Guest guest Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 you might try Spring Wind ointment, i use it often for a variety of things. it is kind of a variation on Shiunko (Lithospermum or Purple Cloud Ointment) so it is good for dry red rashes... also Shiunko is commonly used for moxibustion ointment, so this will work for that as well. rh Chinese Medicine , dkakobad <dkaikobad@c...> wrote: > can someone suggest a topical application for a chronic rash? > > location: retro to L ear on GB and or SJ vessel > nature: dry with some induration. pinkish with some red patches > feel: heated to touch but not very > itching: great intensity worse at night in LV LU time > duration: several years has never really resolved > channel pattern: Shaoyang Heat > 5 E pattern: very clearly LU primary aggressing on GB, LU yin xu, GB > yang excess > > i am treating with appropriate acupuncture with good results, need some > topical to > help out locally > > to my mind the essential quality in this topical would be to balance > heat derived from > a Dry condition > > any help will be appreciated > > dr holmes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
