Abstract:
The pathogenesis of gouty arthritis contains internal cause and external cause. The deficiency of Zang Fu organs is the internal cause and the invasion of external pathogens is the external cause, which is related to the liver, spleen and kidney. In clinical treatment, we should grasp the pathological factors such as dampness, heat and blood stasis, and treat this diseaseaccording to different stages and types, anddeal with both symptoms and the root cause. Clinically, orally taken Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), acupuncture, collateral pricking and bleeding, and external application of TCM are the common methods to treat this disease and combining various methods together has better curative effect, which could significantly relieve the pain and alleviate inflammation with safetiness. However, the operation methods and standards of the existing studies are not unified, which needs long-term follow-up, large samples and high-quality studies.
