What is the difference between symptoms and signs in Chinese medicine?

Often mention disease, we will think of "disease" this word, and the "evidence" of the word understanding is relatively small; therefore, some people think that the Lianhua Qingdian capsule (granules) instructions in the "heat and poison attacking the lungs," there is a typo, should be "disease". There is a typo in ""，it should be """"""""". In fact, the Chinese medicine inside the "evidence" and the symptoms of the "disease" has a different connotation.

Symptoms that is, symptoms, is the body's response to the external manifestations of disease, but also the subjective feeling of physical discomfort, such as fever, headache, cough, fatigue and so on. And the evidence refers to the evidence, is the process of disease development through the look, smell, ask, cut a stage of the disease etiology of a general description of the characteristics of the disease, such as the spleen and stomach weak evidence, qi and blood deficiency, qi stagnation blood stasis evidence.

In fact, each "evidence" will include many symptoms, Chinese medicine in the process of treatment, only after the judgment of the disease development process of the evidence, in order to make accurate treatment, rather than headache, feet and legs.
