Application of TCM theory of"preventing disease"in the prevention and treatment of thyroid nodules
In recent years,thyroid nodules has been a common disease.Its high incidence and malignant transformation seriously endan-gers people's physical and mental health.The theory of"preventive treatment"in traditional Chinese medicine could provide many pre-vention and treatment strategies for thyroid nodules from the four levels of"prevention before disease onset,rescuing disease in its ger-mination,preventing from exacerbating,and preventing for recurrence".In the stage of prevention before disease onset,we should focus on risk factors,including diet,emotion,external pathogenic factors,and so on.In rescuing disease in its germination stage,it is important to adjust the biased constitution,mainly qi stagnation,phlegm-dampness,damp heat,qi asthenia and yang asthenia constitution.In prevent-ing from exacerbating stage,both strengthening the body and eliminating pathogenic factors should be concerned.Strengthening the body cares for the spleen and stomach during the whole course of treatment,and pays attention to the co-regulation of qi and blood and co-treatment of phlegm and blood stasis in the treatment of eliminating pathogenic factors.In preventing for recurrence stage,we should in-sist on strengthening the body to prevent patients from recurring after surgery.
