- Acne: Related to lung and stomach heat, damp-heat, or hormonal imbalance, causing blocked pores, inflammation, and pustules.
- Atopic Dermatitis / Eczema: Associated with spleen deficiency, dampness retention, and blood-heat or yin deficiency, leading to dry, itchy, inflamed skin and recurrent flare-ups.
- Hair Loss (Alopecia): Commonly linked to kidney deficiency, qi and blood deficiency, or liver qi stagnation, weakening follicle nourishment.
- Urticaria (Hives): Often due to external wind invasion, damp-heat, or qi and blood disharmony, presenting with sudden itching and wheals.
