Noma Disease

We cannot over emphasis the importance of tcm in curbing noma because it is perculiar among children under the age of twelve of the poorest country of Africa. But let us stop and ask ourselves what Noma disease is.

Noma is a disease that affects the mouth or genitals. It is caused by a rapidly progressive polymicrobial. It affect the mucous membranes of the mouth. It start with an ulcer then a rapid, painless degeneration occur to the mouth.

Noma can be caused by malnutrition especially the lack of vitamin A and Vitamin B. There is one good suppliment by Tasly called cen forte Tablet (commonly called Cen forte Tab) this is quite expensive for the demograph prune to be expose to it. So we have moringa oleifera and Bitter Leaf which is a cheap or almost free source of vitamin A and B found in Africa that could support malnutrition cause of noma. Let us just list all the causes of noma and we shall profer some tcm solution to those causes.

  • Poor oral hygiene
  • Unsafe drinking water.
  • Proximity to unkempt livestock.
  • Recent illness.
  • Measles
  • Smoking
  •  immunodeficiency disease (like HIV)
We know tcm promotes good and healthy life-style as part of its health therapy. So smoking is a bad habbit but we hear rumours about some phytotherapy that could help addict stop smoking. We shall post when we have done our proper findings. But we have done some work on measles and promoted A1- Capsule for immunodeficiency disease. Noma can be curb medically if discovered earlier with good antibiotics and good nutrition. But when the deal is done, one could only result in a very delicate maxillofacial surgery. Even if done by the best of surgeons, the face would not look perfectly the way it was before, so get education as a vaccine against noma.

Ear Barotrauma (Airplane ears).

The ear is one of the most important sense organs of the human body and could be very inconvenient if one gets really troubled with it. The ear is divided into three parts: the outer part, middle and the inner part. The pressure between the out and the inner ears must be balance to cause inconveniences.

TCM Nigeria

TCM Nigeria according to this blog simply means traditional Chinese medicine, practiced in Nigeria. Unlike other websites which focus on cables and cable connectors like RJ45, RJ11 cable connectors. These are connectors that help computers and telephones communicate. The RJ45 connector can be crimped in two ways, we have the straight through crimping which allow computer network devices to communicate along a network and a crossover cable crimp which only allows two computers to communicate with one another. Networking is a big feed of ICT and tcmnigeria.net have tons of details on it. But this website focuses on traditional or alternative Nigerian practice to getting well and preventing illness. We explore  Phytotherapy  and the way it is administered in Nigeria for healthier living. One of the most common tree found in Nigeria is the  moringa oleifera  tree which is a very good remedy for crashing blood sugar and it is very nutritious.

Phytotherapy and myth

Writing this post close to Christmas tempts me to remind us about the Black Friday promotion of Jumia online store. The TCM app is linked to Jumia and konga store and many people from our app corner had been complaining about how expensive some of the product we recommend on our blog and app is. Jumia's Black Friday is long and it would be discounting 80% off all the product you buy from  the 13th of this month till the 13th of next month. So looking for an opportunity to get traditional products at rock bottom price, now is the time. There is a popular believe among trado-medicine that there is no ailment which nature haven't provided a solution for; it's just for man to research. Phytotherapy also called herbalism is a natural way of treating ailment by using herbs. If you are a good reader of our post, you would notice we had been discussing African traditional medicine. We had discussed bitter kola, moringa, dogonyaro, bitter leaf. I wanted to talk about ginger toda
