Soft lump at rear base of neck - help?

[Guest guest]

Questions: Ideas regarding the swelling. Dangerous in

the future? Importance of draining it or not? How to

get it to reduce and so on. Thank you for any ideas or

information!

 

Male, 32

6' 4 " , 230 lbs, weight fits build, except his middle

which carries his extra weight (20 lbs)

 

Has had a moveable, soft, painless lump at the rear

base of neck for over a decade. It has a dot at the

centre (opening to an oil gland). In western medicine

it looks like a sebaceous cyst.

Tongue: smallish body, light red or pink, thin,

yellowish sometimes greasy coating. Gloss low.

He has a history of constant gas and flatulence,

strong odour.

His appetite is good, as is his energy. He plays a

frisbee team sport.

He used to eat a large amount of dairy and bread.

He sleeps well and does not have much stress.

 

He went on a few courses of " Bo He Wan " and " Nei Xiao

Luo Li Wan " , after which his prior signs of food

stagnation leading to phlegm heat lessened by about

half, and his cyst seemed to stop growing for a few

years.

 

Currently:

His tongue coating is medium thickness, sometimes

greasy, white, sometimes a little yellow.

His gas is greatly reduced, and he has reduced his

dairy consumption by three-quarters.

Hi,

As per ur doubt i can say that yellow greasy tongue indicates phlegm patterns

so u can try acupuncture for his problem.

Pts can be selected from spleen, stomach, liver & urinary bladder channels.

 

For the lump which is palpable we can try to bleed the jingwell pt of the

particular channel; on which the lump is lying.

 

Best regards,

 

Chintamani
