Clinical commentary 臨床

4.7.4 sets out four signs and their causes, and this answers two of them: pain worse on opening the mouth, which it puts down to wind in the stomach, and a stench no one can come near, which it puts down to accumulated heat in the gut. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
