Sheng Ma Actions and Indications
- Strongly Raises SP Yang (shortness of breath, fatigue, prolapse
of organs due to SP yang qi sinking, acts as an upward guiding herb)
- Release exterior; vents measles (fever, itching,
external wind-heat headache, sore throat or early stage measles)
- Clears toxic heat (fire toxin in upper portion of
body, particularly in mouth and throat: toothache, red swollen painful
gums, lip ulcers, canker sores, painful swollen throat)
