Newborns with acholic stools due to biliary atresia: Traditional Chinese Medicine suggests surgery is not the only option
The birth of a newborn at home is the greatest joy for first-time parents. However, the chance of biliary atresia occurring in Taiwanese newborns is about 0.03%, which is much higher than the average of one in 15,000 to 25,000 infants in foreign countries. If the baby continues to show jaundice, yellowish stools, or even grayish-white stools two weeks after birth, one should be highly alert to the possibility of biliary atresia.
The standard procedure for treating biliary atresia in newborns in hospitals is usually surgery. However, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, if it is not an emergency, surgery may not be the only option.
Although science is advanced nowadays, traditional Chinese medicine doctorr Sheng-Pu Lee believes that it is worth discussing whether it is necessary for such a young infant to undergo the risk of surgery. Based on the clinical experience of traditional Chinese medicine, for some mild cases, after a few doses of medication targeted at the liver, the bile ducts may open and clear naturally.
In recent news, several young students have been reported to have donated their liver to save their parents. Some even worked hard to lose 17 kilograms in order to reduce fatty liver and meet the criteria for liver donation. While this has touched the heart of Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee, an authority on liver disease in traditional Chinese medicine, he also couldn’t help but lament that the mysterious natural biochemistry and adjustment methods for the liver in Chinese medicine theory are still relatively unknown.
Liver transplant? Why not consider changing doctors, changing perspectives, and changing the concept of medicine? Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee emphasizes that while donating a liver to save a loved one is admirable and brings tears to people’s eyes, is this the only option? Absolutely not.
Not rejecting surgery or denying the effectiveness of Western medicine, Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee says that using the chemical mechanism of liver disease jaundice as an example, when bilirubin soars to 39 or 40, the liver is completely unable to function. However, in such a situation, traditional Chinese medicine still has a strong ability to improve symptoms. Not only do you need to use medicines that promote bile excretion, but also use warm and hot drugs to turn the situation around. This complementary use of medication is precisely the power of traditional Chinese medicine to bring people back from the dead.
For some cases that are not in an emergency state, Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee believes that traditional Chinese medicine can be considered as the first option for treatment. Clinical evidence shows that it can be effective in almost a week. If there is no improvement, surgery can still be chosen without delay.
In fact, many hospitals in Taiwan now agree with this view and have started to introduce a combined Chinese and Western medicine inpatient treatment model. However, it is still limited to serious illnesses such as cancer, and Chinese medicine still only plays a supportive role.
According to Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee, in the past, some patients were scolded by doctors or even threatened to be kicked out of the hospital for trying Chinese medicine. This should not be the case, and Western medicine should be more open-minded. If patients can find licensed Chinese medicine practitioners, even during hospitalization, they should be allowed to try this type of treatment. Instead of refusing to let patients try new methods even when they are helpless.
