ITCHNESS AND SWELLING DUE TO INSECT BITES
30 yr old male patient cc itchness due to insect bites for 2 days (right foot near kd 6 area)
the affected area looks red and slightly swollen (about 2 inch in diameter)
TX kd 10 + (about 30% better)
Lu 10 - almost no change. then 20 min later swelling looked about 30% less.
next day patient said there was no more improvement.
textbook says itchness is due to heat. another text says to reduce sp3.
perhaps (based on sp 3 -) idea one should reduce HT which is sp3 - kd 10 + HT 3 +
then see if it works better.
