What is qi stagnation and blood stasis


Dedicated to your healing journey.
Qi stagnation and blood stasis is both a word and two words, one is qi stagnation and the other is blood stasis. If there is qi stagnation, there will be blood stasis, so it is called qi stagnation and blood stasis. In traditional Chinese medicine, qi is the commander of blood, blood is the mother of qi, qi is the vanguard of blood, that is, qi wants to promote the operation of blood, so it is called qi as the commander of blood. Blood is a carrier of qi, that is, blood carries qi and moves in human body. Qi in turn drives blood to move in human body, so blood is called mother of qi. Therefore, if qi stagnation symptoms are shown, it means that there is no strength to promote normal operation of blood, so it is called qi stagnation and blood stasis in traditional Chinese medicine. Qi stagnation and blood stasis need to be regulated on the basis of differentiation. Xiaoyao Pill and Chaihu Shugan Powder are sharp weapons in traditional Chinese medicine. Promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis is mainly to regulate liver qi. If liver qi is not smooth, qi stagnation and blood stasis will be caused.
