How does TCM view {condition_name}?
TCM views eczema as manifestations of internal disharmonies including Heat, Dampness, or Blood deficiency affecting the Lung, Spleen, and Liver systems that govern skin health.
Understanding the Root Cause
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), eczema is often linked to Heat, Dampness, or Blood deficiency, as well as imbalances in the Lung, Spleen, and Liver systems that affect skin health. These patterns may be influenced by diet, stress, environmental factors, or genetic predisposition, requiring treatment that addresses internal causes rather than just external skin symptoms.
