What Are the Symptoms of Damp-Heat Syndrome?
Many people in life like to stay up late, which has great harm to human health. For instance, the emergence of damp-heat in the body is closely related to staying up late for a long time. If there is damp-heat in the body, the specific symptoms include dry mouth and tongue, acne, dampness in private parts, and physical exhaustion. It is advisable to cultivate good work and rest habits and eating habits, and participate in more outdoor sports. Here are four symptoms of "damp-heat" in the body:
If you often feel dry mouth and tongue, loss of appetite, very dry skin, and abnormal urination and defecation, such as yellow urine and difficult bowel movements, these are symptoms of damp-heat. Drinking lotus seed water three times a day can help improve these symptoms. The preparation method is very simple. Just brew the lotus seed heart with boiling water like making tea. The amount should be appropriate, neither too strong nor too weak. In addition to treating dry mouth, it can also alleviate sore throat and hoarseness.
Many people believe that acne is a sign of adolescence, but that's not true. Many adults also get acne frequently, which is caused by damp-heat in the body. If the body wants to expel this damp-heat, it will do so through acne and abscess. Therefore, patients with frequent acne or eczema are more than 90% likely to have a damp-heat constitution. Long-term suffering from this condition may also lead to symptoms such as mouth ulcers and bad breath.
When damp-heat constitution appears in men, it can cause symptoms such as dampness in the scrotum, which feels sticky and uncomfortable. Moreover, the air in the scrotum is not easy to circulate, making it prone to bacterial growth and more severe infections. Therefore, when the skin of the scrotum becomes very itchy, it is necessary to consider whether it is due to a damp-heat constitution.
Long-term exposure to damp-heat stimulation can cause symptoms such as mental lethargy, lassitude, and reluctance to move. Patients often also experience symptoms such as dry mouth and physical exhaustion. In severe cases, it may even affect the patient's normal work and life. Moreover, the hair of these people is prone to become greasy, and their faces may also produce more oil. In summary, since heat often exists attached to dampness, attention should be paid to improving the living environment and dietary adjustment. It is not advisable to overeat, drink excessively, or consume too much greasy and sweet food. Maintaining good digestive function and avoiding internal dampness stagnation or external dampness invasion are the keys to preventing damp-heat.
