Clinical commentary 臨床

Yukmijihwang-hwan's six medicinals inside a cooling formula — the kidney formula folded into a lung one. The reasoning is the Fire chapter's at 5.24.4: where fire is blazing, enrich the water, and the bleeding is read as the water having failed. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
