Generally, it refers to the pathological phenomenon of fire rising due to yin deficiency. Yin deficiency has different conditions of yin deficiency of five internal organs and loss of essence, blood and body fluid. Yin deficiency leads to the relative excess of yang, which easily leads to the rise of deficiency fire, so although the signs of fire rising are seen, it is actually caused by yin deficiency. The clinical manifestations are dry throat pain, red cheekbones rising fire, upset and insomnia, rapid pulse and so on.
I have blisters and ulcers in my mouth, toothache and bleeding, dry throat, and feel hot and dry. This is getting angry, and some places are also called virtual fire.
For example, the symptoms of "excessive internal heat" in oral cavity may be cheilitis and angular stomatitis caused by vitamin B2 deficiency, gingival and mucosal bleeding caused by vitamin C deficiency, inflammation caused by bacterial and viral infection, and metabolism and endocrine changes. Different causes require different treatments. Vitamins should be supplemented appropriately for those caused by vitamin deficiency, and antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs should be used for those caused by bacterial infection.
question 2: how do people with asthenic fire maintain "excessive internal heat" is a folk saying, which is generally related to Chinese medicine. However, the term "excessive internal heat" can't be found in the dictionary of Chinese medicine, and it has not been found in Ci Hai and Ci Yuan. Since the outbreak of SARS, there have been more Chinese patent medicines for clearing away heat and toxic materials and health products for clearing away fire and reducing fire, and advertisements for herbal tea that "can't get angry after drinking" have begun to fly, and "getting angry" seems to be a popular word.
how do ordinary people understand "getting angry"? The author has collected the following situations: I am annoyed, can't sleep, and get angry; Big temper, easy to get angry (angry), is getting angry; Dry mouth and sore throat are caused by excessive internal heat; Oral ulcer, tongue erosion, is getting angry; Bitter mouth, bad breath, and swollen gums are caused by excessive internal heat; Dry throat and itchy throat are caused by excessive internal heat; There is a burning sensation in the heart, which is excessive internal heat; With acne on the face and boils on the body, it is getting angry; The face is red, and there is a burst of burning sensation, which is an internal heat; The stool is dry and hard, and it is getting angry; After drinking white wine, the whole body is irritable and hot, which means getting angry.
This kind of understanding is based on intuition of fiery symptoms. Although it is superficial, it is also reasonable. For the treatment of "excessive internal heat", people's understanding is relatively consistent, that is, to choose traditional Chinese medicines for clearing heat, purging fire and detoxifying, such as oral honeysuckle, senna leaf, kudingcha, Niuhuang Jiedu tablets, etc., or to use antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs. The problem is that this method of clearing fire is often ineffective, and most of the people who come to see a doctor or consult belong to this group. In fact, Chinese medicine has a whole set of theories about fire and its pathogenic mechanism. Because people's understanding of "getting angry" is superficial intuition, the treatment method is relatively simple, and the effect is naturally ignored.
In the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine, fire is one of the five elements, representing one of the five basic substances. It runs endlessly with other four substances, such as wood, earth, gold and water, and deduces various complex natural phenomena. "Fire is said to be inflamed" has the abstract characteristics of warmth and upward rising. In the theory of etiology, fire is one of the six exogenous evils, and it is often said with heat and temperature, both of which are caused by yang sheng, but the degree is different. Fire is the extreme heat, and temperature is the gradual heat. In the pathogenesis theory, fire comes from the inside and becomes a pathological product in the body, leading to various pathological changes in human tissues and organs. Endogenous fire, also known as "internal fire" or "internal heat", is caused by excessive yang, yin deficiency and hyperactivity of yang, stagnation of qi and blood, or stagnation of pathogenic factors, resulting in fiery internal disturbance, which leads to imbalance of yin and yang in human body, disorder of viscera functions, and some functions are in a relatively hyperactive pathological state.
to understand "getting angry", we must first distinguish whether it is internal fire or external fire.
External fire is the fiery evil among the six exogenous evils. For example, in the long summer (high temperature season), the body is infected with the summer heat from the sun, causing symptoms such as "fever". Generally speaking, "getting angry" infected from the outside is easier to treat. The pathogenesis of "excessive internal heat" is complicated, the symptoms are chaotic and there are many syndromes, so it is more difficult to treat it. For example, symptoms such as dry throat and "excessive internal fire" of oral ulcer are mostly caused by "internal fire" except for pathogenic heat, which has many different properties, such as deficiency of lung yin and excessive fire due to yin deficiency; Or stagnation of liver qi, disturbance of liver fire, etc. Different causes of disease, of course, different treatments.
Secondly, we should distinguish between real fire and virtual fire in internal fire.
internal fire can be roughly divided into two types: virtual fire and real fire. Excess fire mostly comes from excess yang, or pathogenic stagnation leading to fire, etc., with acute disease and short course of disease. Clinically, it is common to see high fever, red face, Huang Chi in urine, constipation, or mouth erosion and sores. Deficiency fire mostly comes from deficiency of essence and blood, hyperactivity of yang due to yin deficiency, and inflammation of deficiency fire. Its disease is slow and the course of disease is long. Clinically, it is more common to see five kinds of upset fever, or hot flashes in the afternoon, night sweats, insomnia, dry mouth and throat, dizziness and so on. As for treatment, the principle is that excess fire should be diarrhea and deficiency fire should be tonic.
It is worth mentioning that it cannot be simplified to distinguish between real fire and virtual fire in internal fire. In clinic, the actual situation is more complicated for a certain person. For example, some people may not digest their diet, resulting in stagnation and stagnation, but their bodies have always been weak, which is a kind of situation with mixed reality and deficiency; On the other hand, some people may not have a good rest for a few days, be overtired, and be full of yin deficiency and fire, but they have always been strong, which is also a mixture of reality and excess. At this time, the treatment will be both reinforcing and reducing.
Therefore, for "excessive internal fire and external fire", we must not throw all the purgative and pathogenic fire-reducing agents. For health-preserving people, it is not bad for them to learn a little knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, explore some maintenance rules according to their physical conditions, and take a little care of themselves when they encounter minor illnesses such as "getting angry". However, the author still suggests that if you get "excessive internal heat" or suspect that you are suffering from "excessive internal heat", you'd better see a Chinese doctor, which is effective and reliable.

Question 3: What should I do if there is a deficiency fire in my body? What should I do? In fact, deficiency of spleen and stomach can be treated only by diet therapy, and deficiency of yin can be treated by Zhibai Dihuang Pill. Generally, patients with spleen-stomach deficiency and cold pay attention to their diet and will naturally recover. Edible food: food with warm and sweet taste, which has the functions of invigorating spleen and qi, warming stomach and dispelling cold, such as indica rice, mutton, chicken, tripe, pork tripe, chain fish, grass carp, litchi, pepper, leek, fennel, mustard, cinnamon, dried ginger, ginger, pepper, fennel, cardamom and brown sugar. Avoid food: foods that are cold and easy to damage the yang of the spleen and stomach, such as buckwheat, naked oats, mung beans, tofu, spinach, spinach, eggplant, auricularia auricula, lily, lettuce, wax gourd, celery, amaranth, water bamboo, cucumber, bitter gourd, watermelon, persimmon, banana, loquat, pear. Foods that are thick and greasy, difficult to digest, and easy to hinder the transportation of spleen and stomach, such as pork, duck, nail fish, oyster, glutinous rice, etc. Foods with the function of benefiting qi and promoting digestion, which can damage healthy qi and aggravate deficiency and cold, such as hawthorn, radish, Allium macrostemon, coriander, etc. It's also good to drink more tea with a clear fire.
