Nausea or vomiting is a common symptom affecting individuals across various ages, signifying discomfort in the stomach that often leads to the expulsion of gastric contents through the mouth. This condition can be a response to a myriad of factors ranging from infections and gastrointestinal disorders to more systemic issues. Nausea is the unsettling feeling of needing to vomit, while vomiting is the forceful ejection of stomach contents. These symptoms can occur separately or together, indicating the body's attempt to rid itself of harmful substances or signaling an underlying medical condition.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perceives nausea and vomiting not merely as symptoms but as indicators of an imbalance within the body's energy system. According to TCM, the body is governed by a network of Qi (vital energy), and disruptions to this energy flow can lead to various health issues, including nausea and vomiting.
TCM emphasizes the importance of identifying the underlying disharmony or pattern leading to these symptoms, as it is believed that treating the root cause is essential for achieving lasting relief and restoring the body's natural balance.
