Can gypsum decoction be used to treat abdominal distension?

That depends on what causes bloating. Generally speaking, abdominal distension is caused by two reasons. The first type is spleen deficiency and qi stagnation, which is not conducive to transportation. Abdominal distension caused by this situation cannot be decocted with plaster! Otherwise, the diarrhea will be worse! In this case, cooking porridge with 50 grams of yam, 250 grams of coix seed and 0/5 grams of poria cocos/kloc at 9: 00 in the morning can strengthen the spleen, eliminate dampness, replenish yang and replenish qi, and solve the problem of deputy officials caused by spleen deficiency. The second situation is abdominal distension caused by stagnation of stomach qi, and it is necessary to dredge stomach qi to solve the problem. This kind of abdominal distension can be decocted with plaster, and the effect is excellent. Generally, the problem of abdominal distension caused by stagnation of stomach qi can be solved in a few days. So if you have abdominal distension caused by stagnation of stomach qi, it is very beneficial to decoct water with gypsum. In addition to abdominal distension, there are also problems such as belching, vomiting, stomach fire and excessive internal heat, so if you have one of these problems, taking plaster decoction can effectively solve the problem of abdominal distension. This is my answer to your question. Thank you.
