Basic Knowledge
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) holds that:
1. Ma (Numbness): Indicates that Qi can flow, but blood cannot.
2. Mu (Wood): Severe numbness indicates that both Qi and blood cannot flow.
3. Suan (Sour): Indicates that the meridians are open, but there is insufficient Qi and blood.
4. Zhang (Distension): Indicates abundant Qi; individuals with this constitution tend to be irritable, and if Qi cannot flow, it leads to distension.
5. Tong (Pain): Simple pain is due to blood stasis.
6. Yang (Itching): Indicates that Qi and blood are flowing; itching occurs during wound healing, which is different from generalized itching.
