ACVBM SPEAKER TOPIC INFORMATION
You Can Win With Skin - 6 hours
Whether using herbs or drugs, managing skin disease is one of the chief sources of frustration for veterinarians
Drugs come with side effects, are often expensive, and incomplete in their effects. Results with herbal medicine can be satisfying, but even then only often after months or years of trial and error using, it seems, almost every herbal formula on the shelf in the process. This lecture presents an algorithmic approach to managing skin disease that uncovers the diagnosis for a given patient quickly. The approach is grounded in classical Chinese medicine, but the choices and the results are easily explicable in conventional medical terms, making this an ideal webinar for everyone from beginner to expert. Numerous cases are provided as examples of the process, and what to do when a wrong choice is made.
