Question
I am a 26-year-old female. I have been experiencing some abdominal pain and decided to take my pulse, only to find out that there is some disharmony in my spleen and stomach, and I need to take medicine for nourishment. Therefore, I would like to consult with a doctor: what medicine should I take for disharmony of spleen and stomach?
Answer
Disharmony of spleen and stomach is characterized by qi stagnation in the spleen and stomach, leading to bloating in the wrist and abdomen, discomfort in the epigastrium, reduced appetite, dizziness after eating, abdominal pain after meals, and irregular bowel movements. The treatment principle focuses on harmonizing the spleen and stomach. Commonly used traditional Chinese patent medicines include the Liver and Stomach Pill. If possible, you can go to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department of the hospital for differential diagnosis and treatment based on the specific condition, and receive symptomatic treatment with nourishing Chinese medicine. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
