Question

I always feel full after meals, as if it’s not easy to digest. Occasionally, I burp, and I often have a desire to defecate, but the amount of stool is irregular. What medication can help improve this condition?

Answer

Hello, the symptoms you described are caused by the failure of Qi to rise and turbid Qi to descend due to damp-heat in the spleen and stomach. There is no specific Western medicine for this condition. Traditional Chinese medicine, with its long history of clinical practice, has developed many unique treatment methods. I suggest you use traditional Chinese medicine, such as black ash, black dates, walnuts, tangerine, angelica, etc., in conjunction with treatment. These herbs can clear damp-heat in the spleen and stomach, enhance gastrointestinal function, promote digestion, and Radical Cure your symptoms.
