Abstract:
This paper summarized the clinical experience of CHEN Tongyun in the treatment of postinflammatory dyspigmentation with the method of unblocking and nourishing qi and blood. It is believed that the core pathogenesis of this disease is poor qi movement and skin blood stasis， for which the method of unblocking and nourishing qi and blood should be used. Postinflammatory pigmentation on the face is mainly caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis， and it is suggested to regulate liver and spleen， move qi and invigorate blood usually with modified Tonghua Decoction （通化汤）. Postinflammatory hypopigmentation is mainly due to qi and blood depletion， for which the treatment should be fortifying the spleen and strengthening kidney， replenishing qi and generating blood， and modified Yangfu Decoction （养复汤） is commonly used. Simultaneously， medicinals of ascending and descending functions， moving qi and blood， warming yang and nourishing yin should be combined， and the results from modern pharmacological research should be considered.
