Introduction
Most patients with Spleen-Stomach Deficiency exhibit the following symptoms: - Epigastric pain: Patients with Spleen-Stomach Deficiency are prone to epigastric pain—especially when the weather turns cold or after consuming excessive raw or cold foods. Many patients experience such pain, which can be alleviated by drinking warm water. - Menstrual irregularities: This occurs in female patients and may include menstrual disorders, abnormal vaginal discharge, and dysmenorrhea.

Due to individual differences in lifestyle habits, the diseases that manifest in the body also vary. Some people may develop “Spleen-Stomach Deficiency-Cold,” yet many are unfamiliar with its symptoms. What are the symptoms of Spleen-Stomach Deficiency-Cold?

Symptoms of Spleen-Stomach Deficiency-Cold

Most patients with Spleen-Stomach deficiency exhibit the following symptoms:

Gastric pain: Patients with Spleen-Stomach deficiency commonly experience gastric pain—particularly when exposed to cold weather or after consuming excessive raw or cold foods. Many report relief upon drinking warm water.

Menstrual irregularities: This symptom predominantly affects women and may include menstrual disorders, abnormal vaginal discharge, and dysmenorrhea. Prolonged neglect of this condition may even lead to infertility.

Poor appetite: A marked loss of appetite is another characteristic feature of this condition. Affected individuals often feel disinterested in food. Consequently, patients frequently appear pale-faced, fatigued in their limbs, and generally undernourished.

Excess dampness: In addition to the above symptoms, patients may also present with signs of excessive internal dampness. Due to impaired Spleen-Stomach function, the body struggles to metabolize and eliminate dampness effectively. Over time, prolonged accumulation of dampness can lead to pronounced dampness-related symptoms.

During treatment, it is essential to establish healthy daily routines and ensure adequate sleep. Dietary modifications are equally important: avoid spicy, stimulating, or otherwise irritating foods; instead, emphasize fresh fruits, vegetables, and easily digestible meals. We hope this information proves helpful to you.
