Case Report on TCM Nursing for a Patient with Thyroid Nodules of Qi Stagnation and Phlegm Coagulation Type
This study presents a case of non-pharmacological comprehensive intervention for a patient with goiter (thyroid nodules) of qi stagnation and phlegm coagulation type, constructing a TCM characteristic nursing model of "syndrome differentiation-based treatment—emotion management—dietary regulation". A systematic health management plan was formed by integrating non-pharmacological interventions such as acupoint application, five-element music therapy, emotional counseling, and medicinal diet therapy. Among these, "five-element music combined with Taichong and Neiguan acupoint massage" showed remarkable efficacy in improving the patient's anxiety. This program not only alleviated symptoms such as anterior cervical distension and pain and promoted the reduction of thyroid nodule volume but also established a multi-dimensional intervention system covering physical, psychological, and social aspects, providing clinical reference for the standardized practice of non-pharmacological TCM nursing in thyroid nodule management.
