The research progress of treating senile constipation from blood stasis / 国际中医中药杂志

ABSTRACT

Senior citizens have many diseases related to blood stasis, which was often overlooked by clinicians, and thus affected the treatment of the disease. Through analyzing and summarizing of related literature in recent five years of senile constipation treated from blood stasis, we found that the blood stasis is closely linked to senile constipation. Blood stasis in the gut forms constipation, and constipation with the passing of time forms blood stasis in returen. Blood stasis and constipation often influence each other.
