What’s wrong with the old man’s body heat?

If the patient often eats warm and spicy food during the day, it may lead to the body heat, dry stools, mouth and tongue sores and other related symptoms, so that the patient will have a body heat situation. 2. Excessive liver fire: Excessive liver fire may be caused by staying up late, bad emotions, dry weather, etc., and the patient will show symptoms such as body heatiness, loss of appetite, palpitations (rapid heartbeat, often accompanied by panic), chest tightness, and other related symptoms. 3.
