梔子柏皮湯加減治療「蜂窩性組織炎」案例

蜂窩性組織炎屬於傳統中醫「癰疽腫毒」的範疇，發病時局部組織將出現炎性反應，是一種皮膚的深部感染現象，症狀輕微時容易被忽略，嚴重可能導致敗血症。蜂窩性組織炎是一種皮膚組織的深部感染，人體皮膚的皮下脂肪層猶如蜂窩狀的組織，若此部位受到感染，則名之為「蜂窩性組織炎」。發生的原因主要是由於細菌感染，常見有鏈球菌、葡萄球菌、大腸菌、嗜血菌等，其感染的途徑大都來自於傷口，如外傷、拔智齒、香港腳等，細菌由傷口進入人體後，並在組織空隙內生長分佈釋放毒素，若人體的整體免疫系統低下，就會造成傷口發炎的嚴重現象。但在臨床的事實上，也不一定有傷口才會感染，身體其他部位若遭受細菌感染亦有可能形成「蜂窩性組織炎」，包括糖尿病患者、痛風患者、老年人、肝功能受損、免疫力較差或使用免疫抑制劑者、嬰兒、營養不良等。【梔子柏皮湯加減】是天然抗生素無抗藥性可以使用來治療蜂窩性組織炎，【梔子柏皮湯加減】可清熱燥濕、瀉火、解毒、涼血等。對下肢和臉部組織細胞的急性發炎，或病毒、細菌、微生物引起的組織感染，都有非常良好的消炎、修護與強化免疫功能T、B細胞、增強組織的功能。可有效的解決「蜂窩性組織炎」。中藥「抗生素」的救星，更具有重大的意義和潛力, 確是值得醫務工作者廣為重視與運用，若此，將會有深得我心之妙趣。
