What is the basis for using traditional Chinese medicine to treat lymphoma

If you have lymphoma, then the hottest topic is the treatment of lymphoma. People all hope that their bodies will be healthy. So what is the basis for using traditional Chinese medicine to treat lymphoma ? Someone raised this question, and the details are as follows.

Lymphoma seriously endangers the health of patients and affects their normal life. Now, more and more clinicians are paying attention to the treatment of malignant lymphoma with TCM. Patients' survival with tumors or even long-term survival with tumors has become a major research direction of TCM treatment of malignant lymphoma. This highlights the special role of TCM in treating malignant lymphoma. TCM treatment of malignant lymphoma can take into account the characteristics of the patient's whole body, rather than just being limited to the cancer lesions themselves.

1. Theoretical Basis of TCM Treatment of Lymphoma

Lymphoma is similar to diseases such as loss of glory, malignant nucleus, carbuncle, and lumps recorded in traditional Chinese medicine. There are different opinions about the treatment of lymphoma by traditional Chinese medicine. Chen Shigong of the Ming Dynasty said: "Loss of glory is caused by stagnation of fire, loss of phlegm, or worry, joy, anger, and condensation of qi and blood." Wang Hongxu of the Qing Dynasty said: "Yin carbuncle is caused by stagnation of cold phlegm in the skin." He also said: "The color of yin is unclear and scattered, which is the deficiency of both qi and blood, the cold condensation of malignant nucleus is very severe, and the root of poison is the deepest." Qi Guangsheng of the Qing Dynasty discussed in "Surgery Dacheng" that this type of disease is "caused by anger, wind, heat, and blood dryness in the three meridians of the triple burner, liver and gallbladder, or wind and heat deficiency in the two meridians of the liver and kidney." This shows that this disease is caused by wind, fire, blood dryness, or cold phlegm stagnation, and internal causes are worry, joy, anger, liver depression, qi stagnation, phlegm and fire, and qi stagnation and blood stasis, which accumulate and form knots. Over time, the internal organs are deficient, the liver and kidneys are deficient, and both qi and blood are deficient.

2. Holistic Chinese medicine is very important in treating lymphoma

Based on 30 years of experience in cancer treatment, experts have summarized the "Ten New Theories for Cancer Treatment", two of which I would like to mention.

First, holism. Although a tumor only grows in a certain part of the body, it is actually a systemic disease. A large number of case facts show that local cancer can have a wide range of effects on various systems in the body and manifest in various symptoms. For most tumor patients, local treatment cannot solve the fundamental problem. However, Chinese medicine treats lymphoma from a holistic perspective, implements syndrome differentiation and treatment, considers local treatment, and adopts the method of strengthening the body's constitution. Therefore, it plays an important role in improving the patient's local symptoms and systemic condition.

Second, the theory that Chinese and Western medicine each play half of the sky. Both Chinese and Western medicine serve human health. They have their own advantages and do their best in the field of medicine. From the perspective of lymphoma treatment, it is best to use Western medicine diagnosis in the diagnosis stage, that is, Western medicine diagnosis, supplemented by Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation and treatment; in this way, we can learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and eliminate the shortcomings of Western medicine "only diagnosing diseases and organs, but not patients", and the shortcomings of Chinese medicine that are abstract and unquantifiable. Remove the coarse and retain the fine, remove the false and retain the true, combine Chinese and Western medicine, each play half of the role, and cooperate with each other. In addition, Western medicine can remove tumors through surgery, while Chinese medicine can provide holistic treatment before and after surgery to control tumor recurrence. In summary, the combination of Chinese and Western medicine to treat tumors is like mowing the grass, and Chinese medicine is like rooting out. I believe that the complete combination of Chinese and Western medicine will help the treatment of lymphoma.

3. TCM treatment of lymphoma should be based on the type of symptoms

According to the TCM treatment principle of "heating the cold, cutting the hard, dispersing the knotted, attacking the lingering, moistening the dry, and supplementing the weak" in the treatment of lymphoma, the treatment is carried out according to the clinical type. Ancient doctors advocated warming the yang and unblocking the knot in the treatment of Yin carbuncle (similar to malignant lymphoma), opposed reckless clearing and dissolving, and protected the stomach qi at the same time.

The above is the explanation given by experts on the treatment of lymphoma. I hope it can help you answer your questions. Experts remind that if you cannot distinguish the type of disease, the best way is to go to the hospital for examination. Do not take medicine at random according to your own will, which will worsen the condition or cause other diseases.
