Tong ren for boils, furuncles, carbuncles

By Archived User | Updated: Dec 31, 2021 | Published: Dec 31, 2021

Can anyone suggest a tong ren protocol that might help with painful, recurring boils, furuncles, carbuncles in the armpits and groin.

You would also want to consider acupuncture and/or herbal medicine for these as the underlying causes generally respond well. For tong ren you would want to help the immune system, the blood, and the liver and colon. So T1, T2, T3, T7, T9 (right) and L5.
