Always having an external wind-cold attack may be due to the insufficiency of positive qi, which is unable to defend against external evils, and needs to be treated with medicines that benefit qi and strengthen the surface, such as Yu Ping Feng San.
In Chinese medicine, it is believed that the Wei qi in the body has the function of defending against external evils. Under normal circumstances, when evils invade the body, the positive qi will fight against them to avoid the onset of illness.
If there is a frequent occurrence of external wind-cold, it is due to the deficiency of positive qi in the body, that is, the defense function of Wei qi is reduced, which belongs to a manifestation of qi deficiency.
People with colds caused by this syndrome will mostly have symptoms such as spontaneous sweating (involuntary sweating during the day, aggravated by the slightest movement of sweating), and mental fatigue (mental exhaustion and physical weakness).
Treatment should be based on detoxifying the surface and dispersing cold (removing the cold from the surface of the muscles) while benefiting the qi and consolidating the surface, and may include medications such as Ginseng-Su Beverage and Jade Screen Fung San.
Consult your doctor for specific medications.
