Why bruxism and sore?
It is very difficult to make you understood the pathology because
the terms and concepts of east asian medicine regading these
symptoms can not be visualized. So I say one thing. Fatigue
makes the symptoms worsened. Where, how and why shall be
let aside at this time.

though not to previous extent. So I stopped chemical drug, he
was get better again. Now bruxsim is very little."

8. Ephilogue
Bruxism and snore should be treates at young age as possible
because the accumulation of symptoms will change the structure
of Ki flow and body organs, which makes long times of treatment
and relapse easily when the conditions are worsened in future.
Babies and children are so energetic that metabolism going back
to normal status can be hepled easily with herbs.
