The Spleen and Stomach are exteriorly-interiorly related, belonging to the Foot-Yangming Meridian. The meridian originates at the nose, circles the lips, and its branch enters to connect with the Spleen. If there is heat in the Spleen and Stomach, the pathogenic Qi ascends to manifest on the lips.
Tight Lips: To treat tight lips in children, which is caused by the upward rush of toxic heat from the five Zang organs, resulting in swollen and rough lips, the Huanglian San (Coptis Powder) formula should be used.
Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma, half liang, remove rootlets), Huangbai (Phellodendri Cortex, half liang, cut into small pieces), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, half liang, raw and cut into small pieces), Hanshuishi (Calcitum, half liang), Binglang (Arecae Semen, one fen).
Crush the above ingredients and sift them through a fine sieve to make a powder. Mix with refined honey and apply to the lips, changing the application two to three times daily.
