Patient's question:
Hit the corner of the table, the scabbed red bruise has not healed for more than three months. Now there are two faint bruise marks on the cheeks. When pressed with hands, it feels like there are small lumps inside. The girl also feels pain.Around August, during play, she collided with the corner of a square table. The previous treatment and its effectiveness: applied honghua oil and rubbed the face (rather forcefully), but it was not effective. At the same time, the daughter kept crying in pain and was reluctant to rub.
What kind of assistance is needed: How to completely eliminate the bruise marks and lumps? Will it affect the child's future health and well-being?
Doctor's answer:
Your condition is considered to be due to blood clots stagnating in the meridians. You should use hot water for cold compresses daily, and it is recommended to combine this with many internally or externally administered Chinese herbal medicines that promote blood circulation and resolve blood stasis. Avoid using too many cold and cooling herbs, as traditional Chinese medicine states that blood congeals in the presence of cold, which can lead to the formation of masses. Therefore, cold compresses are necessary.Your condition is considered to be due to blood clots stagnating in the meridians.
