If the tongue coating is yellow and thick and greasy, it means that there is damp heat in the body. You can see that the tongue is sticking out, and the overall feeling is white, and the teeth marks on both sides are very serious.
Second, the skin is rough, dry, itchy and dark yellow.
The skin will be rough, dry and itchy when there is heavy moisture in the body. This is because moisture affects the normal operation of the spleen and stomach, and then water and moisture will stay in the skin, which directly affects the normal metabolism of the skin.

Due to the loss of spleen-qi, it leads to damp and turbid middle-jiao, and the dysfunction of spleen and stomach. Sometimes, if the transportation is not smooth, there will be a phenomenon of sparse spleen-qi, so loose stool is related to moisture, which is also one of the manifestations of heavy moisture.

Therefore, when there is heavy dampness, some related symptoms of the spleen and stomach will appear, such as loss of appetite, nausea and fullness of the stomach.

One of the manifestations of sticky feeling in the mouth, or abnormal taste in the mouth, is that the spleen and stomach are damp and hot, which leads to yang deficiency in the spleen and stomach and turbid qi flooding in the mouth.
Sweet mouth is a symptom of traditional Chinese medicine, which means that the mouth has a sweet feeling. If it is sweet and sticky, and the tongue coating is yellow and greasy, it is the expression of damp-heat in the spleen and stomach.
