Frequent colds and coughs, is there any good way to prevent them in Chinese medicine?
Hi, I am a TCM doctor. The problem you mention is very common and many people have this problem.
According to western medicine it's a low immune system, exercise, etc., and there's no other good way to do it.
However, in the view of Chinese medicine this is also a disease that has to be treated.
The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine says that when positive qi is present in the body, evil cannot interfere. Translated, this means that if you have enough positive energy in your body, you will not feel any external evil and get sick.
People have a kind of Qi called Wei Qi, which protects the human body from illness, just like the protective circle drawn by the Monkey King for the Tang Monk.
People with Wei Qi deficiency are easily afraid of wind and cold and cannot resist external evils. They are also prone to catching colds more easily than normal people, or catching colds more often.
How do you fill in the cure? Replenish Wei Qi.
The specific methods are as follows:
First of all, Wei Qi comes from the spleen and stomach, which is also the source of qi and blood biochemistry, and regulating the spleen and stomach is the key.
People with qi deficiency can usually replenish qi by strengthening the spleen and stomach with food or medicine, or moxibustion. Commonly used ingredients include Codonopsis, Ginseng, Astragalus, Poria, and so on.
Formulas include tonifying the middle and benefiting the qi pill, Liu Jun Wan, and Li Zhong Wan.
Give there is also a Yuping Feng San for people who are especially afraid of the wind and catch cold easily, and the existing adult medicine Yuping Feng Granules.
In addition to medications, moxibustion is also a good way to replenish qi. You can moxibrate qihai blood, zhongzhi points, foot sanli and other common health points.
Of course, it is said that the spleen and stomach are the source of Wei qi, and Huang Di Nei Jing also said that Wei, the humongous qi of water and grain.
Wei qi comes from water and grains and is born in the spleen and stomach. Foods that harm the spleen and stomach should be eaten sparingly, and you have to control your mouth. For example, cold and frozen food is a big no-no.

Usually exercise, mood, pay attention to diet, these thousand things will not say. Chinese medicine pay attention to dialectic, did not see the patient himself, can not give a more detailed program. But you can usually eat some jade screen wind san, three volt three nine patch, clinical observation of many patients or some effect, but it is best to find a reliable physician, combined with laboratory indicators, the whole body conditioning.

My child hours often fever, the reason for sleeping at night to give him too much cover, hot, he will be denied the quilt caused by cold, we often give him a hangman's injection or find an old Chinese doctor to prescribe some traditional Chinese medicine, but then a fever they prescribe the medicine is not to reduce the fever, I found the child's symptoms from the medical books are virtual fire, and these doctors are as a real fire treatment, so do not reduce the fever, and the old Chinese doctor prescribed Zixuetan is a mistake under the medication, I used to cure the virtual fire to reduce the child's fever. I used the method of treating false fire to reduce the child's fever, and since then the fever has not been too high. So you need to check the cause of frequent colds more often.
