Hello.

My name is Dr. Coco.

Welcome back to our clinic.

Last time after we performed acupuncture on you,

How did you feel?

You feel much better? That's great.

What is your reason for visiting us today?

I understand.

You want me to

inspect your face, right?

Alright.

I can do that.

I will put on a pair of gloves.

Let's begin.

Can I come closer to you?

Thank you.

Let me first look at your forehead.

This area

Let's look at this side.

The left cheek.

I think

maybe there is a bit

of redness?

Next let's look at your right

cheek

This side looks normal.

Next let's look at your eyes.

Please look into my eyes.

I think

there's some redness

some swelling

next your chin

Please look up a little

There seems to be some spots on this side

acne

Next let's look at your

temples

I'll come to this side

Please look ahead.

There is a bit of

a cyan colour

Please continue to look straight ahead.

Looking at this temple here

I think

Why is it also cyan-coloured?

Next let's look at your nose.

The tip and the bridge of your nose

The colours are different

Just now when I was looking at your face

I'm mostly looking at the complexion of your face

Normally, the colour should be

slightly red underneath the skin

Just a little bit red--this is normal

However for you

You have some pathological colours

I saw it

Altogether

there are five pathological colours

The first one is white

If your face has pallor

This could be due to yang deficiency

or blood deficiency

But you don't have any pallor

Yellow on the other hand

has four causes

and there are four types of yellow

It could be

spleen qi deficiency

damp heat

dampness

or

stomach qi deficiency

But your skin is not yellow

I mean, your complexion is not yellow

Then

there is redness

Just now I told you

normally there should be a little

a little redness under the skin

however

when I was inspecting your face

I realized that your

left cheek

is too red

therefore this is a problem

but on your right side

we do not have this issue

Yes

Redness could be caused by

excess heat

or deficiency heat

If your entire face

is red

then you must have excess heat

If it were just your cheeks

it's more likely to be deficiency heat

but your redness

Is different from this pattern

I will continue to explain to you

Finally

We have cyan

Cyan is in between

blue and green

It can be due to cold conditions

or pain conditions

Or internal wind

Or

liver problems

Your liver could have fire

Or liver qi stagnation

Or liver blood stagnation

When I'm looking at your complexion

I saw that your temples are a little cyan in colour

Right, so

This could be due to your liver

having problems

The final pathological colour

is grey

This grey colour could be due to

kidney deficiency

Or cold conditions

But I didn't see any grey in your face

Let me come closer again

So

Your forehead

looks pretty healthy

Your nose has problems

Your nose's

bridge

has some redness

but the tip of your nose

is normal

next

your cheeks

this side

is normal

but

your left side

is abnormal

it's red

your chin

is also normal

You're asking

why

your left side is red

while your right side isn't? Let me explain.

This picture

This is a female face

and

let's divide her face into

5 areas

her forehead

represents the heart

The cheeks

the left side represents the liver

the right side represents the lungs

and the chin

is the kidney

So

you

your left side

is red which means your liver

has some fire, some heat

but your lung does not have heat

Regarding this nose

I'll explain later

It's a little more complex but not that complex

When I'm looking at your nose

your nose bridge

is

red

but the tip of your nose

has no problems

this is because

this

nose tip

represents the liver

sorry

the nose bridge represents the liver

the tip of the nose represents the spleen

So you truly

have liver problems

i think this is the reason

Also, have you had nasal discharge?

Today, yesterday or the day before?

No

That's good

If you have a runny nose

clear discharge means wind cold

thick discharge means wind heat

next time when you have a runny nose

you can remember this

Chinese Medicine is like this

Your body's

many different regions

can represent your inner organs

your nose, your face,

your ear, tongue

eyes, feet, etc

all can represent your inner organs

Let's continue to

assess your eyes and explain to you

if we

look at your

sclera

the sclera represents the lungs

your sclera

is a little red

let's look at this side

Yes, this side is also red.

Your iris

represents the liver

it also looks a little red

both sides

look a little red

Let me come closer again

Yes

your sclera and iris

are both red

Next your pupil

No problems with that

Your eyelids

seem swollen

And this side

looks swollen

the corners of your eyes

they represent your heart

No problems with that

So

Your eyes truly can show

how healthy your organs are

And for you, I see that both your eyes

look very red and very swollen

This just shows that your liver

truly has fire

May I look at your tongue?

Please show me

This tongue also looks

very red

the sides are also red

the tongue coating

is very yellow

Thank you

I want to also take your pulse

Please give me your hands

Your pulse is very fast

and

the left

liver guan position

is fast and

strong

So I can say for sure that

Your body truly has liver fire

Alright thank you

Yes

This liver fire

is often caused by emotional problems

If you get angry a lot

throw tantrums and feel irritated

These emotions can hurt your liver

Yes

Also if you

drink too much alcohol

Or if you eat too many fried foods

fried dishes

or if you eat too much red meat

Did you eat too many fried foods?

And you also anger easily?

That's right

These are your causes

You should do some Qi Gong every day

Allow yourself to calm down

Don't get angry

Don't throw tantrums

Treat other people, your family

your friends

treat them better

Also please don't drink alcohol now

Don't eat fried foods

Eat fewer red meats

Eat more of

Chicken or duck

You can eat fish

or seafood

These are all good for you

Tomorrow please come back

I will do some more acupuncture for you

Your my last patient today

So you can rest

quietly rest here, lie down

and I will prepare your Chinese medicine

Okay, thank you

Please rest
