Introduction to Traditional Inspection-Hand Clinic (1)

"Looking, smelling, asking, and cutting" are the main diagnostic methods of traditional Chinese medicine. Among them, there are many effective methods for inspection. For example, the "visual examination" by Lin Hong, a Wushu physician from South Shaolin in Fujian, judges the bruises by the distribution of black and white spots on the eyeballs; the "tongue examination" by Guo Zhichen, the founder of Shijiazhuang Space Medicine; and the "abdominal examination" by Cai Hongguang, a meridian physician in Guangzhou Unique; Guangdong Southern Shaolin Wu's doctor Wen Guosheng's "hand and face consultation" is a must. Now I will give a brief introduction to "Hand Clinic" and share it with you.

In daily life, most people unintentionally pay attention to many life phenomena and physical changes, and miss the treatment opportunity, causing lifelong regrets. So it is said that "man does not die from disease but from ignorance". Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the human body is an organic whole. The physiological activities and pathological changes of the internal organs, qi, blood, meridians and collaterals in the body must have certain signs externally. Changes in the whole body can be reflected in a certain part, and local lesions will also be reflected. Causes a systemic reaction. Traditional Chinese medicine inspection is based on the corresponding principles inside and outside the human body, and inferring the physiological activities and pathological changes of the internal organs by observing the changes outside the body. "Hand diagnosis" is to observe the hand shape, nails, half-moon marks, blue veins, black and white blood spots, palm prints, palm qi and blood, etc., through the observation of the hand. It is an ancient medical hand diagnosis. The mystery of. Understanding ourselves and taking care of our health is also the key for us to seek good fortune and avoid evil, and to maintain health.

3. The softness and hardness of the palm.

1) Soft palms: a. The palms are thick, fleshy and flexible, mostly energetic, strong and adaptable. b. If the palm is thick and weak, with poor elasticity, it is mostly due to lack of energy and fatigue. c. The palms are soft, thin and weak, often with reduced energy, and weak and sickly. People with soft hands are mostly people who work with their brains. There is a saying in Chinese medicine: palms are like cotton, free and rich, indicating the importance of knowledge.

2) Hard palms: a. Those with hard palm muscles and lack of elasticity. The blood qi is somewhat suppressed, the meridians are not very smooth, and the adaptability is relatively poor. b. People with stiff and thin palms have problems with digestive system function, poor circulatory system, stubbornness in everything, and lack of resilience. People with hard hands are mostly laborers, people who work hard. There is a saying in Chinese medicine: palms are as hard as iron, and they are constantly running.

Second, the finger is healthy

The palm is yin, the back of the hand is yang, and the five fingers happen to be yin and yang interlaced. Dry leaves usually mean that the roots lack water. The qi from a person's internal organs first comes to the fingers, so a person's internal organ problems can be seen in the hands immediately. Therefore, the fingers are very sensitive and can easily reflect a person's health. When there is no problem in the human body, modern medical science has not detected it, but it can be seen from the fingers. A person does not die from disease but from ignorance. The fingers generally represent the head, the palms generally represent the internal organs, and the back of the hands generally represent our backs.

(1) Thumb. Associated with lung and spleen. The main headache. 1) The knuckles are too thick, and if there is more than qi, it is fire, and the mood is extreme, and it is easy to get angry. 2) Flat and weak, poor physique, neurasthenia. 3) You can look at the situation of sexual function. You can see if the gas is enough, press it down and see if it can bounce up quickly. When the thenar presses down and looks at the bounce, you can see the heart's pulsation ability. 4) Blue tendons appear in the joints of the thumb and knuckles, prone to coronary heart disease or coronary atherosclerosis. 5) The streaks of the joints of the thumb and palmar joints are disordered, which is prone to early heart disease. 6) Those with thick upper and lower thumbs have poor absorption function, and the body is generally thinner; those with thick upper and lower lower have good absorption function, and it is difficult to lose weight. 7) Those with horizontal stripes in the middle of the thumb have poor absorption function. The more horizontal stripes, the greater the interference to people.

(2) Index finger. Associated gastrointestinal. Headache before the master. The large intestine has passed through, so it is especially the problem of the large intestine. The fingertips should be smaller and smaller, like bamboo shoots, if the opposite is the absorption and conversion function is relatively poor. The three-node pattern distance should be balanced. The index finger is innocent, bent, and weak. It is generally a function of the spleen and stomach. Normally, it is easy to fatigue and lack of energy. If the index finger has passed the three passes, it means that there is a critical condition; if there is a blue muscle between the base of the index finger and the thumb, be aware that there will be frozen shoulder.

(3) Middle finger. Connect with the heart. Lord's head. The pericardium passes through, mainly in charge of people's emotions, intelligence, and mind. If the middle finger is thin and there are many horizontal stripes, it means that the person's life is irregular, which often indicates cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. When you see blue veins at the base of the middle finger, you should pay attention to easy cerebral arteriosclerosis. Note that many blue veins have a stroke tendency. The bending or twisting is very severe. It must be a stroke; a lot of blue veins on the thumb are often heart problems.

(4) Ring finger. Associated with liver and gallbladder, endocrine. Main migraine. The triple energizer meridian is a membrane system, which is equivalent to endocrine, where nutrients go in and waste comes out. If the ring finger is too short, it means that the innate vitality is insufficient. People who have a disorder of the triple jiao meridian always have uncomfortable feelings, which means that there is a problem with the metabolism of the whole cell.

(5) Little finger. Connect the heart and kidney. Headache after the master. When the heart meridian and the small intestine meridian pass, the heart and kidney problems are caused by the small finger tube, which is closely related to the heart, kidney, uterus, and testis. The little finger is long and thick and straight. It must pass the third level or be even with the third level. This is good. If it is smaller than the third level or even bent, it means that the kidneys and heart are not very good. If the little finger is small and short, lesbian gynecology is prone to problems and irregular menstruation. If it is very small, her reproductive function will be impaired; gay men are prone to kidney deficiency, sore waist and weak kidney function. If the little finger is congenital deficiency, it will have the greatest impact on the entire human body. The other four fingers are very good, but the little finger is not good, indicating a congenital deficiency. Therefore, the key to maintaining a person's physical fitness is to look at the little finger, usually rubbing the little finger more. The ancients said: "The little finger passes the three passes, and a person can be born in a desperate situation."

(6) View finger shape:

1) The strength of the reference: the difference indicates which related organs have problems.

2) Straight fingers: The fingers are straight and strong, indicating that the person has a straight personality. Leaking empty hands is also leaking money.

4) The softness and hardness of the fingers: People with straight thumbs are more confident, personally experienced, but easy to get angry; people with curved thumbs are more likely to think about problems, and they are prone to insomnia and dreams.

5) The blood color of the fingers: whiter means that the blood is insufficient, the body is thin, and the hands and feet are more afraid of cold; the red one means that the blood is sufficient and hot, and everything should not be too much, and the blood is too red and the qi is not smooth, and people are easy to fatigue; self-comparison of fingers Especially red means that the person is very tired, and the blood viscosity is high, and the blood lipids are high; red and purple and black are very dangerous, indicating that the blood supply of the cerebral arteries is insufficient, and myocardial infarction. If the whole palm is darkened and there is no blood color, it is necessary Pay attention to the tumor problem (just like the pear looks good on the outside, cut off the bad part, the good part still has a bad smell), this is more difficult to treat, and a lot of emergency detoxification is required. People who have particularly green middle fingers indicate that their digestive function is particularly poor.

(7) The law of finger shape:

1) The size of the fingers is short: the blood flow back quickly, the physical strength is better, the energy is more energetic, the reaction is faster, and the sex is more straightforward; on the contrary, the blood is too strong, the liver is fierce, and it is prone to high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, and cerebrovascular If there is a problem, this kind of person is suitable for doing relatively quiet exercises such as Tai Chi and Qigong, and practicing methods of self-cultivation.

Ten fingers connected to the heart, ingenuity. Fingers are mainly related to cardiovascular problems, and toes have a greater relationship with the head. "Knead your fingers and toes frequently, you don't need to worry about insomnia and headaches, often rub your thumbs to strengthen your brain, often rub your index finger to improve your stomach and intestines, often rub your middle finger to strengthen your heart, often rub the ring fingers and liver, and often rub your little finger to strengthen your kidneys."; The exercise method: "Ten fingers to strengthen the heart, hands to the plug, clear the brain, rotate the joints to pass the meridians, turn the palms to stretch the muscles and bones, knead the fingers to relieve headaches, cut the nail corners to refresh the energy, massage the four passes to promote qi and blood, and shake the shoulders. Shoulder loose cervical spine."

Third, the health of nails

Each corner of the nail is the place where the twelve menstrual blood of the meridians are located, so it is like a source, it is the key place of yin and yang alternation. It is more important for the close connection of the internal organs. Blood is Yin and Qi is Yang. Qi and blood are an important substance for maintaining human physiology. So looking at your nails, you can also see a lot of problems on your body. It looks like a window or a fluorescent screen.

If it is red or purple, it usually means poor sleep, confusion, dreaminess, and cerebral arteriosclerosis, but if it is purple-black, it means dizziness, headache, and even a tumor in the head. d. The red line on the nail and the fingertips above the nails indicate that it is also a problem with the head, such as yin and yang imbalance, cold and heat mixed, easy insomnia, confusion, dizziness, headache, and neurasthenia.

The half-moon mark is the junction of the yin and yang meridians, like the sand or sponge pad in the high jump, it is a buffer between yin and yang. The abundant blood vessels under the nail bed are the windows through which people can truly observe the circulation of Qi and blood. The "Huangdi Neijing" says: "Yin and yang alternate and lively, and those who move the breath are the root of the twelve meridians." Therefore, the nail half-moon mark is also called the health circle, which is the representative of the body's essence. The development of half-moon marks is deeply affected by nutrition, environment and physical fitness. When the digestion and absorption function is not good, the half-moon marks will be blurred, reduced or even disappeared. Therefore, the half-moon mark is a very important window to show the human body's good and evil conditions and to infer the condition after the disease has recovered.

2) The effect of the half-moon mark: Traditional Chinese medicine believes: "The liver is blood if the qi is not depleted, the kidney is the essence if the blood is not depleted, and the bone is the marrow if the essence is not depleted." This is how the essence and essence come from. Many people have osteoporosis because they lack the essence and lose energy. Such people are prone to calcium deficiency. The half-moon mark is a window of energy and essence, as if the fuel gauge of a car can tell whether the car still has oil. Essence is a high-level energy material in the human body that is transformed into a substance called vitality. The role of vitality: a. The vitality of the kidney nourishes the internal organs; b. Promotes the normal movement of qi and blood; c. Fights against external evils (immune function); d. Longevity and anti-aging material; e. Genetic material. Too much staying up late, night life, sex life, etc. consume people's energy, make the vitality badly, easy to lose appetite, colds, repeated colds, the half moon marks will disappear. There is a saying in traditional Chinese medicine: "Insufficient essence should be supplemented with flavor." The supplement of energy must be based on protein, preferably high-quality protein, such as milk, eggs, beans, fish, and black food (Chinese medicine says: Every black enters the kidney, every black nourishes the kidney), seed (such as beans), embryonic (such as sheep placenta, wheat germ) food. People who do not have half-moon marks have a lot of nutritional supplements. After one month, they will find half-moon marks on the thumb first, and then the index finger, middle finger, ring finger, and the little finger are more difficult to grow. Traditional Chinese medicine says: "Essence foot people are strong, the weak people are sick (the half-moon marks should be white, but they turn into other colors), the little ones (the half-moon marks disappear) people are old, and they are exhausted and die." Therefore, a person is not sick. Also pay attention to strengthening nutrition.

3) Normal half-moon marks. a. Quantity: 8-10 fingers of both hands must have half moon marks. b. Morphology: The area of ​​half-moon marks occupies 1/5 of the nail. c. Color: Milky white, the whiter the better, indicating the stronger the energy.

4) Abnormal half-moon marks. a. The number is small. The fewer half-moon marks, the worse the energy, the colder the physique, and the weaker the immunity. Traditional Chinese medicine says: Yang deficiency produces internal cold and is more afraid of cold. This situation shows that a person is either not sick, it is more difficult to get sick. b. There are three types: cold bottom type (where there are fewer half-moon marks, the colder it is, and no half-moon marks are cold type, indicating that the yang qi in the body is weak but the yin and cold are more abundant. Insufficient yang qi indicates that your resistance is decreased, and your Decreased visceral function, slow movement of qi and blood, people are prone to fatigue, lack of energy, poor absorption, pale complexion, cold hands and feet, heart terrors, lethargy, easy colds, repeated colds, energy decline, decreased physical fitness, and even stagnant phlegm and dampness. Qi stagnation and blood stasis, phlegm-damp nodules, tumors. People with cold base type tend to give birth to things.), hot base type (where the little finger also has half-moon marks, all belong to the hot type. The half-moon marks are enlarged, indicating that the body is full of Yang Qi , The viscera function is strong, and the physical quality is good, but in the case of disease, the yang energy is too high. The viscera function is hyperactive, and it can be seen that the face is flushed, angry, irritable, constipation, irritability, dry mouth, bitter mouth, and large appetite. Not afraid of cold, restlessness, even high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and stroke. People with hot bottom type are prone to vascular rupture.) and cold-heat cross type (where the border of the half moon mark is blurred, and the color gradually approaches the color of the nail belongs to this category. , Yin and Yang imbalance. In many cases, you should pay attention to observing the half-moon marks, otherwise it will damage the kidney essence. The disease is cured, but the whole person has collapsed. Master the law, the beginning of the half-moon mark is unclear; the middle period is the half-moon mark It began to shrink; in the later period, it was found that the half-moon marks gradually decreased and disappeared). c. The area of ​​the half-moon scar: the area of ​​the half-moon scar is less than 1/5 of the nail, which means lack of energy and poor gastrointestinal absorption. The half-moon scar suddenly becomes dark, shrinks and disappears, and often suffers from wasting diseases, tumors, and bleeding. Wait. It is normal for children (boys before 16 years old and girls before 14 years old) to have no half-moon marks before development, indicating that their kidneys have not yet developed; half-moon marks larger than 1/5 are mostly due to myocardial hypertrophy, prone to heart and brain Diseases such as blood vessels, hypertension, and stroke. d. The color of the half-moon marks: milky white, normal indicates that the essence is strong, good physique, and physical and mental health; grayish white, weak, it affects the digestion and absorption function of the spleen and stomach, and is likely to cause anemia, fatigue and fatigue; pink (and A color point Unclear boundaries), decreased visceral function, excessive physical exertion, yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity, which can easily cause diabetes; purple, easy to cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular, poor blood circulation, insufficient blood supply and oxygen supply, cerebral arteriosclerosis; black, more common in severe heart Disease, tumor or long-term medication, drug and heavy metal poisoning.

5) Half moon mark and five fingers: a. Thumb half moon mark, related to lung and spleen. If the thumb half moon mark appears pink, it means that the pancreas is not functioning properly, which can cause diabetes. This is an early warning signal; b. Index finger half moon mark, Related to the stomach and intestines, when the meniscus of the index finger is pink, it means that the circulation of the stomach and large intestine is poor, and appetite is naturally reduced; c.
