Nourishing and Strengthening Earth Pills

Nourishing and Strengthening Earth Pills,Annual Pattern Note: Summer. In early summer, when pathogenic qi is prevalent, rashes may appear throughout the body. In some cases, the rash may subside prematurely due to wind, but the rash may not fully subside, causing heat toxins to attack internally and stagnate in the meridians. This leads to weakness and limpness in the limbs, fatigue and a desire to lie down, yawning accompanied by tears, and a poor appetite. Even slight exertion can trigger fever and bone-consuming heat. By late autumn, the patient gradually regains mental clarity and the illness subsides; however, the same symptoms recur the following summer.
