explain basic pathogenesis for Wei Zheng
lack of nourishment and moisture to sinews
Wei Zheng External Heat Pathogenesis
external heat or prolonged febrile DZ cause Lu heat which injures fluids and impairs D&D, nourishment not sent to sinews and muscle, extremities become weak and flaccid
Wei Zheng exposure to damp bad diet Pathogenesis
exposure to damp/bad diet result in accum of dampness in sinews and muscles, transforms into damp Heat, obstructs flow Qi and Blood, consumes BF, sinews and muscles lose nourishment
wei Zheng Weak Constitution SP/ST Vacuity Pathogenesis
inefficient rotting and ripening, T&T, result in Qi, Blood, BF, Essence Vacuity (Qi Xu impairs circ, blood and BF Xu fail to nourish and moisten sinews)
Wei Zheng Weak Constitution LV/KI Vacuity Pathogenesis
LV governs Sinews, stores Blood to nourish sinews, KI governs bones and stores essence that produces marrow to nourish. If LV/KI vacuous unable to support their tissues
