So after going home for the weekend my mom gave me kohkhyol - old Cambodian holistic remedy for colds where they rub the skin with ointment then take a coin and rub REALLY FUCKIN HARD around (not on) the spine and ribs. Picture is bullshit done by an amateur, when done properly it's bright red and has a design pattern to it.

Needless to say when I got back my girl freaked out about it and thought my mom beat me or something.

Anyway, I know that modern western thought calls it bullshit but I felt way better after it than before. ITT your success stories with traditional medicine.

kohkhyol returned 0 google results. Did you fuck up the spelling or fabricate this?

Hammerknife is a fucking gook that pulled this out of his micropenis.

Zzz. I spell it the way I speak/hear it, and whitey people say 'kos khyol'. Google that.

Doesn't break the skin, dipshit. Enjoy your vitamin c and advil.

Because that's what my parents did, and my grandparents, and so on. Traditional.

The common cold is harmless though. Who the fuck cares?

Being partially chinese, I'm perfectly justified in calling them pussyfooting faggots. They don't rub hard and they use porcelain or plastic spoons and other faggot shit. They also don't follow any particular pattern, see my OP pic.

My mom used a coin for half of it, and a rounded chunk of steel for the other half, and drew a goddamn phoenix on my back.

Well, #1 cause of natural death (i.e. not starvation) in cambodia is cancer at the moment.

For curing metastasized cancer, this treatment's as good as any other out there, i.e. they're not.

If nobody cared about the common cold we wouldn't have a billion dollar industry marketing painkillers, lozenges, and nasal drips.

That's just to treat the uncomfortable symptoms of it. No one's dying from it except people that are going to die soon anyway.

And to people adjusted to their chosen painkillers, tylenol/advil/whatever does nothing, yet they still feel better after popping a pair with some orange juice.

Cold therapies are symptomatic, and if it works well at treating the symptoms (which this does), it's as valid a treatment as any other.

I'm getting a headache from reading this post. Try making sense.

Translating into retard-speak:

PAINKILLERS HAVE LITTLE TO NO GREATER EFFECT THAN A PLACEBO ONCE THE PATIENT IS ADJUSTED TO THEM, YET THE PLACEBO EFFECT REMAINS PRONOUNCED

IF IT TREATS A COLD, IT'S A VALID TREATMENT

You know, this treatment falls into the same category as acupuncture.
Everytime some stupid westerner gets stung with some needles, a chinaman dies of laughing.
Greatest placebo scam of all time.

I sense a case of projection here - you feel inadequate because you can't parse what I'm saying.

In any case, I've been tripfagging /fit/ since it started up, and I've always been unwelcome.

Yeah, and given you're the only one in this thread bitching and whining, it seems it's just your own projections on the matter.

Looks like we got newfaggotry here.

Even though I doubt anyone here remembers either the old progression thread or the thread where I chugged a half gallon of OJ and had people bitching at me about it.

Clearly, your inability to understand and interpret what I say means that I'm the illiterate.

Or you're trolling, which is probably the better case. I try to believe people aren't inherently stupid.
