Description:
A modification of a well-known compound intended for the treatment of painful Bi syndrome (joint blockages), in our case it is intended for the treatment of gout, a specific disease that is laboratory manifested by high uric acid levels and clinically painful joint inflammation - typically in the big toe area. Modern medicine explains that inflammation occurs because uric acid crystallises and the resulting crystals are deposited in the joints, tendons and surrounding tissues. But why in the toe area? Chinese medicine can explain that. These crystals and the inflammatory reaction of the tissues to them represent the so-called damp heat, a pathology that is tied either to the Liver and Gallbladder (mostly through emotional stagnation) or to the Spleen (dietary habits - excess of meat, alcohol, sharp and fatty foods in the diet). It acts as a "glue" that does not allow the vital substances to flow freely, they stagnate, a hot to fiery toxin is produced, and a violent inflammation develops (hotness, redness, swelling, pain and malfunction). This is also why we speak of a "gout attack". But why in the thumb? Right there, at the root of the thumb, on its inner and outer sides, are the warp points of the pathways associated with the production of damp heat: the Liver and Spleen pathways. And it is also this joint that is most stressed when walking.
The Tong Yong Tong Feng Tang blend clears the moist heat of the main meridians as well as the minor side branches. Our modification, which contains rainberry and honeysuckle stems, can enter the smallest joints, perfectly clearing and clearing them. This is aided by the oldenlandia nasturtium clearing the heat and fire toxin and soothing the inflammation. Together with the dill and notopterygium, they also stop the pain. Other herbs address the cause - they cleanse and remove damp heat. Thus, the mixture affects not only the acute symptoms but also the cause why they occur, making it an ideal solution to manage these unpleasant conditions.

-sharp stabbing pain mainly in the joint of the big toe

Notes:
Gout is also referred to as "the disease of kings" or "the disease of the rich" because its important cause tends to be intemperance in meaty, fatty and spicy foods, and also in alcohol. We therefore recommend their strict restriction in treatment and, in the case of alcohol, complete abstinence until the symptoms subside. Thereafter, use in moderation. Dietetics should be directed towards the elimination of moist bitterness.
