Solution Overview

Problem

Current treatments for cervical and lumbar spondylosis caused by hyperostosis, such as physical therapy, surgical therapy, and oral medications, are either ineffective, invasive, or have toxic side effects, necessitating a drug with definite drug actions, less toxic side effects, and suitable for long-term use.

Innovation Solution

An externally applied medicated wine composed of Arisaematis Rhizoma, Typhonium giganteum Engl., and baijiu, with specific ratios and properties, to treat cervical and lumbar spondylosis, promoting blood circulation, resolving swelling, and relieving pain.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Object-affected harmful factors

If oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are used, then pain relief is achieved, but toxic side effects increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetoxic side effectsVSAvoidpain relief effectiveness
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses externally applied medicated wine as an intermediary treatment modality between oral medications and physical therapy. The wine formulation with specific Chinese herbal ingredients acts as a mediator that delivers therapeutic effects locally to the affected areas without requiring systemic absorption, thus avoiding the toxic side effects of oral NSAIDs while maintaining pain relief effectiveness

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The invention applies local treatment through external application of medicated wine directly to the affected cervical or lumbar regions. This local quality approach concentrates the therapeutic action at the site of hyperostosis and spondylosis, providing effective pain relief without distributing toxic substances systemically throughout the body

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Adaptability or versatility

If physical therapy is used, then local treatment is provided, but overall adjustment capability is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoverall adjustment capabilityVSAvoidlocal treatment effectiveness
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The medicated wine formulation serves multiple functions simultaneously: it provides local anti-inflammatory effects, promotes blood circulation, relaxes muscles, and addresses the underlying hyperostosis. This multi-functionality allows the single treatment to achieve both local relief and overall systemic adjustment, overcoming the limitation of physical therapy's localized effect

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Reliability

If surgical therapy is used, then definitive treatment is achieved, but patient acceptance decreases due to trauma

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetreatment effectivenessVSAvoidsurgical trauma
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The invention converts the potentially harmful invasive nature of surgical intervention into a beneficial non-invasive treatment. By using externally applied medicated wine, the treatment achieves definitive therapeutic effects for hyperostosis and spondylosis without causing surgical trauma, blood loss, or recovery complications, making it highly acceptable to patients who would otherwise reject surgical options

Inventive Principle:
Principle #22Blessing in disguise (Convert harm into benefit)

4Adaptability or versatility

If traditional Chinese medicine formulae are used, then treatment coverage is broad, but drug action clarity decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetreatment coverageVSAvoiddrug action clarity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts and isolates the key therapeutic ingredients from complex traditional Chinese medicine formulae, creating a simplified wine formulation with clearly defined active components. This extraction process maintains broad treatment coverage for various spondylosis conditions while providing clear understanding of the specific drug actions of each ingredient, eliminating the confusion of overly complex formulations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Applied Scientific Principles

This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.

Function Achieved in This Case

The medicated wine effectively treats cervical and lumbar spondylosis with minimal side effects, providing significant therapeutic benefits and analgesia, as demonstrated by clinical cases.

Implementation Method 1

Arisaematis Rhizoma is bitter, dry, pungent, dispersing, warm, and toxic, and has strong potency... Typhonium giganteum Engl. can eliminate dampness and phlegm, dispel pathogenic wind, stop spasms, detoxify and resolve masses; when externally applied with baijiu, it can promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis

Methodology Applied
Scientific EffectPharmacological action:

Implementation Method 2

Acting as guide medicine, baijiu promotes drug absorption and may cause local irritation reactions to generate a stronger stimulation and local therapeutic effect of the drug on the surface of the site of action

Methodology Applied
Scientific EffectDrug absorption: Absorption (physical)

Publication Date: 2025.10.02 WU YONGFANG

AI summary

An externally applied medicated wine for treating cervical spondylosis or lumbar spondylosis caused by hyperostosis and an application thereof, wherein the medicated wine is made of Arisaematis Rhizoma, Typhonium giganteum Engl., and baijiu (Chinese distilled spirits). With few types of drug ingredients, low cost, and no toxic side effects, the invention rationally adopts the compatibility of Arisaematis Rhizoma and Typhonium giganteum Engl., and takes baijiu as a guide drug, which can achieve the effects of dissipating masses, resolving swelling, promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, activating collaterals and quickly relieving pain. It can effectively treat cervical spondylosis and lumbar spondylosis caused by hyperotosis, and hyperostosis.
