If you have persistent excessive gas, abdominal pain, or bloating and can't get relief, it's a good idea to head to your doctor. If the problem is intestinal gas, he can recommend ways to provide relief. And if it's a more serious problem, you can catch it early and get started on treatment.
Acne is an inflammatory condition of the skin partially caused by increased sebum production and an abnormality of the bacteria found normally on the skin. The result can be red and enlarged areas on the skin, whiteheads or blackheads.
From the Ayurvedic point of view, acne is the result of high Pitta (fire, heat) moving under the skin and breaking out in pimples. From the angle of Chinese medicine, the main cause for acne is too much Yang energy. The heat of Yang can result in the flow of excessive toxic substances into the bloodstream, thus causing inflammation and swelling.
