Guest guest Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 I often come upon patients with impacted phlegm on arms legs torso. The 'feel' is life hard India Rubber, soft, even stony with the slightest 'give'. As often there may still be elements of Heat and one would fear releasing some phlegm to run upwards to HT or head. Is there a topical application, a salve or ointment which locally breaks up phlegm? Dr. Holmes Keikobad MB BS DPH Ret. DIP AC NCCAOM LIC AC CO & AZ www.acu-free.com - 15 CEUS by video.

Guest guest Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 Dr K Not come across any such product myself but have successfully used a dermal roller to help break down some of these stubborn attachments of phlegm that are more surface. It's a long term treatment with just acupuncture but I suspect that chinese herbs would step things up some.
