Dampness in the human body is mostly due to environmental humidity, dietary disorders, spleen deficiency and other reasons.
1. Environmental humidity: the lungs outside the skin and hair, lung qi insufficiency, weiyang (yang qi in the muscle surface) is not solid, if the environment is in a humid environment for a long time, then the dampness seeks the pores into the inner, into the dampness, dampness injection (hair in the deep muscle abscess) trapped in the spleen, spleen qi is trapped not to dampness, long-term disease will even be and the kidneys, the human body is heavy with dampness.
2. Dietary disorders: If you eat cold food for a long time, it will damage the spleen and stomach yang qi, spleen yang is not able to transport and transform water, unable to regulate the balance of water metabolism, so that the drinking of water is not transformed and stagnate in the body, becoming dampness trapped in the spleen, which leads to the body’s heavy dampness.
3. Spleen deficiency: the spleen is the main transportation (the spleen has the function of digesting food, absorbing food essence and water and transferring it to the whole body), which has a significant impact on the distribution of water in the body. If the spleen qi is weak (spleen qi is weak) and loses the ability to transport and transform water and dampness, there is an obstacle to the transportation of fluids, and water-dampness and phlegm-drink (pathological products formed as a result of the impaired metabolism of water and fluids) gather in the body, resulting in the presence of a high level of dampness.
Patients who suffer from heavy dampness should consult a doctor for timely diagnosis and treatment under the doctor’s dialectical guidance.
