Abstract:
This thesis studies professor WANG Shou-chuan’s clinical experience in treating atopic dermatitis with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Professor Wang believes that the key pathogeneses of atopic dermatitis are wind, dampness and toxins. The main therapy is clearing away wind, resolving dampness and removing toxins. It is differentiated as infant period, child period and adult period according to the patients’ age. Xiaofeng san, Bixieshenshi tang and Yangxuedingfeng tang are three main prescriptions in treating this disease. It is emphasized that toxin is the most important pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis, and removing toxins should be used in every period. Moreover, professor Wang is good at using insect medicine to clear away wind and stop itch.
