Pulse diagnose and acupuncture

tutor

Hi Tutor.
What mean when the three right pulse are strong and the three lefht pulse are weak? And, when one pulse is very weak is necessary to strengthen the concerning organ?

Dear Wilson,
When one side of the pulse is evidently weaker than the other side, we should consider in general the force of Qi and blood.
As you said the right side is strong while the left one is weaker, we usually say the Qi is a bit stronger than blood. Then you might decide which is in disorder according to the patients' manifestations.

When one position of pulse is abnormal for sure we could deal with the corresponding organ, e.g. the left Guan pulse is thready and weaker, we could think of the liver blood deficiency, so to replenish it. But sometimes it is not really weaker or thready but rather twisted, I mean the liver pulse, so we should think of the liver Qi stagnation, or even worse the liver blood stagnation.

Best regards

Dear Tutor.
Yeas. Her menses was prolonged (about 15 days), she had myoma and her pulse was tread. After the threatment the menses return to normal and the myoma reduced.

Souds like a good news!

I think the pulse is not only thready but should also be hesitant, I should despict the pulse, i.e. when you feel the pulse, you don't feel it easily, it is more or less twisted, or shorter than usual, and seems stop here and there, but in fact all the time it is palpable.

Maybe it is not exactly what I said.

Bye!

Dear Tutor
Really the pulse is thread and twist, but not intermitent. It is regular and rapid in the right, and deep, thread and weaker in the left side.

Sure it shouldn't be intermittent!

If so, we have to worry about the heart Qi!!!

Deep, thready and weak pulse does indicate the insufficiency of Qi and blood, but it appears more on the left side, so we should think more of the blood.

tutor

Yes. She has insomnia, unrest and depression.
