Many people think that influenza is a minor illness and ignore it, but in fact, countless people die from influenza every year. If the influenza virus invades organs, it can cause serious complications, such as pneumonia, bronchitis, congestive heart failure, gastroenteritis, syncope, hallucinations, etc., with very serious consequences.
In traditional Chinese medicine, this condition is referred to as “external sensation stored inside”. The symptoms include frequent headaches, fatigue and weakness in the limbs, inability to even stand for a while, loss of appetite, fear of wind for a moment, wearing a sweater on hot days, but constantly sweating, and even soaking through underwear. In traditional Chinese medicine terminology, this condition is referred to as “cold heat exchange”, indicating that the body’s functions have begun to be disrupted and the condition is severe.
