    Dude I'm Asian and my wife just gave birth... You should see the crap her mom and my mom came up with for after birth therapy. And that coin rub some how does work, I do it when I have a really bad fever. Its kind of strange that it would only get that red when you have a fever.

    You take a coin and scratch the skin until it turns red.

    LOL its a chinese/ vietnamese traditional remedy for when people get the flu or run a high fever..or just about anything really..even sore muscles..strange as it seems, it actually works lol With the use of some eagle oil or tiger balm applied to the skin you then proceed to scratch the skin with a large coin(preferably a half dollar since if covers more area) to i suppose..exfoliate the skin for the illness to leave the body.

    When i was in the third grade i had the flu and my mother used the coin rub and when i went to school the next day(yes i know..i still had to go to school..) i was sent to the principles office because my teacher thought i was being abused by my parents LOL best day of my life.. its pretty hard to explain such a remedy to someone when you barely knew english at the time....

    haha...this is what wikipedia says... in a quick explanation, it releases pressure and the heat from inside your body.. makes your blood flow better and with the correct tiger balm liquid thing-a-majig that acts almost like a vabor rub (but better and smellier) you should start to feel better after a day of rest... soo far, i have a bit more energy and was able to install my Wet Okoles ... coughing has been suppressed more than yesterday and fever has come down drastically... head still hurts every soo often...
