I think that when the body is too heavy dampness will feel weak and lack of energy, and there will be a change in the physique, especially the body of the virtual meat will be more up, this time looks fat, serious people, get up in the morning to see their face will be a little puffy.
Let me tell you about my previous manifestations of too much dampness. I remember when I was 23 years old, the weight suddenly increased, I did not know how, and that I do not sweat, and often feel very heavy body, walking is not light, every day at work want to sleep, then thought I was sick, then I went to the hospital to do a checkup, the doctor said that I have no physical problems is too heavy moisture, need to regulate for a period of time, and told me, night I was told that I should not stay up late at night and should pay attention to my diet and exercise. I drank three pairs of traditional Chinese medicine after the checkup, that is, a month's time to adjust the good.
After that experience, I feel that when the dampness is too heavy, the main thing to look at your face, yellowish face, a little puffy, that 80% is body dampness. If your weight suddenly increases, it is also a sign of dampness.

4. Thickness of the tongue
This is the classic manifestation of Dampness, which often manifests itself before the organism has shown any prominent pathology. It is most accurate to look at the tongue just after waking up in the early morning.
5. Poor appetite, poor digestion of the spleen and stomach
We all know that the spleen and stomach transportation problems will appear abdominal distension, poor appetite, reduced meal size, not shaped, and so on. And because the spleen is weak and transportation is not good and lead to "internal dampness", but also often have a light mouth, sticky taste, thirst but do not want to drink, tiredness and fatigue, such as qi deficiency, dampness and sleepy performance.
6. Joint pain
There is a saying that "dampness goes to the joints", if the body has been eroded to the joints, the joints will also appear certain diseases, part of the qi and blood does not run well, there will be limb joints soreness and heaviness, joints flexion and extension of unfavorable performance. At the same time, we can observe the color of the back of their hands at the knuckles, if the color is significantly darker than other places, or brown. That means your dampness is very heavy.
7. Easy to get fat
Many people say they "drink water are fat." This type of person is obviously heavy dampness, especially the abdomen will appear particularly large, we call the virtual fat, you see her usual amount of food is not big. This is heavy dampness, the spleen and stomach ability to transport water dampness is too poor.
8. Incontinent stools
Long-term loose stools, some people always have some sticking to the toilet after the stool, it is difficult to flush down, this is also a manifestation of dampness, because dampness has the characteristics of sticky. People with dampness in their bodies, one piece of paper is not enough after a bowel movement, you have to use more than one.

You can drink red bean barley Gorgonzola porridge, this porridge can not only get rid of dampness, but also regulate the spleen and stomach, to know that your dampness is heavy is the problem of the spleen and stomach, but here the red bean must be used to choose a long red beans, to have a good effect of dampness, barley needs to be fried after use. Gravy must also be added, otherwise only dispel dampness, not regulate the spleen and stomach or useless. Specific precautions and practices you can pay attention to my headline number, read the article "red beans and barley do not get rid of dampness, it is because you did not eat right.
3. Pepper foot soak
Pepper is not only a commonly used seasoning, but also a traditional Chinese medicine, pepper to the lungs, kidneys, liver meridians, it has a warm center to relieve pain, to remove dampness and dispel cold, to dispel cold, tonifying the kidney Yang, bright eyes, eliminating the role of food and so on.
Just that one piece of gauze to wrap the peppercorns, probably the amount of a packet that is about the size of our feet, put it in a pot and boil it for half an hour and then you can come to soak your feet.And this pepper packet can be cooked several times over, because that pepper flavor will still be there if you cook it many times, so it's a pretty economical way to do it.

Hello, as a veteran of Chinese medicine and a girl who has suffered from spleen and stomach problems for a long time, I would like to share my own experience with you.
I've answered this question a million times already, but wanted to talk about it again because no matter how much is said, the problem is chronic and very difficult to get a handle on!
- Greasy face, acne on chin and cheeks, greasy hair, increased dandruff, greasy cochlea. As I'm sure you can tell, all kinds of grease.
- Dampness can not be discharged from the body, the physical manifestation is a variety of sticky and difficult to sweat is also sticky, the cochlea is always wet with water, hair every day greasy, no matter how to wash are constantly bubbling oil. I believe that many friends are like this!
- There is no such thing as oily or dry skin. As for people with wet and cold body, due to too much moisture in the body, they will squeeze the essence of the human body out of the body, making the face and hair greasy, and even acne on the face.
- Some people's stools are sticky and unshaped, blisters appear when cupping, their tongues have teeth marks, their tongues are fat and heavy with water dampness, and their whites are thick and greasy, and so on.

Spleen and kidney dampness and cold is the source of all diseases, dampness and cold stagnation in the body, the organs and bowels as if placed in a cold and damp room, it is appropriate to pay attention to.
Dampness heavy in addition to eating very hot red bean barley porridge, what else can be done? I'll keep it simple and brutal and direct, and talk about some of the methods I've adhered to over the years:
- Rub the spleen meridian, especially the section from yinlingquan to sanyinjiao, no matter when to rub the meridian is not smooth, especially yinlingquan, diji points and sanyinjiao, extremely painful, indicating serious blockage, has been many years to press and rub the heavy weight of perseverance!
- Do not eat cold drinks This includes cold drinks from milk tea stores, anything frozen in the refrigerator, which is too harmful to the spleen and stomach, and for those who need to socialize for a long time, try to refuse cold beer, and do not over-eat fatty, sweet, thick and greasy food, which is prone to phlegm-dampness!
- Eat less fruit! Especially in the summer of ice watermelon and so on, fruits at once remember not to eat too much, hurt the spleen and stomach, these belong to the cold and damp heavy food, and is not a good thing. Of course, here for those friends who have a weak spleen and stomach. If you say lack of vitamins and so on, in fact, vegetables are rich in vitamins.
- Daily Exercise. The amount of exercise should not be too large, slightly moving muscles and bones, slightly sweating can be! Otherwise, a lot of sweating leads to fluid loss, but the loss is not worth it. Yoga is recommended!
- Some people do not realize that their home environment is actually very humid which makes the moisture no matter how to drain is not helpful, appropriate exposure to the quilt, etc., the house is the most appropriate wet and dry, which is a very important reason.
