Every time I go out of the clinic, the most common cold is not the most difficult and complicated diseases, but the most common and common cold. Why do children catch colds?
Children's respiratory system is delicate and easy to be violated by external evil
Children's internal organs are delicate, and the lungs themselves are delicate, so they are even more delicate. The skin barrier is not dense, the external function is not solid, and you cannot regulate the cold and warmth yourself. When the climate suddenly changes and the temperature is abnormal, you are easily attacked by external evil and catch a cold.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the lesions of colds are mainly in the lungs. The nose is the orifice of the lungs, and the throat is the gateway of the lungs. If the external evil meridian invades the mouth and nose, Weiyang will be curbed, and a series of cold symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose, and sore throat will occur. If external evil directly invades the lungs, symptoms such as coughing and phlegm will also occur.
The culprit of a cold is "wind"
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it is "wind evil": Whether it is " wind and cold " or " wind and heat cold ", the main reason is "wind". Wind is the main source of all diseases, and it often carries other external evils such as cold, heat, heat, and dampness, which jointly invade the human body.
To give an image analogy, compare the human body to a country, and the wind evil is the leader of the invader, and with his subordinates, he is going to attack other countries.
What is the lung? The lungs are the general, which controls the whole body of energy. It is responsible for distributing the Wei Qi. The Wei Qi is specifically designed to resist external evils, just like soldiers guarding the city, and the lungs are the commander-in-chief of these soldiers. But the general of lung is not very strong, so the city gate is often lost. Once the lung guard is broken, the invader will drive straight into the body and do bad things, causing the child to show symptoms such as coughing and fever. This is a cold.
Western medicine believes that children have incomplete physical development, short nasal cavity, few nose hairs, narrow throat, tender mucosa, rich blood vessels, poor immunity, and are prone to virus infection, causing l to feel. That is to say, the child's respiratory system has not yet developed well and is particularly delicate. has a weak resistance to . If it encounters inducing factors such as changing weather and cold, it will be prone to viruses and catch a cold.
When a child has a cold, his nose is as thin as water. Once you find that you have clear nose, you should quickly warm the yang energy and meridians. At this time, a method of conditioning can improve the circulation of qi and blood in the child's body.
The child has symptoms of clear nose when he has a cold, and publishing a cold is the top priority. There is a Chinese medicine that is both fragrant and delicious and has good effects on relieving exterior and dispelling cold. This is Suye . Traditional Chinese medicine believes that Su leaves are warm in nature and spicy in taste, and have the functions of publishing, dispersing cold and regulating qi, and can be used to regulate wind and cold.
