Infectious fever is very common, mostly caused by pathogens such as bacteria and viruses invading the body. If you eat the food that gets angry for a long time, the heat can't be discharged, which will easily lead to the decline of human immunity and more prone to fever problems.
There are many factors of non-infectious fever, most of which are caused by primary disease, and some are caused by nervous system and other reasons, such as hyperthyroidism, rheumatic fever, autonomic nervous dysfunction and so on.
When you have a fever, the most common symptoms are bitter taste, vomiting, repeated fever, loss of appetite, redness of the skin, chills, general pain, sweating, dehydration, weakness and so on.
In traditional Chinese medicine, there are many reasons for fever, which can be roughly divided into exogenous fever and internal injury fever. Exogenous fever can be subdivided into wind-heat and wind-cold, and wind-cold can be subdivided into sweating and anhidrosis, and the treatment methods are different.
For the specific explanation of fever, the theory of traditional Chinese medicine is similar to modern theory. In the interpretation of traditional Chinese medicine, fever is considered to be the result of the struggle between good and evil.
When pathogens enter the human body, they will collide with the healthy qi of the human body (phagocytosis of white blood cells and pathogens), thus consuming people's vitality and generating fever.
In treatment, there are many ways of TCM treatment, such as syndrome differentiation of six meridians and pathological mechanism.
