Abstract:
[Objective]Research on treatment based on syndrome differentiation of palmar hyperhidrosis(PH), for the purpose of systematically and comprehensively understanding PH, and to improve clinical curative effect. [Methods]The pathological basis, clinical manifestation and therapeutic principle and methods are systematically summarized.[Result]PH is relevant to the cold, heat, deficiency and excess of taste, disorder of Qi and blood of heart, and the block of damp and hot. Exuberant heat in Yangming, deficiency cold of spleen and stomach, and food stagnation can lead to PH. Malnutrition of heart spirit and dysfunction of heart caused by insufficiency of heart yin also contribute to PH. Another factor is the block of damp-heart. The treatment for PH caused by exuberant heat in Yangming is Baihu Decoction or Chengqi Decoctions. PH caused by deficiency cold of spleen and stomach can be cured by Lizhong Decoction. The treatment for PH caused by food stagnation is Baohe Wan. Insufficiency of heart yin and disharmony between Ying and Wei need to nourish blood for tranquillization and harmonize Ying and Wei. The block of damp or damp-heat leading to PH need drug resolving dampness with aromatics or clearing heat and promoting diuresis for cure. [Conclusion]PH has a complex pathogenesis, which needs treatment based on syndrome differentiation.
