Application of "Yin-Yang Water-Fire Qi-Blood Theory" for Staging Differentiation and Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis
This study explored staging differentiation and treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) based on TANG Zonghai's "
yin
-
yang
, water-fire,
qi
-blood theory". UC is classified into active and remission stages, with various extraintestinal symptoms observed. The active stage could be further divided into severe and mild-to-moderate stages. At the severe active stage, toxins accumulate in the intestines and stomach, and blood is steamed by
qi
, so treatment should focus on draining dampness and resolving toxins, expelling pathogens and clearing the source; at the mild-to-moderate active stage, wind and
qi
agitate the blood, with slightly milder symptoms, so treatment should clear fire and nourish the blood, disperse wind and regulate
qi
; at remission stage, there is organ deficiency and pathogenic
qi
stagnation, so treatment should reinforce healthy
qi
and supplement deficiency, nourish
yin
and consolidate root; for various extraintestinal symptoms, the approach should clear heat, activate blood, and unblock meridians, with flexible application of treatment.
