Professor Xiao Heyin's application of "Triple warmer" theory in treating in eczema infants

Infantile eczema is a common disease in pediatrics, which is caused by internal and external factors. The internal cause is mainly due to the deficiency in lung, spleen and kidney in children, and the external cause is mainly due to the mutual entanglement of wind, dampness, heat and toxin. It is caused by the imbalance of lung, spleen and kidney, the evil gathering in skin, hence the eczema. Professor Xiao Heyin uses the theory of "Triple warmer" to divide it into three stages: "wind evil invading lung", "dampness evil obstructing spleen" and "deficiency in vital Qi and blood stasis". In the treatment, it is also corresponding to "Removing wind and relieving itching", "clearing heat and removing dampness" and "tonifying vital Qi and removing stasis", so as to achieve the effect of eliminating pathogenic factors and calming Yin and Yang.

Abstract: Infantile eczema is a common disease in pediatrics, which is caused by internal and external factors. The internal cause is mainly due to the deficiency in lung, spleen and kidney in children, and the external cause is mainly due to the mutual entanglement of wind, dampness, heat and toxin. It is caused by the imbalance of lung, spleen and kidney, the evil gathering in skin, hence the eczema. Professor Xiao Heyin uses the theory of "Triple warmer" to divide it into three stages: "wind evil invading lung", "dampness evil obstructing spleen" and "deficiency in vital Qi and blood stasis". In the treatment, it is also corresponding to "Removing wind and relieving itching", "clearing heat and removing dampness" and "tonifying vital Qi and removing stasis", so as to achieve the effect of eliminating pathogenic factors and calming Yin and Yang.
