患者,妇,三十六岁。素体虚弱,产后调摄失宜,面色萎黄,形瘦神疲,语声低微,食少便溏,四肢无力。舌淡苔白,脉虚缓。
A thirty-six-year-old woman, constitutionally frail and poorly nursed after childbirth. She presents with sallow withered complexion, thinness, weary spirit, low weak voice, reduced appetite with loose stool, and limb weakness. Tongue pale with white coat; pulse empty and moderate.
脾胃气虚,运化无力,气血生化不足。
Qi deficiency of spleen and stomach: the transporting-transforming function is weak, so production of qi and blood is insufficient.
服十余剂,食纳渐增,大便转实,面色转润;再合当归、黄芪续服一月,气血渐充,身体康复。
After ten-odd doses appetite grew, stool firmed, and complexion took on a glow. Dang Gui and Huang Qi were then added for another month, gradually filling qi and blood and restoring health.
四君子汤平补脾胃之剂,药味平和,最宜久服。治脾胃虚弱之本,而诸证自除;此即'培土生金'、'补后天以养先天'之意。
Si Jun Zi Tang is a mild tonic for spleen and stomach, gentle enough for long-term use. Treating the root of spleen-stomach deficiency resolves the branch symptoms of itself — the principle of 'banking earth to generate metal' and 'tonifying the acquired to nourish the congenital'.
