Abstract:
This article introduced Professor Wang Xingkuan's academic thoughts and clinical experience in diagnosing and treating burning mouth syndrome(BMS)in perimenopausal women based on the theory of"yin injury and internal dryness".Professor Wang advocates the principle of"treating the root cause of the disease and harmonizing multiple organs".Starting from the unique physiological characteristics of perimenopausal women,he believes that the BMS in perimenopausal women should be attributed to the kidneys,liver,heart,and small intestine.The fundamental cause of the disease is the deficiency of kidney essence and the gradual decline of liver blood,and the key to the onset is the dryness of the kidney,liver,heart,and small intestine.In treatment,the overall strategy is to take"yin injury and internal dryness"as the main guideline,focusing on the liver and kidney,with nourishing and replenishing the liver and kidney as the main approach and clearing heat and moistening as auxiliary methods.The basic formula for treating BMS is a combination of Erdong Decoction and Baihe Dihuang Decoction,which has shown significant clinical efficacy.
