WTH? It's not like they are threatening to write you out of the will if you don't swallow a live eel every morning. It's soup - if you don't like it, tell them you don't like it. Maybe flavor it up a little. Still not up to your taste? Tell your Mom to stop making it and save herself the effort. My parents gave up trying to force-feed me vile-tasting stuff some time around the Third Grade.
If you can't work up the guts to do that and prefer a more silent-assassin approach, regurgitation on the dinner table FTW.

My parents are probaly lying to me......

It only works if it contains rhinoceros horn.
Seriously, though, the herbal soups sometimes work and sometimes don't. I'm not sure if you're used them for other things before, but they are not anything like western medicine. Western medicine is usually much stronger and has faster, more apparent effects, but the cost is usually side effects.
Chinese medicines seem to work better with your body and don't upset anything but your taste buds, but they just help out your body's ability to fight the condition, rather than really actively doing something to get fast results. Sometimes Chinese medicine is put together and researched less scientifically, too, so sometimes it's a little hit or miss.

It's been quite a while for me but any anti-inflammation cream would work better than anything ingested.
It's cheap and it will last a long long time if you just use it on the pimples.

Seriously, you know what make up those soups? Its chicken livers, bones and other unimaginable things.
I am not seeing results, and they already probaly know it and keep stuffing me with their damm cultural shit that doesn't even work. I know why Chinese are communist now. They want to keep shit for themselves and let other people suffer.
