Theoretical Studies And Medication Ideas Of Treating Diarrhea Of The Ming Dynasty’s Various Medical Schools

Research purpose:Explore the various schools of the Ming Dynasty physicians and medication idea for theoretical research on the treatment of diarrhea, hoping to find better and more effective dialectical thinking and treatment for "diarrhea"Research methods:First, choose the famous physician of Ming Dynasty, which was grouped into various school, including Danxi school, Wenbu school and Wenbing school, and then collected on behalf of physicians for each school of "diarrhea" in medical cases, their books have read and ponder. By collecting all medical cases, organize their medical experiences; analyze theoretical studies and medication ideas of various schools on behalf of the Ming Dynasty physicians in the treatment of "diarrhea".Results:Ming Dynasty physician because of the previous medical theories, all physicians have different points of view, and becoming different schools, thus contributing to the development of medical theories and practices.Danxi school believed that causes of diarrhea are phlegm, fire, dampness and deficiency or other factors, the main cause is "dampness", and think that diarrhea should treat from dampness. On this basis, Dai Sigong considered there are five causes combining with dampness and in the treatment of diarrhea should distinguish between cold, heat, deficiency and excess.Diarrhea for Wenbu school believes that "the root of diarrhea, all due to the spleen and stomach." Because of exogenous, diet, lifestyle and other factors make spleen qi fails to ascend, and the spleen gets insufficient and malfunctions, it will affect reception and descending of the stomach; then may appear symptoms of diarrhea.It also attached importance to the kidney yang deficiency by chronic illness. Since yang fails to warm the spleen, the spleen may then fail to transport and transform the water and food and lead "kidney vent." To strengthen the spleen and supplement qi and warm the kidney and spleen are the main treatment principle for "kidney vent".A famous physician of Ming Dynasty is Wu Youxin from Wenbing school. Recording Wu’s medical cases, during or after warm heat diseases can combine diarrhea. The latter course, tidal fever and diarrhea occurred in the afternoon, the major formula is Xiaochengqitang to dispel the pathogen; after disease, genuine yang deficiency will dawn vent, then use Qichentang for supplement qi and warm the spleen-yang.

At last, Li propose external Chinese medicine highlighting the diversity of Li treatment, not only for the development of Chinese pharmacology made a significant contribution, but also for world medicine, botany, zoology, mineralogy, chemistry development has also had a profound impact.Conclusion:Diarrhea is an important system for digestive diseases, is also common clinical disease. Therefore, through reading books, each school physicians have their own theory, principle, formula and medication. Also, drug research and analysis, trace the origin of diarrhea syndrome awareness and clinical development are significant.
