Western medication is a facade.
Anxiety: Administer benzodiazepines- sedation, reduced muscle tone and co-ordination, anticonvulsant
Peptic ulcer: Traditionally, administer H2 receptor antagonist- acid blocker. Done for years and years until they realised, it was actually bacterial so a combination of amoxicillin or other antibiotics in combination with acid blockers went to the root of the problem.
Headache: Paracetamol- Pain Killer
Sore Throat: Analgesic, mild anasthetic
If this whole thing goes to shits, alternative medicine might not seem like such a bad option afterall. I really do believe our body to be a self sufficient entity. Ok disregard cancer, aids, venereal diseases, and all those other diseases which are a result of human stupidity and greed. We are able to heal, if we take the right steps to aid our body to do so. They are even setting up TCM physicians in hospitals now. The western world is recognizing that treating symptomatically is not the way to solve things. Perhaps this inexplicable balance of Yin and Yang, the Chakkras and plethora of traditional explinations of diseases and well being is truly what the western medical world needs to aid it in dishing out recovery and medicative strategies.
Ah, anyway, back to the books.
