Hi, I'm not Jason. : ) Dr. Yang at Emperor's used to bring the tender to my attention periodically. It looks thin, limp and water logged. It gets these verticle (along the length of the tongue) ridges along the lateral edges like when you sit in the bathtub too long and your fingertips get all shrively. Its a deficiency thang. -- Al Stone L.Ac. <AlStone http://www.BeyondWellBeing.com Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. Quote
Guest guest Posted May 5, 2001 Report Posted May 5, 2001 What this person referred to as tender was either 1) severe/ pronounced scallops (sharp edges) or 2)a tongue that looked like 'a piece of raw chicken' - Heiko Lade [heiko] Friday, May 04, 2001 3:54 PM Re: jing xu tongue Jason What exactly is a tender tongue?

Guest guest Posted May 5, 2001 Report Posted May 5, 2001 Thanks Jason and Al for the info about jing xu tongues. Has anyone experienced the root of the tongue filling out again after treating the jing xu? Heiko Quote
