How does TCM view {condition_name}?
TCM views psoriasis as manifestations of Blood Heat, Dampness, Blood Stasis, or Yin deficiency that create internal disharmonies affecting skin health and natural regeneration processes.
Understanding the Root Cause
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), psoriasis is commonly associated with Blood Heat, Dampness, Blood Stasis, or Yin deficiency that reflect internal imbalances affecting skin health and regeneration. Emotional stress, dietary factors, and constitutional weaknesses are seen as key contributing factors that trigger flare-ups and perpetuate the condition.
