TCM Medicinal Compress Therapy

外敷方法,又名敷贴,是将药物敷在体表特定部位来治疗疾病的一种传统中医疗法。如果所用的药物属于干品,不含有汁液,就将药物研为细末,然后加入适量的调和剂(如鸡蛋清、酒、水、蜜等),调成干湿适当的糊状敷用。如果所用的药物本身含有汁液,如大蒜,就将药物捣成糊状敷用。我院不断总结、改进传统外敷验方,并按照银屑病病人病因、病症、病情的不同,科学配伍、组方,掌握了上百个中药外敷经典组方,临床效果显著。我院外治银屑病主要制剂为酊剂、浸剂,亦有散剂、膏剂等,因直接作用于病变部位,疗效迅速、肯定。
In this traditional TCM therapy of medicinal compress, the TCM medicines are compressed onto the lesion site. If the medicines are dry and do not contain any juice, the medicines are first ground up, and then the powder is prepared into a paste of proper wetness by adding an appropriate amount of blending agents (e.g. egg white, wine, water and honey). If the medicines contain some juice (e.g. garlic), the medicines are directly smashed into paste. We continuously summarize and improve the proved recipes for TCM compress therapy, and combine the TCM medicines in a scientific compatible way according to the different etiology, symptoms and illness states of psoriasis. We have developed more than one hundred of classical recipes for TCM medicinal compress therapy at a prominent clinical efficacy. By directly acting on the lesion site, our external medicines (mainly tincture/extract and sometimes powder/ointment) become ineffective in a fast definite way.
