* Strong pain in the back of the head, that is, pain in the back of the head, accompanied by stiff neck rotation.
* Afraid of cold and wind, it is generally comfortable to wear a lot of clothes or cover a big quilt.
* Snuff is clear, white or yellowish. If the nasal congestion does not cause runny nose, it is also a cold to drink some hot water and start to clear your nose.
* Tongue without coating or thin white coating
* If you can feel the pulse, you should be able to detect that it seems to float tightly. Floating pulse means that Yang is on the surface, and you can get it easily.
I went to the drugstore, but it was strange that I couldn't find a suitable Chinese patent medicine for treating cold and cold. The key to treating wind-cold cold is to sweat a little (called warming the heart and relieving exterior syndrome in Chinese medicine). There are many ways, such as sauna, soaking feet in hot water (preferably with some wine), playing basketball (if you still have the strength), covering two quilts, drinking ginger juice, drinking ginger porridge, eating a spicy hot pot and so on. The main prescription of wind-cold cold is Guizhi decoction, the first prescription in Treatise on Febrile Diseases, also known as the king of concoction (Mahuang decoction is also used for wind-cold cold cold, but it is used with caution in the south). Next, I will copy the prescription of Guizhi decoction, and interested friends can write it down for a rainy day.
Ramulus Cinnamomi 10g Radix Paeoniae Alba 10g Radix Glycyrrhizae preparata 6g ginger 3 tablets.
6 red dates
A simple square, but it costs two or three yuan. Master said that after learning Guizhi Decoction, you learned how to prescribe drugs and treat diseases, which is really worth studying.
Wind-heat cold, usually caused by constipation, often belongs to Yangming meridian syndrome. Usually, this is the case. Constipation for two days, sore throat for one or two days, and then cold symptoms. This is a wind-heat cold (it can also be exogenous heat evil, attacking the lungs first). Why constipation can cause a cold? Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the lung is opposite to the large intestine and the defecation is not smooth. If the large intestine affects the lungs, cold symptoms will appear. On the other hand, if the wind-cold cold is not treated in time or improperly, it will also cause constipation or diarrhea. In fact, diarrhea after cold and cold is a disease of traditional Chinese medicine, which belongs to the disease from the outside to the inside. Don't use laxatives casually.
Symptoms of wind-heat cold:
* Sore throat, usually before cold symptoms, and sputum is usually yellow or black.
* thick nose, usually yellow
* The tongue coating is yellow or white, and the tongue body is usually red.
* Constipation
* Body fever, thirst, upset
* Pulse condition is usually several or one flooding pulse, that is, faster than normal pulse, but larger.
To understand the cause of wind-heat cold, the treatment is very simple, and in most cases it is catharsis (with drugs for clearing away heat and relieving exterior symptoms, it usually takes effect quickly). There are many ways, drink some herbal tea; Eat some heat-clearing and antidote, such as Radix Isatidis. Chinese patent medicines include San * * *, Yinqiao Jiedu Tablet+Niuhuang Jiedu Tablet, Radix Isatidis and so on. You can also eat honeysuckle oral liquid to treat wind-heat colds and the like. The representative prescription of Yangming meridian syndrome is Baihu decoction, but I don't advocate using it casually. It belongs to one of the powerful drugs, so I won't copy it here.
Finally, clarify some concepts that friends may confuse.
* Viral cold does not mean wind-heat cold. Viruses are the manifestations of western medicine, while Chinese medicine pays more attention to the human body. Therefore, it is incorrect for some doctors to treat viral colds with wind-heat colds.
* Sore throat is not the key to distinguish wind-heat cold from wind-cold cold, which often causes sore throat.
Similarly, cough, runny nose and high fever cannot be used as the difference between the two colds.
* Don't treat with western medicine and Chinese medicine at the same time. These are two different processing systems. If antibiotics are prescribed, there is no need to drink ginger syrup. Why? Let's think about it. One is to find ways to cool the body, and the other is to find ways to make the body sweat, almost in the opposite direction. Can the body stand it? This will not only reduce the effect of traditional Chinese medicine, but also reduce the effect of western medicine.
Hate cold, that is, patients feel afraid of cold. This symptom may occur in both exogenous and internal injuries. "Su Wen? Theory of Bone Deficiency: "The wind enters from the outside, which makes people feel cold, sweat, headache, and the body hates cold." "medicine? "Bad cold" said: "Bad cold is timid, but scary." It can be seen that there is a difference between being afraid of cold and being afraid of cold. The former is slow to heat up, which is caused by internal injuries and insufficient yang. The latter, warm but not falling, is exogenous, which is caused by exogenous pathogens and Yang Qi's repression. Although there are differences between the two, it is difficult to distinguish between mild aversion to cold, mild aversion to cold and fear of cold, and we can only rely on other concurrent symptoms to distinguish them.
Common syndrome
Exogenous wind-cold is the first symptom: aversion to cold without heat ... >>
Question 2: What food do you eat when you have a cold?
Eating more hot porridge when you have a cold will help you sweat and dissipate heat, dispel wind and cold, and promote the cure of a cold.
At the same time, people with colds have poor appetite and digestive system. Drinking porridge can promote absorption. In addition, some drugs are also very harmful to the stomach, and drinking porridge can protect the gastric mucosa.
Here are four kinds of medicated porridge with cool diet.
Ginger porridge ginger is the best "weapon" to deal with symptoms such as fever, sneezing and expectoration, and it is also a commonly used medicinal material in traditional Chinese medicine, which has the functions of eliminating phlegm, dispelling cold, benefiting qi, removing acne and relieving asthma. Perilla leaves also have the function of dispelling cold, which can be bought in general pharmacies. The specific method is: perilla leaf 10g, 3 slices of ginger. After the rice porridge is boiled, put it in, and then boil it to eat.
The effect of ginger and jujube porridge is similar to that of ginger and soybean porridge. The practice is: put the rice in a pot, fry it dry, then add water, stir the rice evenly with a spoon, add jujube and ginger slices, cook it slowly with low fire until the porridge is cooked, and add a little salt.
Need to be reminded that the above two kinds of porridge have a strong warming effect, and children, people with severe eye congestion and hemorrhoids are not suitable for eating.
20 almond porridge (peeled) and 50 grams of rice. When processing, cook porridge first, add almonds when it is almost cooked, continue to cook until it is cooked, and then add a little sugar or salt. The porridge can relieve cough, asthma, phlegm and dryness.
Fairy porridge: Wash 50 grams of glutinous rice, add appropriate amount of water to make porridge, then add 7 onions (about 30 grams) and 7 slices of ginger (about 15 grams), cook for 5 minutes, then add 50 ml of rice vinegar and stir well. After taking it while it is hot, let your body sweat slightly. This porridge is specially used to treat headache, fatigue, fatigue and fever caused by wind and cold.
Question 3: What food do you eat when you have a cold?
1, ginger
Ginger is warm and pungent, and has the functions of dispelling cold and sweating, relieving exterior syndrome and expelling wind. It is suitable for people with cold and cold. 3 pieces of ginger are commonly used in the people, and the right amount of brown sugar is taken with boiling water, commonly known as ginger brown sugar tea, which will be cured if you drink it often.
Suffering from cold and cold, drinking ginger and brown sugar water can alleviate it. At this time, it is best to peel the ginger. Ginger bark can not give full play to the pungent and warm effects of ginger, and has antiperspirant effect, which is contrary to the therapeutic principle of sweating due to wind-cold cold.
2, scallion
Scallion is warm and pungent, which has the function of regulating body temperature, making sweat glands sweat normally, and can alleviate and prevent colds. Suitable for people with wind-cold type cold.
Suffering from wind-cold and cold, you can take the prescription: 5 knots of scallion, 9 grams of lobster sauce, 3 slices of ginger, and decoction.

It is pointed out in the "Test of Medicinal Properties" that pepper "warms the middle and dissipates cold, expelling wind and sweating". Therefore, peppers should be eaten for colds, and it is best not to eat peppers for wind-heat colds.
Boiling soup with pepper and ginger can also treat cold, especially for patients with indigestion.
4. coriander
Chinese medicine believes that coriander is pungent and warm, enters the lung and spleen meridians, and has the functions of sweating and rash, digestion and qi reduction. Suitable for colds, children's measles or rubella, indigestion, etc. The Book of Food Classics says that it "regulates food and lowers qi". Herbal dietotherapy states "Benefiting five internal organs, nourishing tendons and veins, treating valley, eating and treating intestinal wind".

If you have a cold, you can use garlic, onion and ginger to sweat. Eating garlic in summer can relieve the heat, so anyone with a cold can eat it.
6.perilla frutescens
Perilla is warm and pungent, and has the functions of sweating, dispelling cold and reducing fever. Suitable for people with cold and cold. If people with qi deficiency catch a cold, it is advisable to cook porridge with perilla leaves and rice. Because perilla contains the unique aroma of perilla acetaldehyde, that is, perilla oil essence, which is volatile, it is necessary to add perilla leaves 10g to porridge when it is cooked, and it should not be cooked for a long time.
For patients with mild symptoms of wind-cold common cold, such as chills, stuffy nose and throat discomfort, it is better to take perilla leaf decoction alone. However, due to the relatively mild sweating effect of perilla leaves, patients with obvious symptoms of wind-cold and cold need to be combined with ginger, Pogostemon and other exterior-relieving drugs.
7. Chili
Pepper can prevent and treat colds caused by colds. Grind pepper and cook with brown sugar. The effect is very good and the taste is good. Generally speaking, the medicinal value of white pepper is slightly higher, and the seasoning effect is slightly less. It tastes more spicy than black pepper, so it has a stronger function of dispelling cold and strengthening stomach.
You can make tea with pepper, pepper and tea when you have a cold. When coughing, you can simmer with egg yolk, white pepper and walnut kernel and take it after grinding; When you have a stomachache, you can make pills with pepper, dark plum and red dates and take them with vinegar soup.

Douchi is a traditional Chinese medicine, which is suitable for people with cold, chills, fever, cold-heat headache, nasal congestion, sneezing, abdominal pain and vomiting. Chest tightness and diaphragm tightness, I want to eat if I feel uncomfortable. Douchi also increases people's appetite and promotes absorption with its unique aroma.
