What to do if your child has a lot of internal heat

Children with severe internal heat can be treated with medication or massage.
Internal heat is heat generated within the fire, and there is a difference between the real and the imaginary. Children with real fire may have symptoms such as high fever, red face, thirst and coldness, yellow and red urine, constipation and so on; children with imaginary fire may have symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweating (sweating abnormally after falling asleep, but sweating stops after waking up), and emaciation and so on.
Drugs: The drugs commonly used for children with solid heat include Guiding Chi San, Diarrhea White San, Clearing the Stomach San, Longdian Diarrhea Liver Tang, etc. The drugs commonly used for children with deficient heat include Tianwang Tonic Heart Dan, Shashen Maidong Tang, Liver Tonic Tang, Zuogui Pill, and Benefiting the Stomach Tang.
Tuina: For solid heat, clearing the stomach meridian, clearing the large intestine, and clearing Tianheshui can be used to clear heat and fire; for deficiency heat, tonifying the kidney meridian, pushing the Yongquan, and transporting the Neiraugong can be used to nourish yin and clear heat.
If massage treatment is needed, it is recommended to go to a professional medical institution; taking the above medicines requires a doctor’s guidance.
