Abstract

|
|
There are two kinds of body fluid metabolism in Traditional Korean Medicine based on ¡®Internal Classic¡¯(¡ºÒ®Ìè¡»); one is metabolism of body fluid1)(òÐäû) meaning metabolism of physiological substance, and another is metabolism of humor meaning a metabolic process that excretes waste out of the body. ¡®Phlegm-retained fluid2)¡¯(ÓÃëæ) is a typical pathological condition caused by abnormal fluid metabolism in Traditional Korean Medicine. As a result of reviewing the literature on ¡®phlegm-retained fluid¡¯(ÓÃëæ), the following facts were found; ¡®Phlegm-retained fluid¡¯(ÓÃëæ) is formed by abnormal state of metabolism of body fluid(òÐäû). In other words, because of the action of various etiologies, qi(Ѩ) and body fluid(òÐäû) metabolism can have abnormal conditions and these metabolic disorders cause formation of ¡®phlegm-retained fluid¡¯(ÓÃëæ). Treatments for ¡®phlegm-retained fluid¡¯(ÓÃëæ) include the following: Eliminating the causes of illness, recovery of metabolism of qi(Ѩ) and body fluid(òÐäû), and functional recovery of pancreas and kidney related to body fluid(òÐäû) metabolism. These treatments are distinguished from promotion of sweating(Û¡ùÒ) and helping urination, the treatments for humor metabolism abnormality.
