The organ systems according to Chinese medicine are interrelated, and when one is in the imbalanced state of yin and Yang, it affects the other organs. Therefore, one condition such as Pericarditis can manifest itself in many different syndromes. Herbal prescriptions would be combined relying on indications. Following are some of the main patterns related to the conditions of Pericarditis:
1. Exogenous evils Invading the lungs
2. Stagnation of Phlegm and heat

In TCM, a disease or a symptom might be caused by one pathogenic factor, even two or three pathogenic factors. When diagnosing a disease or a symptom, TCM doctors must follow the principle of "Syndrome Dfferentiation", and then "Suit the Remedy to the Case". In order to gain a more definite and valuable diagnosis, it's important and necessary for the doctor to learn the detailed health information of the patient, including his/her disease duration, age, sex, height, weight, family history, urine, stool, diet, sleep, sweat, energy, mood (emotion), as well as the tongue conditions and the palm conditions, etc. If you would want our expert to create a TCM diagnosis, you're welcome to contact us.
