Skin Rashes

Skin rashes are often red, itchy and hot to the touch. In Chinese medicine this is thought to be due to heat in the lungs or large intestines. They are what is called the Metal element and the skin is associated with the Metal element. Since heat dries things out the condition can also include “Yin deficiency” also. We have points to treat all that. Heat in Chinese medicine can be thought to relate to inflammation or infection in Western medicine. There is also ways I can use FSM to treat inflammation, infections as well as calm an immune response and an allergic response. And acupuncture and FSM can be used together.
