Clinical commentary 臨床
血汗, bloody sweat, is a condition the chapter gives a whole section to, and the phenomenon is real though rare — haematidrosis, blood escaping through the sweat glands under extreme stress. Liu Wansu's formula is three minerals and musk.
**Contains cinnabar, which is mercury sulfide, and musk, CITES Appendix I and prohibited in trade. This must not be prepared or taken.** — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
