Zhang Zhiling's Experience in the Treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome from Phlegm-dampness
At present,the main treatment for chronic fatigue syndrome(CFS)in clinical practice is to tonify deficiency.Professor Zhang Zhiling believes that the causes of this disease are numerous,with spleen and stomach dysfunction and phlegm-dampness blocking the qi movement being the key pathogenesis.Phlegm-dampness is both a pathological product and a condition of onset.Therefore,Professor Zhang proposes to treat CFS from the perspective of phlegm-dampness,which combines the functions of strengthening the spleen,regulating qi,and promoting blood circulation to treat it.Heqi Powder is often used as the base formula for addition or reduction,with obvious efficacy.One medical case was attached as evidence to provide ideas for the clinical treatment of CFS.
