What does it mean to get angry?

"Shanghuo" is a folk saying, also known as "heat", which can be explained from the theory of traditional Chinese medicine and belongs to the category of heat syndrome in traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the human body's yin and yang are out of balance and internal fire is strong, which leads to internal heat. Therefore, the so-called "fire" describes certain heat symptoms in the body, and "fire" is the internal heat syndrome that occurs after the body's yin and yang are imbalanced. Specific symptoms include red and swollen eyes, erosion of the corners of the mouth, yellow urine, toothache, sore throat, etc. "Getting angry" is more likely to occur in dry climates and continuous hot and humid weather.

It is generally believed that "fire" can be divided into two categories: "actual fire" and "deficient fire". Common clinical types of "fire" include "heart fire" and "liver fire". The solution is to "remove fire", which is the traditional Chinese medicine method of clearing away heat and purging fire. You can take medicines that nourish yin, clear away heat, detoxify and reduce swelling. You can also use traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture, cupping, massage, massage and other therapies. At ordinary times, you should pay attention to the balance between work and rest, and eat less spicy, fried and other hot foods.
