Doctor's answer:
This should be a phenomenon of "excess heat due to lack of water." The "lack of water" I refer to is not the kind that can be resolved by drinking a few cups or pots of water; rather, it means drinking at least four cups of water every day, for life! If you don't believe it, just persist for a month or so, and you will suddenly realize: "Ah, so that's how it is!" Many illnesses are caused by prolonged lack of water. Many "ailments," such as "excess heat," colds, constipation, frequent urination, urgent urination, phlegm, even age spots, can be managed without medication if they are not severe. Sometimes, they can be regulated simply by drinking more water appropriately. It's a win-win situation—why not give it a try? Persistence and lifelong commitment are the key.
