ABSTRACT

Chronic urticaria is a dermatological allergic disease with an uncertain etiology and pathogenesis. It presents challenges such as high recurrence rate and impact on the physical and mental health of patients. Traditional Chinese medicine has been continuously exploring the understanding of this disease, of which the Xuanfu theory suggests a close correlation between the pathogenesis of chronic urticaria and Xuanfu obstruction. By analyzing and utilizing the Ma Huang Lian Qiao Chi Xiao Dou Tang in the treatment of chronic urticaria, the aim is to open up the Xuanfu, restore its normal function, regulate its opening and closing, and expel pathogenicfactors from the pores of the Xuanfu. This treatment approach aims to enrich the theoretical basis of skin disease treatment. A clinical case study is also attached.
