<< review queue entry 68807 - submitted by 'pzelchenko' >> Seen in Wuxi hospital 通乳治疗室, badly translated "Tong Milk Therapy" --- I'd say the best translation is probably "lactation" and so the sign should probably be translated "Lactation Therapy" or "Lactation Clinic" ----------------------------- Editor: "lactation" is a general term for producing breastmilk, not particularly related to problems with milk supply. 通乳, on the other hand, seems to be more of a specialized medical term, usually applied in connection with women who have problems producing milk. 通乳：治療學術語，為治療產後乳汁不通或缺乳者的原則，即通下乳汁。 在乳期的任何階段，乳房出現硬塊或乳房出現刺痛感時，或者乳腺炎後輔助把硬塊排開，這種情況都叫通乳。 原文網址：https://kknews.cc/health/e8j5vxn.html In traditional Chinese medicine, pangolin scales are said to be good for clearing blockages in milk flow, because, you know, pangolins are great at burrowing through things (hence the 穿山 "penetrate the mountain" in the Chinese word for pangolin, 穿山甲, I guess.) 傳統中醫以穿山甲善於穿鑿洞穴、開通道路的特性，認為其鱗片有通經活血並幫助產婦通乳（催生乳汁）的功效，但現代研究發現其主要成份並無特別之處，僅為普通角質，與人類指甲成份相近。 https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%A9%BF%E5%B1%B1%E7%94%B2 Sesame oil is another thing that's good for blocked ducts, they say: 從中醫的角度來看，產婦需要補氣血，而麻油具有補血、潤腸、烏髮、通乳、增長肌肉等益處。 Sarah can help too: Sarah哺乳工作室-泌乳、通乳、月子加拿大- Posts | Facebook 我是一位專業哺乳師，俗稱（通乳師），專門解決產後哺餵母乳一切問題，... |
