Hypertension, mostly due to upper heat and lower cold, is mainly based on actual combat.

Many people have heard that it is hot and cold. As we all know, cold and hot is sub-health, and there is something wrong with the constitution. But you must have a question: what is the relationship between this kind of heat and cold and high blood pressure? Never heard of it.

Don't worry, I'll tell you a medical record and you'll understand. I met a patient with high blood pressure for 7 years. He was young, but he was 43 years old and male. He said that blood pressure can reach 200 when it is high, and it will exceed 120 when it is low. He used to be very anxious himself.

Of course, he used a lot of drugs and went to many hospitals. The effect is not ideal, it is fixed for one or two months every year, and the continuous drip makes him miserable. Coincidentally, I asked for a consultation and chose Chinese medicine.

The engraved diagnosis showed white greasy tongue coating, weak pulse, cold hands and feet, swollen legs and blushing. After understanding, give him a prescription:

Rhizoma Dioscoreae, Poria, Uncaria rhynchophylla, Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, Corni Fructus, Alismatis Rhizoma, Cortex Moutan, Achyranthis Radix, Concha Ostreae, Cortex Cinnamomi and Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata.

Let him go back and take it with water, one dose a day. What was the result? After taking the dose of 15, the blood pressure dropped obviously, and my hands and feet felt warm. Later, it was added and subtracted, and the blood pressure stabilized.

Let me tell you the truth. You see, the patient has a typical upper fever and lower cold, and his limbs are cold. This is yang deficiency and qi and blood deficiency. Because the limbs are far away from the viscera, qi and blood can not be well nourished. But it's hot, blushing, hot and dry, and high blood pressure. Why is this? Because the yang below is insufficient, the remaining yang above will float up, the yang deficiency will float up, the face will be hot and the blood pressure will be high.

So this prescription is to solve the problem of insufficient yang in the next yuan dynasty. Look, cinnamon, aconite, typical tonic. However, this is often misused by many people. You can't just replenish yang, you need to seek yang from yin. Therefore, both Rehmannia glutinosa and Cornus officinalis are used to nourish yin, just like Taiji gossip, which must be a balance of yin and yang. Uncaria rhynchophylla lowers blood pressure and Achyranthes bidentata bleeds, so that the problem of upper heat and lower cold will be solved and blood pressure will also drop.

Therefore, TCM conditioning of hypertension needs accurate syndrome differentiation, which is not complicated.
