Standard formula of Li Ke Sini Decoction

"Ni" in Sini Tang means going against the grain. Sini refers to the coldness of the limbs from the fingertips (toes) upwards to above the elbows and knees. The limbs are the basis of all yang, and the three yin and three yang meridians are connected to the hands and feet. Once Yang is weak and Yin is strong, the Shaoyin pivot is not functioning properly, and Qi and blood cannot flow to the limbs, symptoms of cold and numbness in the limbs will occur. This prescription can relieve the coldness and numbness of the limbs and allow qi and blood to flow to the limbs, hence it is called Sini Decoction. Our side is a prescription for restoring yang and rescuing the adverse situation. In addition to cold limbs, the main manifestations of systemic yin deficiency and internal heat syndrome are accompanied by fatigue, drowsiness, diarrhea, pale tongue with white coating, and weak pulse.

It is specifically used to treat Shaoyin disease during childbirth.

Analysis of syndrome differentiation and treatment:

Cold is a Yin evil, which can easily damage Qi and blood. Dampness penetrates deep into Shaoyin and damages kidney Qi, which is the foundation of the body's Qi and blood. "Suwen Mango Jue Lun" says: "When Qi and blood decline below, it is called cold Jue." Yin deficiency and fire decline, the whole body and the body lose warmth, so there are cold limbs and the patient is afraid of the cold and curled up. The accuracy of the spleen's function in transporting and transforming food and water depends on the warmth of the kidney qi. If the kidney qi is weak, it cannot warm the spleen yang, and the spleen loses its function of digestion and absorption, causing the clear yang to not rise but sink instead, and the turbid yin to not decrease but rise up, thus causing vomiting and diarrhea. Yang deficiency and excessive coldness cause stagnation of coldness, so abdominal pain occurs. "Suwen Mango Raising Pain Discussion" says: "Cold air enters the meridians and is delayed, and the patient feels pain but not well. If it stays outside the meridians, there will be less blood, and if it stays inside the meridians, the qi will be blocked, so the patient does not even feel the pain." Only when the qi and blood are abundant can the spirit be energetic. Now that the yang qi is weak and the spirit is not nourished, the patient will feel weak and drowsy. When the sun shines on you, your Qi and blood leak out with the sweat, damaging the Yang of the heart and kidneys, leading to the Yang loss syndrome due to severe Qi and blood deficiency. When Yang Qi is weak and unable to stimulate blood circulation, the pulse will be weak and thready.
