Title: (211) Q & A: Broken bone
Post by: HB KIM on Dec 28, 2007, 04:24 PM
Q:  Hello!  I'm looking for help in putting together a raw herbal formula for a patient who recently was involved in a motorcycle accident.  He suffered six fractures total-collarbone, 3 ribs and 3 hairlines in the pelvis (ASIS, acetabulum and sacral area).  Any suggestions?  He is 29 y.o., tongue is enlarged (particularly at the sides and tip) with normal color and thin white fur, pulses are bowstring, slippery and long.  Previous history of alcohol abuse, depression, migraines and bouts of anger.  Had been working with him based on a diagnosis of damp heat in the Liver and had good success with a modified version of Xiao Chai Hu Tang.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
