Coating of tongue

Question: Hello Dr. Luc, After reading Hahnmann revisited i wonder if you
could answer a question for me. For some time i have been using both
Sulphur and Sepia with extrordinary results, atleast i thought. Symptoms
that needed addressing would be helped by the remedies however they would
leave me wtih a yellow coating on my tounge. In your book you refer to
this as a negative side effect, according to TCM. I thought it was leading
me to another remedy( Nux, yuou also mentioned this as the chronic of
both), but the results were not comparable to the sulphur results? Could
you explain why this might be happening? My highest regards

Answer: Dear friend! Excellent question. The appearance of a yellow
coaring on the tongue (and it really depends WHERE on the tongue?) is not
at all always a bad reaction. I suppose it is in the middle of the tongue
which corresponds to the Spleen-pancreas/Stomach organs or Esrth Element.
The yellow coating always reflects "heat dampness" in the body, and
probably gives symptoms such as loose stools alternating with
constipation, eructations, bloating, slow digestion, formation of mucus,
etc. That's why Sulphur was such a good remedy (Nux v is the acute of
Sulphur) and most likely you need to continue with Sulphur if it fits your
picture in different potencies till you see the coating changing into
white color and then till it becomes a slight thin white coating. (Always
observe tongue picture in clear daylight, not under artificial light) In
other words Sulphur (and posible Sepia) pushed the disease from inside to
outside and puts the interior disease as a relief route on your tongue
where such symptom is now an indication how long you need to do these
remedies and how fast you can go while you are healing the internal
disease

Warmest regards

Dr luc
