Oedema and allergies??

[Guest guest]

Could anyone tell me the differentiation for oedema of the legs - fluid on

the ankles? Possibilities?

 

And hypersensitivities, like multiple allergies - does that have a place in

TCM?

 

Thanks

To clarify: very warm oedema, allergies to things eaten, not respiratory.

You might check the plant source of the Soya to see if it is genetically

modified or engineered (GMO) Soy was the first food they experimented on for

widespread use in our food chain. Many people using if for menopause symptoms

are

having a bad reaction. It took a while to figure out it was the GMO Soya. They

had no problems when switched to an organic form of soy supplements.

 

If your horse is sensitive to foods and plants look to the source of

production of you can for all of them. It could also be something they sprayed

on the

feed to preserve or perhaps it was also near pesticides and fertilizers.

 

You might desire to also check to see if some of the other formulas you have

given are having some kind of adverse effect on the horse.

It's just the horse again. We're having exactly the same trouble finding a

Kd formula to suit him, like the Lv formula. Adverse reaction to a

'balanced' Kd formula, and a yin kd formula, and I am just about to try a

real heat-clearing kd formula used for Cushings. No-one has any other ideas

really.

 

He still does not have heat signs such as sweating or drinking a lot, just

the opposite - he is anhydrotic and drinks little. But, his work intolerance

goes very high in hot weather (UK hot that is - only into the 70's) and

inflammation/ischemia in the feet is very hard to avoid. Now I also have

puffy over-warm ankles and sometimes feet.

 

Is anhydrosis connected to anything in particular in TCM? I am told sweat is

the fluid of the heart, but that the lungs control the opening of the pores?

 

But he has always been quite sensitive to feed/plant allergens too. I just

used some soya for the first time in a year, and it could be a reaction to

that, though he never had one before.

Same as previously used - it is Brazilian soya, but I stopped it just in

case. Things I know he reacts to, like buttercup and clover, are in the

organic grass he is eating in the pasture.

Only on the Lv/Sp base formula at the moment - he's been great on that for

months.

 

He is having to stay in more than is good for a horse at the moment, which

is a large part of it - that can't help the Lv situation, but it also seems

connected with summer heat, and I was wondering what the TCM differentials

were - if it was a heat problem.

 

Q: If you have damp and heat, do you have damp heat??

Dear Tanveer,

 

Electronic massage is a very good way to stimulate skin tissues, muscles,

nerves, and the other parts of the body in to action. If you massage the body

it should include the whole body because everything is connected to something

inside of your body.

 

The reason we do reflexology is to stimulate the liver, kidneys, heart, and

other parts of the body inside our bodies. Why? Because they need stimulation

and exercise also just like the outside of our body. Why do we exercise our

body? To stimulate actions in our bodies that are beneficial to the whole.

 

The same is true with exercising or stimulating our insides as mentioned above,

to strengthen them. I have found electronic massage a boon to my health and

solidness of body. Of course each case is different, but I have not known anyone

to have lost anything through massage electronic or otherwise.

 

Sincerely

 

Ray
