have become "yang" in recent times. After recovery, the most common experience they share is that they have a fever. When they have a fever, they feel groggy, have reduced physical strength, have a sore throat, and have no appetite. When they eat, they want to have a good sleep and have a stuffy nose. It is lucky to be able to sleep 3-4 hours a night.

After having a fever, the first thing everyone thinks of is to reduce the fever. After trying various methods, taking antipyretics is the most popular. However, I went to no less than a dozen pharmacies a few days ago to buy antipyretics for my friends, such as " Ibuprofen , Lianhua Qingwen", etc., but they are really unavailable.

If you have a fever after having "yang", in addition to taking antipyretics, you can also drink boiled water with green onions, boiled soybeans, and cola and ginger soup. Anyway, many folk remedies have come in handy. Are these folk remedies useful?

1. Is fever a disease?

Fever is not a separate disease. Fever is just a symptom of the disease. Many causes in the body can cause fever. In other words, there are many diseases with fever as a symptom, such as common colds.

Fever is an important mechanism for self-protection of our human immune system. It can inhibit the rapid reproduction of bacteria or viruses , thereby controlling the deterioration of the condition and returning our body to normal. In layman's terms, fever is the human body's way of treating itself.

Everyone may have a fever after becoming "yang". This is when the new coronavirus enters our body and begins to multiply in a large area. At this time, our body's immune system is mobilized to fight the virus. In this process, our body temperature will be adjusted. The increase in body temperature will inhibit the reproduction of the virus on the one hand, and on the other hand it will help immune cells quickly move to the place of infection.

After "yang" occurs, if conditions permit, you should let the doctor make a judgment based on your condition. Of course, in actual situations, you can rely on your own experience. If you feel uncomfortable and have a persistent high fever, you will also need to reduce the fever.

2. What are the common folk remedies? Is it really useful to drink boiled soybean water, boiled green onion water, and cola and ginger soup?

Let’s not talk about folk remedies for now. Drink boiled soybean water, boiled green onion water, and cola and ginger soup. None of them can be called folk remedies. Soybean boiled water, scallion boiled water, cola and ginger soup can only be regarded as warm water at best. Through sweating, the heat in the body is discharged, which may help relieve the discomfort symptoms of our body.

As mentioned above, fever is a symptom, it is not a disease, and it is not the object of treatment. Therefore, drinking boiled soybean water, boiled green onion water, cola and ginger soup, etc. may only make our bodies feel better after drinking them. They do not have the effect of reducing fever, that is, they have no effect.

You can think about it this way. After taking antipyretics, it helps us lower our body temperature and control the symptoms of fever. However, the "culprit" that causes fever still needs our body's immunity to remove it.

3. Is it preventive by eating garlic, gargling with salt water, etc.?

There is no basis for spicy food such as garlic to prevent the "new coronavirus" virus infection. Based on the analysis of the current epidemic situation, there is no evidence that eating garlic can prevent the new coronavirus. Although garlic has many health effects, it is indeed a bit "too much" to use it to prevent the new coronavirus.

Salt water gargling does not have this effect. Salt water gargling is good for cleaning the mouth and throat, but there are currently no research results suggesting that salt water has a killing effect on this.

4. How to distinguish between the common cold and new crown ?

Both conditions have symptoms of fever, and COVID-19 patients are more likely to have symptoms such as dry cough, fatigue, and difficulty breathing. Some patients may also experience vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain.

How to further distinguish between COVID-19 and a cold?

can perform COVID-19 antigen testing.

My wife had a cold last week? The whole process lasted for more than 7 days, and she still has a little cough now, but she always wonders if she has been "positive". Since we don't have an antigen test on hand, we just deal with it in a confused way.

Afterwards, I thought back to the week when my wife was sick. If she was "yang", other family members at home, including my parents and me, should also have symptoms one after another. But so far, we are still fine.

According to this logic, my wife is just doing it.

At the end of writing, I would like to say a few words about various "folk remedies" including drinking boiled soybean water, boiled green onion water, cola and ginger soup, etc. We can simply understand them as specific means to "drink more warm water", which may relieve some discomfort to a certain extent, but these folk remedies cannot reduce fever. They do not have the effect of reducing fever, that is, they are ineffective.
