【Medical records】

"Pearl Capsule": "The head breaks and bleeds. The body bleeds, and the tail stops the bleeding."

"Tangye Bencao": "The head stops bleeding, the body harmonizes bleeding, and the tips break bleeding."

【Predecessors release medicine】

Li Gao: "The head of angelica stops bleeding and moves upward; the body nourishes blood and guards the middle; the tip breaks blood and flows downward; the whole activates blood and does not move. The tip of angelica cures symptoms and ailments, breaks up bad blood, and the bad blood rushing upward after childbirth, removes various sores, swellings, and cures wounds with bad blood, warms the middle, moistens dryness, and relieves pain."

"Compendium of Materia Medica" states: "Danggui is used for body protection and replenishment, while its tail is used for circulation and removal of blood stasis, and its head is used for ascending. It is appropriate to raise the yin and yang in cases of blood in stool, blood in urine, metrorrhagia, etc. If the qi and fire rise and float in cases of vomiting blood and nosebleed, it is better to help warm the yin and yang. The word "hemostasis" should be used according to the symptoms, and it is not advisable to stick to the word "stop" and mistakenly think that it can do everything. Moreover, in cases of blood loss, the qi and fire rush and disturb the blood vessels, and the circulatory system does not follow the old path. In fact, most cases are caused by the strong smell of angelica. It is too much to move, but not enough to stop.

"New Compendium of Materia Medica": Angelica sinensis has a sweet and spicy taste, warm qi, can rise or fall, is the yin in the yang, and is non-toxic. Although it has the distinction between upper and lower , it is the same in terms of blood tonification . Dongyuan said that the tail can break blood, which is wrong. It enters the heart, spleen, and liver. However, its nature is very dynamic. If it is added to qi-tonifying medicine, it will tonify qi; if it is added to blood-tonifying medicine, it will tonify blood; if it is added to lifting medicine, it will lift qi; if it is added to descending medicine, it will expel blood. Moreover, if it is used for cold, it will be cold; if it is used for hot, it will be hot; there is no fixed effect.

    Precautions for making Chinese herbal medicine:

    1. The medicine jar must be cleaned

    When decocting Chinese medicine, the medicinal juice is concentrated due to evaporation of water, and a layer of medicinal scale often accumulates at the bottom and around the medicine pot. If the decocted medicine in the medicine pot is often changed, and the accumulated medicinal scale is not wiped off in time, the medicinal scale will dissolve when the new medicine is decocted, interfering with and reducing the efficacy of the medicine, and even delaying the treatment of the disease. Especially if highly toxic medicines or external medicines that cannot be eaten have been decocted before, it may cause poisoning.

    In addition, if the Chinese medicine is not cleaned immediately after each decoction, the scale at the bottom of the medicine pot will become thicker and thicker, and it will easily burn when the medicine is re-decocted, thus losing its efficacy.

    2. Whether to cover the medicine

    Generally speaking, in order to make Chinese medicine boil thoroughly, it is best to cover it. This is especially true for Chinese medicines containing volatile ingredients, such as mint, patchouli, and perilla leaves, and they should be boiled in a short time to prevent the active ingredients from volatilizing. For some expensive medicines, such as ginseng, deer antler, and wolfberry, the active ingredients should be fully released.

    Some Chinese herbal medicines are light in weight and large in size, such as Centella asiatica, Prunella vulgaris, White tongcao, Loofah, Corn hair, etc., so they should not be decocted with the lid on, otherwise they will often overflow from the pot. You can decoct with the lid on and stir at any time.

    3. Fry thoroughly and squeeze dry

    "Decoction thoroughly" means that the active ingredients of the medicine are fully released, which is the basic requirement for decoction. For medicines with tough texture and difficult to release active ingredients at once, only by decoction separately, decocting first, decocting for a long time, etc. can the medicine juice be thickened and the efficacy be fully exerted. Medicines with loose texture and light and fragrant nature do not need to be decocted for too long; but herbs with light texture and large body should be stirred frequently to facilitate decoction.
