If you work under the scorching sun for a long time and suffer from heatstroke, with symptoms such as dizziness, sweating, coughing, and fever, it is yang heatstroke. You can use lotus leaves, watermelon rind, etc. to cool off. ——Don’t be too greedy for coolness indoors during the Yinshu period. If you stay under air conditioning or fans for a long time, you may get too cold and suffer from Yinshu period. The symptoms are: headache, fear of cold, pain in limbs, irritability, hot skin, aversion to cold, and loss of appetite. You can use Huoxiang Zhengqi Water, which will reduce the fever after slightly sweating after taking it. When taking antipyretic drugs such as Huoxiang Zhengqi Water, remember not to be exposed to the wind. 【Aromatherapy to avoid filth】 The trash can at home should be emptied every day. When walking, sitting or lying down, stay away from dirty places such as garbage cans and sewers. Otherwise, bad and foul air can easily enter through the mouth and nose. Wear a special sachet for summer to remove turbidity with fragrance. Or apply a little wind oil, cooling oil, etc. on your body and clothes. You can also light incense on your desk to refresh your mind. In this way, we are surrounded by fragrance. Fragrance is positive energy. With positive energy protecting you, you can certainly prevent yourself from being infected by the plague. The positive energy from cooling oil or incense will be inhaled into our body through the nose and other channels. The turbid air, evil air and disease air in the body will also be eliminated by the fragrance. The aroma can invigorate the spleen and strengthen the functions of the spleen and stomach. Therefore, for people with poor appetite, if the condition is not serious, applying a little cooling oil or wind oil will make their mouths water and their appetite increase. 【Spleen-strengthening and dampness-eliminating method】 During the dog days, the yang energy is on the surface, and the abdomen is cold and empty, which can easily lead to the spleen's dysfunction and cause loss of appetite. The dampness is still very heavy, my head is dizzy, and my limbs are weak. The first method of prevention and treatment is to avoid eating too much cold food. Try not to eat popsicles, ice cream, or drink iced soda or mineral water. 【Heart-nourishing Qi Method】 Try to take a nap to nourish your heart. If you don't have the conditions to take a nap, you can just close your eyes and relax, or stand in a fixed position. If you sweat too much and overwork, resulting in insufficient heart qi and symptoms such as heat intolerance, irritability, drowsiness, and stuffiness, you can use Shengmai Drink. Shengmai Drink was created by Sun Simiao, the king of medicine in the Tang Dynasty. Its ingredients are ginseng, Ophiopogon japonicus, and Schisandra chinensis. The taste is sweet and sour and most people can accept it. To nourish the heart, you must first nourish the qi, so using ginseng to nourish the lungs, nourishing both the heart and the lungs; Because summer heat harms body fluid, we use Ophiopogon japonicus, which is sweet and cold, and can both clear away summer heat and promote the production of body fluid. The sour taste of Schisandra chinensis can astringe yin fluid, induce moderate sweating, and at the same time can resolve phlegm and remove dampness. Shengmai Yin is available in pharmacies as a ready-made medicine, and it is best to choose the one with American ginseng formula. |
