Specializes in Psychiatry

Abdominal pain.: When making that tea- Buckwheat honey is best, Use organic ginger and try squeezing it with a press. Make sure that you allow this to steep for at least 10 minutes with a pot with a lid, for full benefits of the essential oils. If he has significant abdominal pain, that would merit medical assessment.
