Body Pain and internal medical conditions caused by sacroiliac joint dysfunction
Summary
Sacroiliac joint dysfunction is thought to contribute to lower back and leg pain. Leg pain can be particularly severe and may feel similar to pain caused by sciatica or a herniated disc in the lumbar spine. The sacroiliac joint is located next to the base of the spine, below the lumbar spine, and above the coccyx (tailbone). It connects the sacrum (the triangular bone at the base of the spine) to the pelvis (iliac crest). Joints typically have the following characteristics: small and strong, reinforced with strong ligaments around them without much movement, transferring all the force from the upper body to the pelvis (hips) and legs acting as a shock-absorbing structure. The most common symptoms in patients are low back pain and the following sensations in the lower extremities: pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, pelvic/buttock pain, buttock/groin pain, unsteady feeling in the legs (bending, giving in), restless sleep patterns, sitting posture Confusion (inability to sit for long periods of time, sitting on one side), pain from sitting to standing. Causes and Risk Factors Although it is not known exactly how the pain is caused, it is thought that changes in normal joint motion may be the culprit in sacroiliac joint pain. The source of this pain may be caused by any of the following: Excessive movement (hypermobility or instability) Pain usually occurs in the lower back and/or buttocks and may radiate to the groin area. In the case of having too little movement In daily life (i.e. lack of mobility or immobility): Pain usually occurs on one side of the lower back or hip and can radiate down the leg. The pain usually lasts above the knee, but sometimes the pain extends to the ankle or foot. This pain is similar to sciatica (or pain that radiates down the sciatic nerve) and is caused by radiculopathy. Sacroiliac joint dysfunction not only causes limb pain but also indirectly causes various internal medical illnesses. This special report is not a research report but a sharing based on my years of clinical experience. Through this presentation I hope to learn from experts and scholars with your kind feed back.

Reflections On The Inheritance of Traditional Chinese Medicine
Summary
This article summarizes the current situation of overseas TCM transmission. Although the development momentum is good and Chinese traditional Chinese medicine practitioners have made great achievements in their staying countries, it is also worrying that as time goes by, these Chinese traditional Chinese medicine practitioners will withdraw from the stage. For various reasons, today's young and middle-aged traditional Chinese medicine practitioners do not have high aspirations to develop abroad. , so talents can only be cultivated locally. However, the policies of countries around the world are different, and the requirements of traditional Chinese medicine are also different, so the level of TCM is also very different. In view of this, the author put forward suggestions for the inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine and discussed them with colleagues.

Traditional Chinese Medicine Treats Psoriasis
Summary
Psoriasis is a common chronic inflammatory skin disease in which patients experience itching, burning sensation, or dry and cracked skin, with flakes falling off like snowflakes. Although psoriasis is not an infectious disease, it can affect appearance and quality of life, and may cause psychological stress and social distress. Although there is currently no cure, the condition can be effectively controlled through drug treatment. With the treatment of traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, the chance of recurring attacks is reduced, effectively alleviating the patient's condition. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that psoriasis is mainly caused by blood heat, blood stasis or blood deficiency and wind-dryness. The patient has internal heat accumulation that causes blood heat and blood dryness. Blood heat causes wind or blood stasis blocks the meridians, which causes skin rashes when it occurs on the skin. Insufficient blood nutrition leads to blood deficiency that is not enough to moisturize the skin surface, transforming dryness and causing wind. It will cause dryness and itching, resulting in skin scales. Based on clinical experience, when combined with traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, the use of rattan Chinese medicinal materials can have a positive effect on the patient's condition.
