Concept The term heat stroke refers to the common cold that occurs in summer. There are two kinds of colds: common cold and influenza, and heat stroke is a kind of common viral cold in summer. It is not contagious. About 50% of the patients with summer colds are suffering from “heat stroke”. People call the cold that occurs in the summer “heat stroke”, literally, as if “heat” is the cause of the cold, but in fact, the summer cold is usually internal heat, and then the cold of the wind, and often mixed with summer humidity. “Heat cold”, called “summer Yin” in Chinese medicine, belongs to the “four seasonal cold” in the “summer cold”. Red water Xuanzhu” Volume 1: “heat typhoid, cough throat pain, face heat, this has phlegm and fire heat, heat or wind-cold bundle can not be sent over. This heat is the root, cold is the standard.” “The Treatment of the Classical Evidence? Cold and Wind: “Heat and wind, cough and sore throat, nasal congestion and spitting phlegm, add reduction to eliminate wind.” Manifestations Heavy fever, light chills, sweating without relief of fever, headache, head swelling like a cloud, chest tightness, nausea, sneezing, nasal congestion, thick nasal discharge, slight thirst, dryness of the mouth, redness and pain in the throat, cough, yellow and thick sputum, body aches, poor appetite, pale and sticky mouth, yellow urine, sticky and smelly stools, body soreness, joint pain, general weakness, etc. Some patients may also experience vomiting or diarrhea, thin white fur, sticky tongue fur, red tongue edge, and floating or moist pulse. Differences Colds are particularly seasonal, but each season has its own type of bias. For example, winter and spring colds are mostly wind-cold, autumn colds are mostly wind-heat colds, and summer colds are mostly caused by heat and dampness, or what we often call “heat typhoid”. Unlike winter colds, summer colds are rarely caught by others in public places like winter and spring colds. Autumn and winter colds are mainly colds attacked by cold, while summer colds are usually colds with internal heat in the body and wind, often with heat and humidity. And one characteristic of summer cold is that in addition to the general cold symptoms, there are also summer dampness phenomena such as vomiting and diarrhea. The fever of typhoid is heavy fever and light cold, usually the patient does not feel cold, just fever, sweating a lot but sweating out the fever does not go away. In winter, the fever will basically go down once the fever is sweating. Look at the tongue, normal people have a thin and white tongue moss on their tongues, but people with summer humidity colds have a thick, sticky and greasy tongue moss. The headache feels like something is hoisted on the head, the body is lazy, there is no appetite, and even nausea and vomiting; or there is diarrhea, and the stool is particularly smelly. There is also a difference between heat stroke and heat stroke and fire. Heat stroke is a condition in which excessive heat causes profuse sweating, resulting in panic, black eyes, and deficiency. Some patients have a sore throat, dry mouth and thirst, and cough, and their symptoms are similar to those of a fire, but heat stroke is a case of internal heat and external cold, and there will be some upper respiratory symptoms, while a fire does not have the symptoms of cold. Causes Most of the summer colds are not caused by external infectious agents in a public environment like the winter and spring colds, but are caused by a sudden cold in the body. From the internal causes 1, due to the hot climate in summer, the human body’s metabolism is vigorous, energy consumption is high, the human body sweats more, and the secretion of sweat glands will consume a lot of energy; 2, the long daylight hours in summer, the hot and muggy weather also tends to affect people’s sleep and rest, resulting in lack of sleep; 3, in summer, due to the hot climate, people’s appetite suddenly decreases and turns to ingesting light food, which will affect protein supply; 4, summer heat, people are generally lazy to move, too little activity, reduce the time for physical exercise. The main external cause is the desire to cool 1, some people are hot and sweaty with cold water to flush their heads or take cold showers, get cold in the rain. 2, some people love to cool in the shade, in the channel, on the balcony, or even sleep in the open wind chill; sleep without covers, long time blowing fan, etc.. 3, some people for the desire to cool the air conditioning open too long, coupled with the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is too large, the body can not adapt to a moment, resulting in closed sweat. The body is suddenly cooled, so that the blood is cooled, and reflexively caused by the nose and throat momentary ischemia, easy to make the original lurking in the respiratory tract of germs, viruses take advantage of the situation, resulting in the occurrence of colds. Heat typhoid can occur in young and middle-aged people, the elderly, children, it should be said that the resistance of young and middle-aged people is very strong, but in fact, many young and middle-aged people lack of regularity in life, including the diet is not regular, so it is easy to cause a decline in resistance. The immunity of the elderly is relatively low, and children’s organs are not fully developed. Especially for some people who are thin, have low upper respiratory tract resistance, and are busy at work, it is easier to catch a cold. Misconception 1, identify the use of proprietary Chinese medicine: summer colds should first be distinguished from the type, do not take their own medicine. If the summer heat stroke if also like the winter cold to eat antipyretic effect will not be good, and there are certain side effects. For example, ginger, red pond and other sweat medicine, after using it will be as fuel on the fire. Many of the over-the-counter (OTC) Chinese medicines such as Huo Xiang Zheng Qi soft capsules, Pan Lan Gen punch, Yin Qiao Detox tablets, etc. are indeed milder and some of them are more generic, but they still need to be targeted. Huo Xiang Zheng Qi is a very classic medicine to dispel summer dampness and treat heat and cold. It is not scientific to take Huo Xiang Zheng Qi without dialectical treatment. If you have a hot phase, dry mouth, thirst, just eat Huo Xiang Zheng Qi without adding some drugs to clear the heat and detoxify the toxins, is not the right symptoms; Zheng Chai Hu drink is for wind-cold patients with drugs, if given to patients with heat, it is not the right symptoms. Therefore, it is best to ask the pharmacist for guidance before purchasing. 2, prohibit bitter cold fire medicine: some people have a hot typhoid, mistakenly thought that the so-called “internal fire” is too big, they will buy some “fire medicine” to take, this practice is very inappropriate. Because this indiscriminately take bitter cold “defeat fire medicine”, it will lead the evil into the, make the respiratory symptoms intensify, counterproductive, make the condition aggravated. 3, careful use of antibiotics: about 80% of colds are caused by viruses, antibiotics do not work on viruses, as long as the cold does not cause bacterial inflammation, do not apply antibiotics. According to reports, at present, about 75% of our outpatients with colds use antibiotics, and there are more families who use antibiotics. 4, timely treatment of colds, prolonged mutations: young people are strong, the cold is not heavy is possible to carry over, but for children and the elderly is not so, must be treated. As the cold is not cured, it will produce various complications and induce the attack of some diseases, such as chronic bronchitis, asthma, etc.. In the clinic, we often see patients who can’t resist for a few days at home, but when they arrive at the hospital, they are not common colds anymore, but more serious diseases such as pneumonia. This is especially important for the elderly who are already weak and sick. Prognosis If a summer cold does not cause complications, such as special pain in the head or other parts of the body, or a long period of continuous high fever, then the patient only needs to take some medicine such as patchouli, plus enough rest, and will generally be cured in about 1 week. If the fever does not subside for 3 days and the headache is more than 5 days, you should go to the hospital promptly. Treatment 1. At the beginning of fever, the fever is heavy, the chill is light, sweating without relief, headache, head swelling like a cloud, chest tightness, nausea, sneezing, nasal congestion, thick nasal discharge, slight thirst, dry mouth, red and painful throat, cough, yellow and thick sputum, body aches and pains, nausea, poor appetite, light and sticky mouth, yellow urine, sticky and smelly stool, sore body, aching joints, general weakness and other symptoms. You can take some patchouli water (soft capsule). If there are symptoms such as red and sore throat, irritable and thirsty heart, short and red urine, it is advisable to take Chinese medicine such as Banlangen Punch and Yin Qiao Detoxification Tablets. If you also have fever and urine, you can take Liu Yi San together. If the body is hot and sweatless, raw onion can be used to boil the soup and take the medicine. For more severe summer colds, Chinese herbal soup (such as Xinjia Elsholtzholtzholtzholtzholtzini, Sanren Tang, etc.) can be used for treatment. 2. In summer, there is usually internal heat in the body and the symptoms of fire appear. The actual practice of scraping is as follows: take cold water half bowl as lubricant. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things. Then pull the palm of the patient’s hand with the left hand, rub the palm of the right hand from the patient’s elbow joint down to the wrist joint several times, then shake several times, and grab the patient’s lower limbs, rub the right hand from the knee joint to the palm of the foot several times, grab the palm of the foot with both hands and shake several times, and grab the toes and pull them outward to hear the sound of the joint. Finally, let them take patchouli water, the patient will immediately feel comfortable and relaxed. 3, commonly used proprietary Chinese medicine 1) Huo Xiang Zheng Qi Shui (soft capsule): common medicine to dispel summer heat.
