Clinical commentary 臨床

Ten warm aromatics at an even don with nothing cold in the formula at all — the most uniformly warming prescription in the section. The sign list is worth reading as a whole: stabbing pain, a yellow complexion, wasted flesh and diarrhoea together describe a patient not absorbing what they eat, and the formula treats that rather than the distension. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
