What is the Thai medical term?

The word# What is Man?

"Man of water, man of wind, man of stone, man of blood" is from the Gut of Disease.

It describes the mechanism.

Or the cause of the disease in the traditional Thai medical system.

Here "man" means "element" or "component."

That's in our bodies.

There are four main types:

1. * * Water * * (water) refers to the element water or the accumulation of body fluids such as blood water, cellular water, etc. When there is too much volume, it can cause problems such as swelling or high blood pressure.

Symptoms caused by * * manwater * * (water element) in traditional Thai medicine are usually associated with abnormalities of body fluid accumulation, which can cause the following symptoms:

1.edema: swelling along body parts such as legs, hands or face, caused by excessive accumulation of water in the body.

2.Urine often or scrub urine due to the accumulation of water in the body or the obstruction of kidney function.

3. Fast increase in body weight. Water accumulation in the body will cause an unnatural increase in body weight.

4. Fatigue or easily tired

This is because body water can cause poor blood flow, or make the body feel heavy.

5. Swollen face or swollen eyes

The accumulation of water under the skin will cause swelling in the face, especially around the eyes.

.

Treatment under traditional Thai medicine guidelines usually focuses on balancing the body's water elements, by using herbs that help expel water from the body, such as using diuretics, or adjusting eating and drinking behavior.

---------------------------------

2. * * (Wind) refers to the movement or circulation of air in the body, which plays an important role in breathing and organ movement.

Symptoms caused by * * Man-wind * * in traditional Thai medicine are usually associated with abnormalities in the wind or body air movement system, which can cause the following symptoms:

1. Headaches or migraines. Headaches that usually come in intervals or are severe. When the wind is unbalanced, abnormal movements of wind or body air may occur.

2. Dizziness, feeling rotated, or feeling like falling, caused by the wind in the body, inability to move normally, or wind congestion at some point.

3.Flatulence. Inflation is caused by excessive wind in the stomach or intestines, causing abdominal discomfort, or a buildup of wind that causes the stomach to swell.

4. Inconvenient breathing or asthma due to problems with body airflow, especially in the respiratory system.

5. Joint or muscle aches. Unbalanced wind can cause wind freeze or buildup in joints or muscles.

Which causes pain or spasticity.

6. Irritability or anxiety

Unbalanced body winds can cause psychological symptoms, such as feeling more easily frustrated, anxious, or stressed.

The treatment of wind symptoms in traditional Thai medicine usually uses herbs that stimulate wind turnover or uses Thai massage methods to stimulate wind circulation in the body.

Including the balancing of living behavior.

Such as adequate rest and avoiding stressful situations.

----------------------------------

3. * * Man Stone * * (Stone)

It means a soil element or a heavy compound such as bone or muscle. If there is a disorder in this element, it can cause bone or muscle diseases.

It is usually associated with soil abnormalities, which are heavy, stable or strong in the body, can cause symptoms.

Such as

1.Constipation, slow gastrointestinal movement, or accumulation of intestinal substances that cannot be excreted may cause chronic constipation.

2.Joint or bone pain Soil element imbalance can cause joint, bone or muscle pain caused by poor accumulation of substances or movement in the bone and muscle system.

3. Swelling in the legs and feet

Due to water accumulation or imbalance in soil elements.

It can cause swelling in the legs, feet or areas of waste accumulation.

4. Unusually large body weight

The accumulation of heavy substances such as fat or other substances that cannot be metabolized causes an increase in body weight.

5. Disruption or retardation in the body. Sometimes it will feel heavy or hinder movement in the body, such as inconvenient walking or retardation in parts.

Of the body.

6. Coarse skin problems. When the stone is unbalanced, it can cause dry or coarse skin. Due to the accumulation of substances in the body that cannot be expelled.

.

Treatment of manstone syndrome in traditional Thai medicine usually uses herbs that stimulate waste excretion, or rebalancing of soil elements, such as the use of herbs with draining properties, or the nourishment of blood flow systems and body movements, including massage or herbal oil therapy to stimulate blood circulation and reduce retardation in the body.

----------------------------------------

4. * * (Blood) refers to blood or blood flow in the body that carries nutrients and oxygen to different parts of the body. If there are problems in this system, abnormal bleeding or vascular diseases may occur.

The symptoms are as follows:

1. Abnormal bleeding

- Bleeding from the nose.

- Bleeding from the gums or bleeding that is not normal from the body, such as bleeding from a small incision without making sense.

- Menstruation is irregular, such as abnormal or bleeding during the menstrual cycle.

2. Headache

- Severe headaches, especially in cases involving high blood pressure or poor blood flow in the brain.

- Headaches caused by blood congestion in different parts of the body, such as headaches from abnormal blood flow.

3. Pain in joints or muscles

- Blood buildup in joints can cause joint pain, muscle pain, or swelling in the joint area.

Sometimes it can feel inflammation or stress on a part of the body that is hemorrhagic.

4. Swelling

Blood congestion in parts of the body, such as swelling in the legs or feet, can be caused by poor blood flow causing blood flow.

And fluids accumulate in different areas of the body.

5. Discolored skin

The skin may be pale or bleeding spots under the skin.

Such as easy bruising.

Or there's a small blood spot on the skin.

The skin tone is dull, or the skin tone changes from normal.

6. Fatigue or easily tired

Unbalanced blood flow can cause insufficient transport of oxygen and nutrients to different organs, causing a feeling of fatigue, easy tiredness, or lack of energy.

The treatment of symptoms caused by * * man's blood * * in traditional Thai medicine usually uses herbs that balance blood flow, such as herbs that reduce blood pressure, stimulate blood flow, or expel residual blood from the body. Massage or physical therapy methods are also used, such as the use of herbs that stimulate blood flow.

In traditional Thai medicine,

Treatment of disease. We focus on balancing elements 4.

Earth, water, wind, fire.

Must fit together

If any element changes

Relapse, slack, crippled

(More-less unusual)

Therefore makes our bodies sick

Good health. Simple notice.

Eyes must be clear, glowing, skin must be dry or swollen.

I have to be thick, black, not broken ends.

If we lose balance,

The body will be deformed.

Expressed clearly

By Dr. Yui Bhalan, a traditional Thai doctor.
