Professor Lin Qian's Clinical Experience in Treating Elderly Hypertension From the Perspective of Liver and Kidney
Modern Chinese medicine scholars mostly explore hypertension through syndrome differentiation and treatment from the perspectives of dizziness,headache,and phlegm retention.The head is the"meeting of all Yang"and the"mansion of clearing yang".The essence and qi of the five organs and six organs are all injected into the head.If Qi deficiency,Yin and Yang imbalance,phlegm turbidity internal obstruction,and blood stasis block,resulting in the loss of nourishment in the clear body,dizziness can occur.Professor Lin Qian believes that there are approximately four types of causes and pathogenesis of this disease:excessive emotions,worry and anger,leading to stagnation of liver Qi and stagnation of Qi into fire.Improper diet can damage the spleen and stomach,leading to dampness and turbidity obstruction.Congenital deficiency or aging and physical decline can lead to liver and kidney Yin deficiency,Yin deficiency and liver yang hyperactivity.Old age,physical deficiency,or prolonged illness leading to loss of nourishment,damage to the Yang of the spleen and kidneys,stagnation of water and dampness,and overflow of phlegm and dampness.Professor Lin Qian has gained extensive clinical experience and concluded that liver and kidney dysfunction is the most common underlying cause and pathogenesis of elderly hypertension,taking into account pathological factors such as heart,spleen,kidney,systemic blood vessels,as well as emotions,Qi,blood,stasis,phlegm,etc.In terms of treatment,the main focus is on regulating the liver and tonifying the kidney,while taking into account"tonifying Qi""promoting blood circulation""unblocking collaterals",and"resolving phlegm"as auxiliary measures.Professor Lin Qian has developed his own"Tiaogan Bushen Tang",which combines individual syndrome differentiation and treatment in clinical practice.The clinical treatment effect is significant,with 2 cases of medical records as examples.
