Dr. Jiang Chenggang
When the spleen is not functioning properly, treatment and conditioning should take multiple aspects into consideration.
1. Dietary regulation is essential. It is recommended to consume more foods that nourish the spleen and stomach, such as Chinese yam, millet, and pumpkin. At the same time, avoid excessively cold, spicy, or irritating foods.
2. Lifestyle adjustments are also important, including maintaining good作息 habits, avoiding excessive fatigue and staying up late, and engaging in appropriate physical activities, such as jogging or swimming, to enhance physical fitness.
3. Physical therapies, such as acupuncture and massage, can accelerate blood circulation, unblock meridians, and help improve spleen function.
4. If symptoms are severe, medication may also be necessary, such as Renshen Jianpi Pills or Shenling Baizhu Powder. However, these should be used under the guidance of a physician.
The management of spleen dysfunction should involve a combination of dietary, lifestyle, physical, and medicinal approaches.
