In TCM, a disease or a symptom might be caused by one factor or two even three factors. When diagnosing a disease, TCM doctors must follow the therapeutic principle "Syndrome Dfferentiation", and then "Suit the Remedy to the Case". In order to make a definite and accurate diagnosis for you, it's important and necessary that you send your detailed health information, including disease duration, age, sex, height, weight, family history, tongue conditions, complexion, urine, stool, diet, sleep, sweat, energy, mood (emotion), etc. These materials will help us to create you a positive and valuable diagnosis. So, if you would like to get helps from us, please contact us through the Navbar "Create My Diagnosis" or "Leave Your Message". Once we have received your inquiry, we'll give you a satisfactory answer as soon as possible. When western medicine fails, Chinese medicine nails it!

Syndrome differentiation and treatment
In clinic, the disease is mainly classified into the syndromes of invasion of pathogenic wind, ocular accumulation of pathogenic wind-heat, pathogenic damp-heat plus wind, and endopathic wind due to blood asthenia. The treatment, therefore, should include internal and externalmethods. The internal treatment principle, based on the discrimination of asthenia and sthenia, should focus on removing wind to relieve itching. In sthenia cases, the methods of removing wind, heat and dampness should be applied while, in asthenia cases, nourishing blood and dispelling wind to stop itching should be applied with the support of proper external treatment ways.
