An analysis of the relationship between Shaoyang and spleen-stomach in Shanghan Lun
Shaoyang(少阳)is closely related to the spleen and stomach.Ministerial fire of Shaoyang can warm and stimulate the operation of the whole-body viscera and Qi(气),blood and body fluid.Spleen and stomach is the"root"and the"pivot".Spleen extracts body fluid essence in food and drink to constantly supplement human essence,and spleen and stomach ascending and descending not only promotes viscera Qi activity,but restricts it also.The state of the spleen and stomach,its Qi transformation and movement process have an important impact on the operation of ministerial fire of Shaoyang.At the same time,ministerial fire of Shaoyang also plays a supporting role in the Yang Qi of the spleen and stomach,promoting the pivot operation of the spleen and stomach.Ying Qi(营气)and Wei Qi(卫气)is generated by the spleen and stomach.They are filled between the Exterior and Interior,distributed in the triple energizer,and Shaoyang is the hub of Ying Qi and Wei Qi.In the pathogenesis,the weakness of spleen and stomach easily causes Shaoyang disease.The state of spleen and stomach can determine the transmission and prognosis of Shaoyang disease.On the other hand,Shaoyang disease will also affect the state of spleen and stomach.If Shaoyang pathogens agglomerating and pathogenic Qi depression cannot penetrate between the exterior and interior,it will cause pressure,which is easy to force Yang Ming and cause nausea,or even retching and can't eat.If the spleen and stomach are not healthy,Shaoyang disease will be more serious.Shaoyang depression in turn affects the function of the spleen and stomach,forming a vicious cycle.It is also found that the recovery time of Shaoyang disease is related to the recovery time of spleen and stomach diseases in the Six Qi,which has been observed by the Treatise on Cold Damage Diseases.Through combing the classic work of traditional Chinese medicine Shanghan Lun-Shaoyang disease,this paper explores the correlation between Shaoyang and spleen and stomach in the pathogenesis,suggesting that the state of spleen and stomach cannot be ignored while clinical treatment of Shaoyang disease.
