Exploring the prevention and treatment of enuresis in children based on the"five emotions"theory in traditional Chinese medicine
Enuresis in children is located in the bladder,with the pathogenesis being a disorder of the qi trans-formation in the three burners and improper restraint of the bladder.Its etiology includes instability of kidney qi,de-ficiency-cold in the lower jiao,and bladder dysfunction,but it is closely related to emotional factors.When the five e-motions-joy,anger,sorrow,contemplation,and fear-are experienced to excess,they can easily affect the qi mecha-nism of the five zang organs and induce or exacerbate enuresis.Therefore,in clinical practice,in addition to focusing on the kidney and bladder,it is essential to strengthen the regulation of children's emotions.In terms of treatment,the theory of emotional counteraction can be applied by selecting corresponding emotions to correct imbalances.Meanwhile,considering that children often have insufficient lung,spleen,and kidney qi,attention should be paid to regulating their constitution.For children with excessive heart and liver qi,if the heart orifice is obstructed,methods to open the orifice and awaken the spirit should be used,and if liver stagnation transforms into fire,methods to clear the liver and relieve depression should be applied.
