Clinical commentary 臨床

A sore throat treated by nourishing the blood — for the one that comes on in the evening in a depleted patient and is not helped by cooling. 5.5's fire is divided into the repletion and vacuity kinds, and this answers the second. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
