Alopeciaareata belongs to the category of"youfeng"in traditional Chinese medicine,which is a common persistent recurrent disease in dermatology.Foreign studies show that the lifetime prevalence rate of the population is about 2%,which brings great negative effects on patients in life and psychology.Clinical doctors mostly treat the disease from the liver and kidney.According to the saying"all diseases are caused by the wind",Professor Jia Ying believes that external wind,internal wind and hidden wind are the key causes of alopeciaareata,and its pathogenesis is exuberant wind due to blood-heat,wind transformation due to blood-stasis,wind dryness due to blood-deficiency,and wind moving due to Yin deficiency.The pathogenic wind runs through the disease,and Jia Ying puts forward the view of"treating alopeciaareata from the perspective of wind".This view follows the holistic concept of traditional Chinese medicine,and focuses on the combination of whole and part.In the treatment,the wind-eliminating drugs should be used and acupoints for eliminating wind should be acupunctured,which can achieve the effect of combination of internal and external treatment,and elimina-tion of wind and dredging collaterals with the help of the wind medicine to move and disperse."Treating wind from the per-spective of wind"has achieved good clinical results and provided a new idea for the treatment of alopeciaareata.
