Introduction
Gastric polyps usually refer to gastric polyps. Huoxiang Zhengqi Water can assist in relieving symptoms of gastric polyps but does not have a direct therapeutic effect. It is recommended to seek timely medical advice and undergo symptomatic treatment under a doctor's guidance. If treatment for gastric polyps is required, follow the physician's instructions for using medications that inhibit gastric acid secretion and protect the gastric mucosa, such as esomeprazole magnesium enteric-coated tablets, metronidazole tablets, and amoxicillin capsules.

　　Gastric polyps generally refer to polyps in the stomach. Under normal circumstances, Huoxiang Zhengqi Water can assist in relieving symptoms of gastric polyps but does not have a direct therapeutic effect. It is recommended to seek timely medical advice and undergo symptomatic treatment under a doctor's guidance. Detailed analysis is as follows:

　　Huoxiang Zhengqi Water is a traditional Chinese medicine composed of ingredients such as Atractylodes, Tangerine Peel, and Magnolia Bark (processed with ginger). It functions to relieve surface symptoms, resolve dampness, regulate qi, and harmonize the middle jiao. It is primarily used to regulate the spleen and stomach and alleviate symptoms of indigestion and abdominal distension caused by damp-heat. Gastric polyp patients may use Huoxiang Zhengqi Water as directed by a physician to harmonize gastrointestinal qi, thereby relieving digestive symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal distension, and diarrhea caused by dampness obstructing the middle jiao and disharmony of the spleen and stomach. Additionally, it can relieve gastrointestinal smooth muscle spasms and alleviate symptoms such as abdominal pain and bowel sounds.

　　The effectiveness of Huoxiang Zhengqi Water in treating gastric polyps is limited, and it cannot directly improve gastric polyps. If treatment for gastric polyps is required, it is recommended to follow medical advice and use medications that can inhibit gastric acid secretion and protect the gastric mucosa, such as esomeprazole magnesium enteric-coated tablets, metronidazole tablets, and amoxicillin capsules. These medications help alleviate discomfort symptoms caused by gastric polyps.
