     众多的癌症疼痛中就以血瘀疼痛最为常见，中医认为血瘀是肿瘤病变衍生中的其中一个病理产物。淤血阻碍脉络，以至不同则痛。淤血疼痛的特征是：痛如针刺，痛有定处，拒按，夜间极痛。多数为暗色，形态消瘦，皮肤甲错或有瘀斑，瘀点，痛处常触及包块，舌淤暗或瘀斑，舌底脉络淤曲，脉涩。依据《黄帝内经》“血实者宜决之”，“结者散之，留着攻之”的原则，拟活血化瘀，通络止痛为大法：药选丹参，赤芍，桃仁，红花，三菱，莪术，乳香，没药，益母草，土元，王不留行，当归等。临床使用活血化瘀药时应注意辩证施药，区分不同活血药的特点，同时，考虑气血的关系，在应用此类药物一定要配合行气药，这样才能达到“气行则血行”的目的，使活血药发挥更大的作用。
