What is the problem of coughing in Tomb-Sweeping Day every year? What should I pay attention to?

Tomb-Sweeping Day coughs every year. From the perspective of western medicine, it is: chronic bronchitis; From the analysis of traditional Chinese medicine, it is mostly because the yang of the human body is not well maintained in winter, and the overall immunity of the body is damaged, which leads to cold stagnation in the body and cough when the solar terms change in spring.

Chinese medicine believes that the four seasons are characterized by spring, summer, autumn and winter, and it is very important to "collect" qi in the cold and gloomy winter. With the coming of winter, the yang will hide, the yin will flourish and all activities will tend to stop, so they will save their strength for the next spring. Therefore, people should also conform to nature, conserve energy and enhance immunity. In this way, when everything recovers next spring and all kinds of germs are ready to move, they can better resist their invasion.

This is the truth in Huangdi Neijing that if you don't hide essence in winter, you will get sick in spring. It should be noted that "essence" here refers not only to the essence of reproduction, but also to the basic substances that constitute the human body and maintain life activities, including energy, physical strength, immunity and so on.

Specifically, winter consumption should not be too much, such as fatigue, drinking, sex, emotions and so on. It should be enough; Stay up late and sweat should also be avoided. In addition, when it is cold in winter, people need more energy to keep out the cold. Cold pathogen is most likely to damage kidney yang, and deficiency of kidney qi will lead to deficiency of essence and natural decline of resistance. Therefore, it is very important to tonify kidney and warm yang.

It is recommended to take some foods that can warm yang and benefit kidney, such as mutton, yam, chestnut and longan. , can be appropriately added in three meals. Keep warm from the cold, tonify the kidney and strengthen the body. Fundamentally, improve physical fitness.
