Can the blisters at the corners of the mouth be broken? Do I need Chinese medicine to treat the internal heat?

Do not break the blisters at the corners of your mouth. You need to understand the cause. The most common one is blisters at the corners of your mouth caused by getting angry. Many factors can cause getting angry, such as mood, diet, daily routine, etc., and it needs to be treated from many aspects.

1. "Getting angry" is a special term in traditional Chinese medicine. If you experience symptoms such as dry and sore throat, red eyes, hot nasal cavity, dry mouth and tongue pain, sore mouth corners, nosebleeds, toothache, etc., Chinese medicine believes that it is "getting angry".

2. How is fire produced? One is that the symptoms of "getting angry" are caused by the direct invasion of the "fire evil" in nature; the other is the invisible "fire" in the body that can promote life functions, which loses its normal latent function due to the imbalance of yin and yang, causing the symptoms of "getting angry".

3. There are many specific factors that cause getting angry. Excessive emotional fluctuations, heatstroke, cold, addiction to tobacco and alcohol, excessive consumption of spicy foods such as onions, ginger, garlic, and peppers, greed for greasy foods such as mutton and dog meat, poisoning, lack of sleep, etc. can all cause "heat".

4. Traditional Chinese medicine calls the symptoms of heat in the upper parts of the body, such as dizziness, sore throat, etc., "upper burner fire", the symptoms of heat in the middle parts, such as irritability, thirst, and stomach pain, "middle burner fire", and the symptoms of heat in the lower parts of the body, such as constipation and red urine, "lower burner fire". According to the organs, red, swollen and painful eyes are called "liver fire", nasal flaring and shortness of breath are called "lung fire", mouth and tongue ulcers are called "heart fire", and so on. Combined with the internal conditions, these fires can be divided into two categories: "virtual" and "real". Those with severe symptoms and fierce onset are real fires; those with mild symptoms, long duration and accompanied by hot hands and feet, hot flashes, night sweats, etc. are virtual fires. This classification provides a basis for relevant treatment.

5. There are two points to note when treating "getting angry": First, choose Chinese medicine instead of blindly using Western medicine. Because the former regulates the whole body to cure the root cause, while the latter can only treat the symptoms. The second is to treat the disease based on syndrome differentiation according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine. For example, to treat "middle-burner fire", it is appropriate to use Qingwei San and other medicines; to treat "heart fire", use Daochi San and other medicines; to treat "real fire", use Sanhuang Pian, Niuhuang Jiedu Pian and other medicines to reduce fire. It is best to do this under the guidance of a doctor. If you see "fire", you use Sanhuang tablets or the like, but sometimes it doesn't work and instead causes trouble.
