Dampness is trapped, blocking the elevation of the qi in and out of the Qing Yang does not rise, in the upper part of the head as heavy, dizziness; in the middle of the chest and epigastric plagued, gastrointestinal not fragrant; dampness stagnation of meridians and collaterals is heavy limbs, fatigue and tiredness. "Turbidity" is filth. Dampness injury to Yang, gasification is not conducive to the emergence of water, dampness, turbidity and obscenity of the disease, the symptoms of met with more mucus discharge, sticky stools, urine turbidity, women's thick and turbid with the tongue, tongue coating dirt and greasy, and so on.
Dampness tends to go down. Dampness causes disease and the wind nature of the light up floating is different, the so-called "injured in the wind, the first on the affected; injured in the wet, the first under the affected" ("Su Wen - Taiyin Yangming theory"), so the dampness for the disease, mostly see gonorrhea, with the next, foot, feet, foot swollen, such as the lower part of the disease. However, external dampness injury, and can be combined with wind evil, Yu Zhi Wei surface, resulting in limb acidity, swelling and pain. If the dampness poison impregnates the skin, a variety of skin diseases can occur.
Dampness invasion of the human body, the most likely to hurt the spleen and stomach, because "the spleen is evil to dampness", dampness will hurt the spleen, so the external dampness and internal dampness have a certain connection, can be the cause and effect of each other.
So how do we know if dampness is heavy? Look at these points:
First: when you wake up - look at the feeling.

Second: When going to the toilet - look at the stool.
Long-term loose stools, stools stick to the toilet, toilet paper are more than others to use a few. When the dampness in the body is heavy, we can look at the shape of the stool to get a clear picture. See whether the stool is thin, whether there is sticking to the toilet, not easy to flush out. This is a very good criterion to measure the heaviness of dampness in the body. Especially in the morning, when we are going to the toilet, we can see if the stool has stuck to the toilet.
In this regard, if our stools look dry and, have a more fixed shape, presenting a banana shape. Then, the moisture in our body is relatively light, and there is no moisture present. However, if our stools stick to the toilet, and, stools are not shaped, then we need to pay attention.

Based on the combination of your symptoms and tongue coating, it falls into the category ofDampness and heat in the body. Why?
Let's start with the tongue, which everyone likes to see. Thisblade of tongueThe color is still more of a偏红The fact that the tongue coating is thinner at the tip of the tongue and thicker in the main center indicates that there is a lot of dampness in the middle jiao. Middle.The tongue isn't yellow, though.(It could be the angle of the shot or the lighting), butrelatively dry. So it should be that the dampness has turned into heat, or is itself damp-heat.
Again, look at the symptoms.Yellow urine, moist scrotum, itching, dry mouth, love to drink cold drinks. These are indicative of more pronounced signs of heat in the body.
with regards tobad breathIf you have a very good appetite and are easily hungry, then it should not be caused by dampness-heat, but by stomach-heat. However, if the appetite is also not very good, easy to eat fullness feeling, coupled with sticky stools, that belongs to the dampness caused by.
with regards toSweaty hands and feet, hot handsThe question, too, is one of two possibilities, acaused by dampness and heatof fever and sweating, the time of fever is usually feverish in the afternoon, slight sweating, sweating out of the unpleasant. SecondlyYin-inducedFever and sweating, and this manifests itself chiefly in the palms and feet, especially at night when they are apt to sleepSweating, upset, fever. However, from the tongue coating, no Yin deficiency has been detected. So this problem of sweaty hands and feet and hot hands should be caused by Damp-Heat.
As for the stiffness and pain in the shoulders and back, like a fallen pillow, that's because of thedampness causes obstruction of the channels and meridiansThe resulting joints are constricted and unfavorable.
Likes to sit and lie down, doesn't like to standIt is due to the symptoms of easy fatigue, fatigue and drowsiness caused by dampness that traps the body.
So in summary the body is mainly caused by dampness and heat. Then what tea should drink to regulate better?
From this tongue image, the middle jiao spleen and stomach are still okay, so you don't have to worry too much about the cold spleen and stomach not being able to take it when you drink expectorant tea. You can useRed Bean and Job's Tears TeaYou can drink it, too.Lotus leaf hawthorn tea, dandelion tea, corn husk waterand so on, or then press and rub some points that can clear dampness and heat, such asSanyinjiao, Yinlingquan, Fenglong, Diqi, Shui Daoetc. Or you can also use proprietary Chinese medicinesLiuyi San, Si Miao Pills. As well as being able to exercise and sweat more.
In fact, this is a quiz question on how to recognize the type of evidence. Let's see, there are no conditions, just questions.
Generally speaking, there should be material for identification, and there is no material for this topic, so let's make a comprehensive identification. Identification in Chinese medicine is based on the information obtained from observation and questioning. How to identify Cold and Dampness?
The pulse should be either moist and slow, or moist and tight. If the pulse is moist, it is Dampness, and if it is late or tight, it is Cold. If the Pulse is moist and counting, it is Damp-Heat.
Then look at the tongue, if the tongue moss white thick, moss white belongs to cold, moss thick dampness. If the tongue is red and the moss is yellow and thick, then it belongs to dampness and heat.
Questioning is the patient's direct feeling and is an important reference information. If the mouth is greasy and fear of cold, it is Cold-Dampness. If the patient has dry mouth, thirst and bitterness, it is Damp-Heat.
This is very obvious for you, it is definitely Damp-Heat, the reason why there are teeth marks is because the Damp is too heavy and affects the function of the Spleen and Stomach as a manifestation.
Dampness is wind, cold, summer, dampness, dryness, fire, the "six obscene evils" in one of the so-called "due to dampness, the first as wrapped." So dampness has the characteristics of heaviness, adhesion, stickiness, and tendency to go down.
Dampness invasion of the body or endogenous dampness can be divided into five levels according to the surface and inside, different levels have their own typical symptom performance: level one dampness in the epidermis, common symptoms can be summarized by oil, acne, rash, itchy, sores; level two dampness in the muscle, mainly manifested as acid, heavy, sleepy, tired, swollen, muscle aches and pains, body fatigue, swelling of the body, the head heavy such as wrapped, etc.; level three dampness in the bones, manifested as neck, shoulder, lumbar, and leg pain, cervical vertebrae, lumbar disc herniation, frozen shoulder, etc.; fourth-level dampness in the internal organs, manifested in the heart, liver, spleen, stomach, kidney, lungs, liver and gallbladder, spleen, stomach, bladder dampness and heat; and fifth-level dampness and toxicity is what we call a tumor.
In the six evils, when it is the most pestering dampness, dampness is not only easy to invade and penetrate, it is also never alone, often with other evils, such as cold and heat. Therefore, the treatment of dampness, it should be clear that cold and dampness and dampness and heat, otherwise, it is likely to get rid of dampness is not, but instead of dampness is heavier.
(1) Cold and dampness: Cold and dampness are both yin evils, so cold and dampness are more likely to injure yang qi and block qi. According to the source of cold and dampness can be divided into external cold and dampness and endogenous cold and dampness two categories, external cold and dampness evil, can make the qi and blood run blocked, common joints, tendons and bones for the symptoms; endogenous cold and dampness, cold and dampness and damage to the spleen and yang, or spleen and kidney yang deficiency and cold and dampness within the stop to the cold and cold limbs, abdominal pain, diarrhea, or swelling for the symptoms of common diseases.
Cold and dampness in the body, generally manifested as heavy body sleepiness, easy to fatigue, dizziness, fatigue, fear of cold, white sticky or thin phlegm in the pharynx, loose stools are not shaped, numbness of the limbs, cold, edema, lack of appetite, do not want to drink water, insomnia and forgetfulness, or not wake up to sleep, urinate more, the waist and body sinking pain, the whole body joints swollen and painful, the tongue coating is white thick and greasy and other symptoms.
(2) Dampness and heat: Dampness and heat together is dampness and heat, dampness and heat can block the body's water and fluid and the operation of the qi. The formation of dampness and heat and wantonly eat cold, fat and sweet things, summer long stay in the air-conditioned room, daily exercise less related.
Dampness and heat in the body is usually manifested by thirst but do not want to drink water, dizziness, cerebral tinnitus, tinnitus, eyes red and swollen, eye boogers, stools sticky and unpleasant to flush, hair and facial greasiness, hair loss, halitosis, sores on the mouth and tongue, feel hungry but do not eat much, itchy eczema, male manifestation of scrotal hot flashes, female manifestation of yellowish leukorrhoea, vulvar itching, and yellowish thick and greasy tongue coating.
In fact, there will not be a very strict distinction between the two, external cold and dampness of the evil, when the patient's yang is still strong, Yu long can be transformed into heat, become damp heat disease. Damp heat disease, such as lingering for a long time damage to Yang Qi, or overuse of cold drugs, may also form Yang deficiency cold dampness certificate. Moreover, in the specific process of disease development, the situation may be more complex, for example, in the case of not too serious damage to yang qi, dampness is heavier than the heat of the case, it may be cold and hot; if the medicine is too cold, it can make the disease from hot to cold, and thereafter the medicine is too hot and dry, and then can make the disease from cold to hot. In real life, many cases of dampness-heat, due to the dampness blockage of qi, blocking yang qi outward, and the performance of cold limbs and fear of cold, that is, belonging to the true heat and false cold evidence. This brings certain difficulties to the actual clinical diagnosis and treatment.
Therefore, in the treatment process of eliminating dampness, it is not only necessary to combine the symptoms, tongue diagnosis judgment, but also need to be based on the pulse diagnosis and the recent changes in the condition of the regression and other comprehensive judgment, so before determining the etiology of the disease, it is not recommended to blindly eliminate dampness.
