for Vitiligo Everyone should have heard that this is a skin disease that is difficult to treat. Many people have suffered from this disease, because the main symptom of vitiligo is day shift, which greatly affects the appearance of the patient. Many patients dare not show up in public for fear of being laughed at. Over time, the patient will develop a severe inferiority complex and even suicidal emotions. So how should vitiligo be treated?
1. Method of replenishing qi and blood
The patient suffers from deficiency of qi and blood, combined with external attack of wind evil and loss of harmony between camp and guard. Most of the vitiligo belongs to the stable stage, which mainly manifests as light white spots, accompanied by mental fatigue, pale complexion, pale tongue, and deep, thin and astringent pulse. Treatment should be to replenish qi and blood, and dispel wind and blood.
2. Method of nourishing liver and kidneys
The patient suffers from liver and kidney yin deficiency, combined with disharmony of qi and blood, and loss of skin nutrition. The course of the disease is longer, and the white spots are localized or widespread. The hair turns white, the skin becomes dry, and there is dizziness and tinnitus. Soreness and weakness in the waist and knees, pale red tongue with little coating, and thready and weak pulse. Treatment should be to nourish the liver and kidneys, activate blood circulation and expel wind.
3. Method of dispelling wind and dredging collaterals
Due to the external invasion of rheumatism, the patient's meridians are unfavorable and the skin loses nourishment. The onset and spread are rapid. White spots occur mostly on the head and face or spread all over the body. There is often itching locally, thin white fur, and a floating pulse. Treatment should be to dispel wind and remove dampness, harmonize blood and unblock meridians.
4. Method of promoting qi and blood circulation
Most patients suffer from qi stagnation and blood stasis. The clinical manifestations are spots or flakes of varying sizes with clear and smooth edges, accompanied by heavy and painful limbs, dark purple tongue, or petechiae, and stringy and astringent pulse. Treatment should be to promote qi and blood circulation.
5. Method of combing the liver and regulating qi
Most patients suffer from liver stagnation and qi stagnation. The clinical manifestations are white spots with no fixed predilection site, which are bright and sometimes dark in color. They are often aggravated with changes in mood. They are more common in women. They are often accompanied by chest tightness and heat, irritability, irregular menstruation, lumps in the breasts, etc., with white coating and stringy pulse. Treatment should be to soothe the liver and regulate qi. Patients should maintain an optimistic mood and avoid being stimulated by negative emotions such as anxiety, sadness, and sadness. There should be reasonable living arrangements and care should be taken to avoid endocrine disorders and other symptoms. In addition, patients should also pay attention to the balance between work and rest, and avoid overexertion.
People's intimate clothing such as underwear and underwear should not be too tight. Clinically, white spots that appear on the lower back, waist, etc. are mostly caused by local pressure. People should try to wear pure cotton products to avoid trauma, friction, oppression, etc. It is not advisable to rub hard when taking a bath.
