Sublingual veins

Not Sa’am specifically but I am curious on how folks use the information of distended sublingual veins only on
one side? Ed Neal makes a point of the sublingual veins being part of the Kidney which is interesting from a Sa’am
lens.
I have a very strong patient (she’d be classified as have many KD excess characteristics) who was born with only a
left kidney. She is extremely distended in the left sublingual, but hardly a visible vein on the right side.
I have seen this with other patients but not sure what to make of it as it does not necessarily correspond to pulse
being weaker or stronger on one side.

Hi George,
Sublinguals are definitely a reason to look at the tongue when practicing Saam.
One side being more distended or darker is an indication for SI+ the contralateral side.

People are so interesting!

I am so glad you brought this up. I am very fascinated by SLV myself and never really felt like they were covered
very well in school. If you or anyone else has good reading (in English) about sublingual veins, please share them.
I love how the body tells us everything we need to know…and more.

I asked T
Do you have any thoughts on what normal sublingual veins should look like? Thin and blue? If they aren’t
visible does this support SI excess?>16/01/2024, 12:25Sublingual veins – Qiological Community

He answered:
Nothing definitive from the tradition. For me, normal sublingual veins are short (not up towards the tip) thin
and blue. Non visible veins are a weak support of SI excess.
