Patient's question:
I am 34 years old. Recently, for some reason, I have been feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit. My stomach has been, sometimes with symptoms of burning and acid reflux. I went to the hospital, and it was treated for a while, but it started again. What is the TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) treatment for abdominal pain?Doctor's answer:
If using Traditional Chinese Medicine to diagnose abdominal pain, the first step is to distinguish between cold and heat. If there is sudden, severe pain, it is usually a symptom of excess heat. If the pain is gradual and dull, it is likely a symptom of deficiency cold. If the pain is needle-like, it is likely a symptom of blood clots in the abdomen. If there is abdominal distension and pain, it is likely caused by liver qi stagnation. Treating illnesses with Traditional Chinese Medicine requires syndrome differentiation and treatment. Actively participate in physical exercise, regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene.
