What Are the Three Main Signs of Internal Body Heat?
The symptoms of internal body heat mainly include an increase in body temperature, reddened complexion, bad breath, and difficulty in defecation, which require active cooperation with medical treatment.
An increase in body temperature is often considered to be caused by liver qi stagnation, which may lead to imbalance of yin and yang and may also affect the excretion of heat, resulting in fever.
A reddened complexion may be caused by damp-heat invasion, which tends to accumulate dampness in the body and may also lead to a flushed complexion.
If bad breath is not treated promptly and dietary precautions are not taken, it may cause food to accumulate in the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in an unpleasant odor in the mouth.
If the patient's condition is severe, it may reduce gastrointestinal motility and may be accompanied by symptoms such as dry and hard stool and difficult defecation.
In addition, yellow and greasy tongue coating may also be present. Patients with internal body heat can be treated with medicine such as Niuhuang Jiedu Pian, Huanglian Shangqing Wan, and Qinghuo Zhimai Pian according to a doctor's instructions to achieve the effect of reducing internal heat. In daily life, attention should be paid to diet, and light foods such as bitter gourd and mung beans can be eaten appropriately to avoid aggravating the symptoms of internal heat.
