Question about Qi in Chapter 1
<p>Dear Miraculous Hands: <br /><br />
Since new to traditional chinese medicine I would like to know what a rebellious Qi is and how to recognize it in a patient? <br />
<br />
Sincerely <br />
<br />

Nice to meet you here in this forum!<br />
You are welcome to study the Medboo courses of traditional Chinese medicine. <br />
Would you please tell me which course are you studying at the moment? <br />
The reason I'm curious about it is that your question is more or less in relations with course B, the diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine, so if you haven't read that course, I think you could have a bit more patience and will be more clear about the concept of rebellious Qi. Please let me know.<br />
Bye! <br />

My question has to do with with the effect of Bitter flavor herbs, which has the effect of eliminating dampness, lowering rebellious Qi etc. <br />
I do not understand what a rebellious Qi is. <br />
<br />
Sincerely <br />

The rebellious Qi is just the eqivalent to "abnormal flow of Qi", or "reversed flow of Qi", i.e. the adverse tendency of the Qi in a certain organ. <br />
As we know, some organs have certain tendency for their functions, e.g. stomach tends to move down, while spleen moves up, heart fire should fall to warm the kidney while the kidney water should rise to nourish the heart Yin. When this tendency of functions becomes abnormal, usually it's toward the opposite direction, it's known as the rebellous Qi. It's one way of the translation. <br />
<br />
By the way, have you ever studied the diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine? Or some other fundamental theories of traditional Chinese medicine? <br />
If yes, I think it's good for you to continue your study; if not, I think you do need to amend this part for they are very essential or dispensible for one who wants to study traditional Chinese medicine.</p>
