TCM treatment of chronic nephritis

summary

Nephritis belongs to the category of edema in traditional Chinese medicine. At present, it is considered to be an immune reactive disease. It is a kind of kidney disease with unknown cause, different pathological changes, but similar clinical manifestations. Now let's talk about the traditional Chinese medicine treatment of chronic nephritis.

TCM treatment of chronic nephritis

First, according to traditional Chinese medicine, kidney is the main source of human growth, development and reproduction, and it is the root of life activities, so it is called the essence of nature. The kidney controls the five fluids to maintain the balance of water and fluid in the body. Kidney governs bone and generates marrow, so as to make bone firm, teeth firm, brain full of glory and energy. The relationship between kidney and other viscera is also very close. The kidney controls Qi, and Qi roots in the kidney and returns to the lung, so it is helpful for the lung to inhale and cool down. The kidney's water is supplied to the heart, and the heart's fire is supplied to the kidney, and the water and fire are both supplied to balance yin and Yang. The kidney is the congenital origin, the spleen is the postnatal origin, and the spleen's healthy transportation depends on the warming of the kidney yang, Liver wood depends on the nourishing of kidney water. If the kidney meridian is sufficient, the liver will also be nourished. The bladder is mainly used to store body fluid and to transform Qi into water, but the gasification of bladder requires the transpiration of kidney qi. This is the origin of kidney in TCM.

Second: Traditional Chinese medicine therapy: the block of dampness, heat (cold), toxin and stasis and the deficiency of viscera function lead to kidney turbidity. The block of pathogenic toxin is mainly manifested by the increase of proteinuria, occult blood, serum creatinine and urea nitrogen, and the deficiency of spleen and kidney. Kidney damage due to spleen deficiency is the root, while proteinuria, occult blood, serum creatinine and urea nitrogen are the standard. Xie Ju Zheng San is the main aspect of contradiction. As the direct cause of aggravation of renal failure is excessive evil, the basic treatment is to remove evil. From the perspective of immunology, it is to promote the excretion of immune complexes retained in the glomerulus, enhance the sealing function of the kidney, achieve natural repair, excrete toxins (creatinine, urea nitrogen), at the same time, urine protein, occult blood, tube type, etc Step away. They are complementary and interdependent. Therefore, descending turbidity and detoxification, strengthening spleen and kidney are the treatment principles of the whole course.

Third, traditional Chinese medicine has certain advantages in the treatment of nephropathy. It can repair renal tissue, improve renal function and control kidney disease by syndrome differentiation. But in order to achieve good results, it takes a certain amount of time.
