Cold and dampness may be harmful to women, such as coldness, drowsiness and irregular menstruation.
Cold-damp body is a group of people who are prone to cold-dampness, and Chinese medicine believes that cold-dampness includes both exogenous cold-dampness and endogenous cold-dampness. Exogenous cold-dampness is the result of cold and dampness, which obstructs the flow of qi and blood. On the other hand, internal cold-dampness is caused by the impaired spleen yang, resulting in the spleen’s inability to move and transform, and cold-dampness is generated internally.
Externally induced cold-dampness is characterized by pain in the joints, muscles and bones. Internal cold-dampness is characterized by coldness, abdominal pain and diarrhea, and swelling.
If there is too much cold-dampness in a woman’s body, it may affect her spirit and cause insomnia or drowsiness. And it is easy to lead to the spleen deficiency, which will make the dampness downstream, easy to cause women to have dysmenorrhea, menstruation is getting less and less, the color is dark, there are blood clots and other abnormalities occur.
When women have cold and damp body, they should go to the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of regular hospitals in time for diagnosis and treatment under the guidance of professional Chinese medicine practitioners.
