Patient's question:
I got a cold after giving birth and have been experiencing joint pain all over my body for 22 years now, which has led to neurasthenia. I have difficulty defecating and my urine is hot. In the past, I used moxibustion, which helped me defecate and sleep when exposed to heat, but moxibustion is indeed too slow. Shan Guamin said it could take up to three years for the condition to heal on its own. I saw online that roasted fennel treats arthritis, and the condition healed in a month. I wonder if my postpartum wind can be cured with roasted fennel? Seeking help: Can postpartum wind be cured with roasted fennel?Doctor's answer:
