Advanced Diagnosis Quiz 2 Flashcards
1
Q
DIAGNOSIS: no sweating, aversion to cold, headache, body ache, stuffy nose, heavy voice, sneezing, runny nose, itchy throat, cough
A
Exterior wind cold (no sweat)
2

A
wind cold attacks exterior and is trapped in the superficies, cold is a yin evil. It’s property is coagulation so the yang is easily damaged. Yang is trapped by coagulation of yin and there is no sweating
6
Q
DIAGNOSIS: no sweating, aversion to cold, fever, aching limbs, stuffy nose, heavy voice, irritability, sore throat, cough with yellow sputum, reddish urine, constipation
A
Interior heat and exterior cold (no sweat)
7

A
white or thin yellow coating
8
Q

A
floating, tight, or slow
13
Q
cold damp attack superficial (no sweat) pathogenesis
A
cold dampness is trapped in the superficies. cold is astringing and dampness is sticky. yang is being trapped and interstices are obstructed, so sweat cannot come out
14

17
Q
disharmony between wei and ying qi (spontaneous sweating) pathogensis
A
deficient constitution and weak defensive qi, so interstices are insecure. Nutritive yin is deficient, so easily attacked by exterior wind causing Yin and Yang imbalance. In turn, skin pores cannot open and close properly, so there is obvious aversion to wind after sweating
18

222
kidney yang's function of water
steaming
223
bladder qi's function of water
transforming
224
san jiao's function of water
providing a passageway that relies on qi transformation
225
DIAGNOSIS: starts from edema of eyelid, acute onset, followed by four limbs or whole body edema, aversion to wind and cold, accompanied by fever, joint soreness and pain, scanty urination
wind cold attacking lung (wind water combating) (puffiness and edema)
226
wind cold attacking lung (puffiness and edema) tongue
thin white coating
227
wind cold attacking lung (puffiness and edema) pulse
floating, tight
228
wind cold attacking lung (puffiness and edema) location
lung, upper jiao water passageway
229
wind cold attacking lung (puffiness and edema) pathogenesis
wind cold attack from the exterior, lung's function of dispersing water is impaired. This affects the bladder, causing urinary dysfunction, water metabolism disorders, edema (yang water edema).
230
DIAGNOSIS: acute eyelid or facial edema, fever, aversion to wind, cough, inflammation of throat, sore throat, scanty short urination, yellow urine
wind heat attacking lung (puffiness, edema)
231
wind heat attacking lung (puffiness, edema) tongue
slightly red tip, thin yellow coating
232
wind heat attacking lung (puffiness, edema) pulse
floating rapid
233
wind heat attacking lung (puffiness, edema) location
lung, upper jiao water passageway obstruction
234
wind heat attacking lung (puffiness, edema) pathogenesis
wind heat attack lung, lung's clearing function is impaired. lung is the upper source of water, lung qi stagnation causes impaired clearing function, then causes blockage in water passageways, showing signs of edema
235
DIAGNOSIS: edema of the limbs, chronic progression of disease "usually starts from the four limbs, abdomen, but most obvious in the legs, heaviness of body, fatigue, chest oppression, bland taste in mouth, clear and short urination
Dampness obstructing the spleen - due to spleen qi deficiency (puffiness and edema)
236
Dampness obstructing the spleen - due to spleen qi deficiency (puffiness and edema) tognue
white greasy coating
237
Dampness obstructing the spleen - due to spleen qi deficiency (puffiness and edema) pulse
deep and slow
238
Dampness obstructing the spleen - due to spleen qi deficiency (puffiness and edema) pathogenesis
spleen qi deficiency unable to transform and transport water. May be due to dampness obstructing spleen, walking in the rain, living in a damp environment for a long time, wind cold invasion, all these leading to dampness accumulating in the middle jiao. Water cannot descend, which will cause edema, spleen governs the four limbs. this type of edema will start from the four limbs. - yin water edema
239
DIAGNOSIS: edema mostly below the waist, frequent recurrence, pitting edema, fatigue, cold limbs, poor appetite, loose stool, scanty clear urination
Spleen yang deficiency (puffiness and edema)
240
Spleen yang deficiency (puffiness and edema) tongue
pale, thin white moist coating
241
Spleen yang deficiency (puffiness and edema) pulse
deep, slow
242
Spleen yang deficiency (puffiness and edema) pathogenesis
resulted from untreated chronic illness of excessive type, over strain, or spleen deficiency affecting the transforming and transporting function. Yang deficiency cannot regulate water leading to pitting edema of lower body from the waist down, often recurring. - yin water edema
243
DIAGNOSIS: whole body edema, usually starts from the waist and legs, worse around the ankles, lower back and knee sore weak and heavy, damp cold in the scrotum and genitals, cold limbs, scanty clear urination, worse symptoms than spleen yang deficiency, with lower back and ankle edema

246
Kidney yang deficiency (puffiness and edema) pathogenesis
kidney yang edema is worse than spleen yang edema, usually manifests as whole body edema. Kidney resides in the lower back and waist and belongs to the lower jiao, when lower jiao water passage is obstructed, edema will begin at the waist and legs - yin water edema
247
DIAGNOSIS: gradual facial and four limb edema, pale lusterless or sallow complexion, pale lips, dizziness, palpitations, shortness of breath, poor appetite, fatigue, lack of energy, pale signs, less serious edema

thin, scanty coating
249
qi and blood deficiency (puffiness and edema) pulse
deficient thin weak
250
qi and blood deficiency (puffiness and edema) pathogenesis
usually from spleen/stomach qi deficiency, leading to poor transporting and transforming function or chronic illness depleting both qi and blood, or zang fu deficiency causing poor water metabolism function - yin water edema
251
what organs are easily frightened
