Symptoms of Stomach Fire

What are the symptoms of excessive stomach fire? When the stomach is hot, the digestion function is overactive, and symptoms such as noise in the stomach, rapid digestion and hunger may occur. Excessive heat and fire will consume a lot of body fluids, leading to internal accumulation of dryness and heat, and the stomach loses its harmony and descending function. Symptoms such as bitter taste in the mouth, thirst and constipation may be seen.

Sometimes it is due to the consumption of yin fluid that leads to stomach deficiency and stomach fire inflammation, which will cause stomach qi to flow backwards and cause nausea.

Stomach fire goes up along the meridians and causes toothache, gingival swelling, or nosebleed. The heat burns the stomach's veins, causing blood to overflow and cause hematemesis.

How to regulate stomach fire

Everyone has already understood the symptoms of excessive stomach fire. Now let’s take a look at how to regulate excessive stomach fire. The main treatment for stomach fire is still conditioning. Relying on drug treatment is bad for our body. As long as we do the following points in daily life, we can alleviate the symptoms of stomach fire to a great extent.

1. Keep hydrated

Drinking warm water regularly can solve many problems, including cooling down the body's internal heat, promoting epidermal circulation, flushing out bacterial colonies in the mouth, inhibiting their growth, and reducing bad breath. Even if you often stay in air-conditioned rooms and the water evaporates less, you still need to drink about 1,300 grams of water a day, and drink more when you sweat. When you have a sour fever, it is suitable to drink lemon water and eat more sour fruits such as citrus fruits. If you don’t like bland water, you can also drink more soothing teas, such as mint, bitter tea, chrysanthemum, honeysuckle and other herbal teas.

2. Eat a light diet

It is recommended that you eat less high-calorie foods, as these foods will provide a certain amount of heat. At the same time, it is recommended not to eat too much low-water food when you have a fire, such as fried foods, nuts, biscuits and barbecue. It is recommended to switch to a low-calorie diet such as vegetables and clear soup, which is of great benefit to our body.

3. Increase body surface heat dissipation

Scraping when suffering from heatstroke can promote the dilation of capillaries, force the dissipation of heat and relieve discomfort.

4. Improve sleep quality

Poor sleep will cause overexertion of the body and make it easy to get angry. Reversing day and night is a big taboo. For people who engage in mental work, blood circulation will be concentrated in the head, causing fatigue and unstable sleep. At this time, foot bath can be used to reduce the heat and help people sleep well.

The method is as follows: first wet your feet with warm water, and then slowly add hot water. It is recommended to soak your feet until you feel hot or sweat slightly. Generally speaking, foot bath can improve our skin's perspiration function. After soaking for a week, you will find that you sweat more and more easily.
