Guest guest Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 I was practicing some fire cupping on my friend the other day and she sustained a small burn, with a raised portion that looks like a blister. I'm pretty sure it's a first degree burn, we treated it with cold for about 20 min or so and since the skin hadn't broken, i applied vitamin e oil on it to help the healing process and reduce possibility of scarring. however, i'm wondering if there is a good tcm herbal salve that i can use for this? are there herbs to reduce scarring? i think that soem of the 90 % alcohol remained in the cup when i put it on her, and caused the burn. are there any good online resources or videos that can walk me through this tx process? it's been so long since i had that 15 min class demo and a refresher would be nice. marie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 Ching Wan Hung is an ointment commonly used in TCM hospitals for even serious burns. Have used it mainly for people with hot wter scalds. Alleviates pain and increases healing, no scars.  Hugo  ________________________________ Hugo Ramiro http://middlemedicine.wordpress.com http://www.middlemedicine.org ________________________________ maries <shamanist1 Chinese Medicine Wed, 12 May, 2010 11:59:51 recs for burn ointment/tx?  I was practicing some fire cupping on my friend the other day and she sustained a small burn, with a raised portion that looks like a blister.

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 I also like the Ching Wan Hung a lot. Also, you can use Da Huang powder, mixed witha little sesame or jojoba oil. Both are staining so make sure your patient wears dark clothing.
