Abstract:
[Objective]To summarize the clinical academic experience of Professor HU Guojun,a famous Chinese medicine doctor,in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis based on the theory of"host and client interaction".[Methods]Professor HU Guojun's experience in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis based on the theory of"host and client interaction"was summarized from four aspects,including theoretical tracing,etiology,pathogenesis,treatment and medication characteristics,by consulting doctors,collating typical medical records and consulting relevant literature,and a medical case was attached to support it.[Results]Professor HU believes that the etiology and pathogenesis of ankylosing spondylitis are highly consistent with the"interaction between host and client"theory.In clinical practice,he emphasizes the principle of"supporting the vital energy and dispelling pathogenic factors,while differentiating between host and guest."He advocates that tonifying deficiency should involve examining the differences between Yin and Yang,and expelling pathogenic factors should involve distinguishing the characteristics of the pathogenic Qi.He skillfully uses blood-enriching and flesh-tonifying substances,insect-based medicines,vine and stem herbs and warming and tonifying drugs to strengthen the host energy and expel the client energy,resulting in significant therapeutic effects.In the attached case study,Professor HU used the principle of dissolving the entanglement between host and guest as the main treatment approach.By addressing both the root cause and symptoms simultaneously,he ultimately achieved the strengthening of the host energy and the expulsion of the pathogenic factors,leading to the resolution of the chronic condition.[Conclusion]Professor HU has innovatively applied the"host and client interaction"theory in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis,yielding excellent results.This approach can serve as a new reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of ankylosing spondylitis.
