  Abstract: Constipation is a common and serious community disease that seriously affects the health of the elderly. Its pathogenesis is the failure of the large intestine to transmit waste, resulting in difficulty in excreting feces. The physiology of the elderly is complex, and elderly constipation is often caused by multiple organ dysfunctions and a long disease course. As the disease progresses and the syndrome changes, in addition to supplementing deficiencies and eliminating excesses and treating according to the syndrome, the principle of regulating qi runs throughout the clinical treatment. Different syndromes are treated with corresponding drugs to regulate qi: healthy stomach and spleen are treated with tonifying qi and promoting blood; lung qi is obstructed, so it is treated with promoting lung function and unblocking the intestines; damp heat is stuck, so it is treated with resolving dampness and clearing heat; and qi and yin deficiency is treated with nourishing intestines and promoting qi. This article aims to summarize the application of regulating qi in the treatment of elderly constipation.

  Key words: Method of regulating qi; senile constipation; traditional Chinese medicine; common diseases in the community; elderly people
