Zang Fu- Spleen

The spleen is in charge of transformation and transportation, is the source of qi and blood, and also controls blood.

Spleen qi deficiency, as well as spleen yang deficiency, are often characterized by fatigue with weak digestive symptoms.

Spleen qi sinking symptoms often include bearing down sensations, diarrhea, organ prolapse as well as varicose veins.

When the spleen is unable to control the blood, fatigue with weak digestive symptoms, as well as bleeding can be seen.

When damp cold invades the spleen, gastric fullness, abdominal distention, heavy head/body, slippery tongue, and a slow and slippery pulse can often be experienced.
