4.Prevention of colds: You can wear sachets, which contain Chinese herbal medicines such as Huoxiang, Peilan, and Peppermint, which have the effects of aromatizing and dissolving dampness, relieving the surface and dissipating cold.
5.Traditional Chinese medicine prevention: According to the individual's constitution, under the guidance of a doctor, take traditional Chinese medicine preventive prescriptions, such as Yuping Fengsan, Yinqiao San, etc.
