatitis is a deficiency of vital Qi. Due to irregular diet and moral neglect, the spleen and stomach have been damaged, unable to transform dampness, leading to internal damp-heat. This damp-heat then obstructs the spleen and damages the liver, causing disharmony in the liver, gallbladder, and stomach. This further exacerbates the damage to vital Qi, resulting in the recurrence of hepatitis. In fact, having hepatitis is not terrible at all. Patients should believe that they can overcome the disease. As long as it is detected early and timely treatment is provided, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high.
