Discussion on the Treatment of Lily Disease from the Perspective of Liver
Lily disease was first seen in the"Golden Chamber Essentials":"Lily disease,all the meridians are one,all the diseases are caused."Lily disease is an emotional disease characterized by mental confusion and mental insta-bility.Lily is the main medicine for treatment,so it is called lily disease.This disease occurs after a serious illness of typhoid fever,when the residual heat has not been resolved,or the patient's emotions are usually frustrated,and it is caused by external mental stimulation.Although different doctors have different views on lily disease,many doctors be-lieve that the pathogenesis of lily disease is inseparable from the heart and lungs based on the fact that"lily disease,all the meridians are one,all the diseases are caused".Since all the meridians refer to all the blood vessels and meridians in the human body,including the heart and lungs,they believe that the pathogenesis of lily disease is inseparable from the heart and lungs,that is,its pathogenesis is heart and lung yin deficiency and internal heat.However,if lily disease is treated from the perspective of the heart and lungs,its emotional,diet and other related symptoms cannot be accu-rately explained,and the patient's lung and spleen symptoms cannot be related to each other.If lily disease is treated from the perspective of the liver,the abnormal mental state and lung and spleen symptoms of lily disease can be better explained.The author first discusses the relationship between this disease and the liver meridian from the perspective of meridian circulation.Secondly,based on the relevant symptoms of lily disease,the author analyzes its internal con-nection with the liver,and then speculates that lily disease is caused by residual heat in the liver meridian.Then,the author further discusses the relationship between lily disease and residual heat in the liver meridian in combination with the chapter writing rules.In addition,through the main and secondary symptoms of lily disease,it is explained that when the depth of residual heat in the liver meridian is different,the duration of the disease process of lily disease is also different.Through the discussion of the relationship between lily and residual heat in the liver meridian,accord-ing to the characteristics of the disease during treatment,it is concluded that the main prescription of lily disease,Lily Rehmannia Decoction,is to clear the residual heat in the liver meridian.In the diagnosis and treatment of lily disease,it should be adjusted and cleared as soon as possible.At the same time,according to the manifestations related to emo-tions,the liver can be relieved by smoothing emotions.
