In Singapore's fast-paced environment, where long working hours, high stress levels, and irregular eating habits have become the norm, stomach pain and digestive disorders are increasingly common. Many individuals experience recurring discomfort—from mild indigestion to debilitating pain—yet often dismiss it as a temporary inconvenience. At Gong Fang Tang TCM, we recognize that digestive health is foundational to overall well-being, and we offer comprehensive, personalized TCM solutions to address both the symptoms and root causes of gastric distress.
在新加坡的快节奏环境中，长时间工作、高压力和不规律的饮食习惯已成为常态，胃痛与消化系统疾病日益普遍。许多人反复经历不适——从轻微消化不良到难以忍受的疼痛——却常将其视为暂时不便。贡方堂中医深知肠胃健康是整体健康的基石，我们提供全面且个性化的中医解决方案，同时应对症状与根本病因。

胃痛成因：中医与现代医学视角
Traditional Chinese Medicine Perspective
TCM views the stomach as the "sea of nourishment" and its proper functioning dependent on the balance of Qi and the harmony of related organs, particularly the Liver and Spleen. Key imbalances include:
Liver Qi Invading the Stomach (肝气犯胃): Emotional stress causing Liver Qi to disrupt stomach function—common in Singapore's high-pressure work culture.
情绪压力导致肝气横逆犯胃——在新加坡高压工作文化中常见。
Spleen-Stomach Qi Deficiency (脾胃气虚): Chronic overwork and irregular eating weakening digestive energy, leading to fatigue and poor appetite.
长期过劳与饮食不规律耗伤消化功能，导致疲劳与食欲不振。
Damp-Heat in the Stomach (胃中湿热): Consumption of greasy, spicy foods combined with humid climate creating heat and dampness obstruction.
油腻辛辣饮食与湿热气候结合，产生湿热阻滞。
Stomach Yin Deficiency (胃阴不足): Excessive spicy or dry foods, or prolonged stress depleting stomach fluids, causing burning pain and dry mouth.
过量辛辣燥热食物或长期压力耗伤胃津，导致灼痛与口干。
Modern Medical Perspective
Dietary Factors: Irregular meals, excessive caffeine, alcohol, or spicy foods.
饮食因素：进餐不规律，过量咖啡因、酒精或辛辣食物。
Stress & Lifestyle: High cortisol levels affecting gastric secretions and motility.
压力与生活方式：高皮质醇水平影响胃液分泌与蠕动。
Environmental Factors: Singapore's air-conditioned environments leading to cold exposure on abdomen.
环境因素：新加坡空调环境导致腹部受寒。
Underlying Conditions: Gastritis, ulcers, GERD, or functional dyspepsia.
潜在疾病：胃炎、溃疡、胃食管反流或功能性消化不良。
