Mel is a 33 year old lady who has a herpes breakout a year and a half ago. When it flared up, her pains were irritating, burning, and interefering with her daily routines. She has been coming to our clinic for variety of reasons but started herbal treatment when she had a recent reoccuring flare-up with herpes a few months ago. Her body responded to our herbal treatment very well so she continued to get herbal formula for Herpes Prevention. She had success with acupuncture treatments, too. But she found herbal formula less invasive to her body.
The last time she had herpes flare-up, she felt tingling sensation and occasional itchy which can last few weeks in her vaginal region.
Her pulse is moderate and slight slippery. Her tongue color is Mild to moderate purple, slight Swollen and her tongue coat is greasy.
