When it comes to phlegm, many people will think of Erchen Pill, but Erchen Pill is not a "panacea" for phlegm, and not all phlegm can be dealt with with it. In the view of traditional Chinese medicine, cold can produce phlegm, heat can also produce phlegm, and dampness can also produce phlegm. Then today, Dr. Jia will teach you a trick to get rid of cold phlegm, wet phlegm, and hot phlegm!

Cold phlegm is actually the fluid in our body "frozen", just like the river water will freeze in winter, the cold evil invades the human body, the most likely to consume yang qi, yang qi deficiency, the body fluid infusion will be affected, the flow rate will slow down, and gradually condense into phlegm. At this time, people will become particularly afraid of cold, their limbs are sleepy, their hands and feet are cold, and there will be cough, runny nose, and symptoms such as thin white phlegm when coughing.

This is also easy to understand, just like boiling syrup, the heat evil will burn the fluid in our body more and more viscous, and finally form hot phlegm. Hot phlegm has a characteristic, that is, the amount is small, and the texture is relatively viscous, the color is yellow, and it will be accompanied by symptoms such as sore throat, turbid nose, bitter mouth and dry throat, and the cough is also more violent.

Dampness and phlegm are actually pathological products of fluid metabolism disorders, but dampness is the predecessor of phlegm. To put it simply, dampness is like a puddle of "stagnant water", after it is formed in the body, it will affect the infusion of normal fluid, and slowly for a long time, it will gather into phlegm, at this time it is not enough to remove phlegm, because if the dampness is not removed, phlegm will be produced continuously, so in addition to phlegm, it is also necessary to strengthen the spleen and dissolve dampness, you can refer to a Erchen pill.
