Xiao Huo Luo Dan's first prescription

The syndrome of this prescription is caused by wind-cold-dampness, blood stasis and phlegm blocking meridians. Cold-dampness pathogen invades meridians for a long time, but it doesn't heal, qi and blood can't communicate, camp and health are not smooth, body fluid condenses into phlegm, blood stops becoming blood stasis, and meridians are blocked, then limbs are painful, numb and cramped, and joint flexion and extension are unfavorable; The pain is vacillating, which is a manifestation of excessive wind and evil; The tongue is purplish, with white fur, and the pulse is heavy or astringent, which is the syndrome of wind-cold-dampness and phlegm-blood stasis. It can be used to treat apoplexy, numbness of hands and feet, chronic treatment, heavy waist and legs, or pain between legs and arms, because it also blocks meridians due to dampness, phlegm and blood stasis.

Frankincense and myrrh promote qi, promote blood circulation and relieve pain, so as to dredge collaterals and remove blood stasis; Lumbricus is good at dredging meridians and specializes in dredging meridians, and * * * is an adjuvant medicine. The combination of all kinds of medicines complements each other, so that the cold and dampness of meridians can be eliminated, phlegm and blood stasis can be removed, the meridians can be unblocked, and the symptoms can be solved by themselves, hence the name "activating collaterals".
