Introduction
There is no scientific evidence supporting any quick method of drinking herbal infusions to dissolve nodules. Generally, traditional Chinese herbs such as white mustard seed (Bai Jie Zi), soap荚 (Zao Jia), and dandelion (Pu Gong Ying) may be used to make infusions, which are believed to help reduce nodules. Additionally, herbs like angelica root (Dang Gui) and white peony root (Bai Shao) can also be used in infusions. Patients should pay attention to dietary management by eating light meals and consuming more foods rich in vitamins and high-quality proteins to enhance immunity.

There is no definitive claim that any particular herb used for steeping in water can eliminate nodules the fastest. However, traditional Chinese herbs such as white mustard seed (bai jie zi), soap pod (zao jia), and dandelion (pu gong ying) are commonly consumed as herbal teas to help dissolve nodules more quickly.

1. White Mustard Seed (Bai Jie Zi)

Nodules are round, oval, or irregular hard lumps left behind by inflammatory or non-inflammatory damage, which may appear in various parts of the body. White mustard seed has a pungent taste and warm nature, and contains multiple substances such as myrosinase and sinapine. Patients drinking an appropriate amount of white mustard seed tea may benefit from its nodule-dissolving and dispersing effects.

2. Soap Pod (Zao Jia)

Soap pod contains phenolic compounds, is warm in nature, and has a pungent and salty taste. Consuming it in moderation may help dissolve and disperse nodules in patients.

3. Dandelion (Pu Gong Ying)

Dandelion tea is typically prepared using the herb dandelion as the main ingredient. Dandelion is slightly cold in nature and possesses functions of clearing heat, detoxifying, reducing swelling, and dissipating nodules. It can be used to treat conditions such as abscesses, boils, mastitis, and internal carbuncles. Therefore, drinking dandelion tea is beneficial for resolving nodules.

In addition, other herbs such as angelica (dang gui) and white peony root (bai shao) can also be used for steeping in water. Patients should pay attention to dietary regulation in daily life, maintain a light diet, and consume more foods rich in vitamins and high-quality protein to enhance immunity.
