Cystitis, UTI
DH in Bladder: Etiology SL |
This is an Interior Excess Heat pattern. It can arise from exposure to exterior Dampness which can penetrate the Bladder from below. Alternatively it can be caused when Dampness builds up in the Lower Burner (as a result of Kidney and/or Spleen Yang deficiency), which then combines with interior Heat. The Heat can arise after long-standing stagnation of Dampness itself, or from another interior Heat condition.
