Patient's question:
When I was pregnant, my cheeks and T-zone were flushed, with many small, pimple-like bumps, and my face was very, very red. After giving birth, my face is still flushed, but I'm not sensitive skin.Doctor's answer:
This condition is often caused by internal heat and external wind pathogens. It includes different types such as lung heat, damp-heat in the spleen and stomach, heat-toxin, blood stasis, and phlegm coagulation. Treatment should focus on clearing and ventilating the lungs and stomach. The formula can be modified from "Pipah Qingfei Yin" (Loquat Clear Lung Decoction).
