Phlegm-fluid retention (Tan Yin) is a condition caused by the blockage of Qi and meridians, leading to impaired flow of body fluids. Water and fluid qi stagnate in the chest and abdomen, condensing into phlegm. It manifests as patients who were previously obese becoming emaciated, because water-dampness flows into the intestines, causing borborygmus and edema.
Phlegm-fluid retention arises from the congestion of blood vessels, where accumulated drinking water fails to dissipate, thus forming phlegm. Its nature may be cold or hot, solidified or related to indigestion. Symptoms include epigastric and abdominal fullness and stuffiness, shortness of breath, and excessive sleepiness. Since various manifestations exist, it is collectively termed Phlegm-Fluid Retention.
For treating phlegm-fluid retention in the chest and diaphragm, accompanied by hollow borborygmus in the abdomen, indigestion, or vomiting and regurgitation, use the Areca Seed Powder (Binglang San):
